Because they’re already including heteronormative stuff so it evidently isn’t an issue for them?
So much this. It's my biggest gripe in Pokemon tbh.
Like I am totally fine to not include any romance whatsoever because "it's a kids game" ... and then I got to the Dimensional Research Lab in SM, and Kukui's all like, "oh yea, this is my wife!" ????
And then there was weird battle you can have in Konikoni where some office worker is agonising about his love for a woman, and then the two pikachu (clearly male and female) who get "married" at Hano resort.
Like I'm not being funny, but if you want to play the romance/video games separation card, you can't just apply that to LGBT+ people and give the straight stuff a free pass. That's just homophobia.
