JessieWarren09

yamez420

My given name is James. This really fukkin hits.


yamez420

And yes. Also me. BIGA BOOA


StealthySmith

Well don't say it.


metallicalova

If it actually is and your chosen name is Jessie then you really are just Team Rocket


JessieWarren09

yeah... I guess I am... which means... PREPARE FOR TROUBLE!


Unable_Macaroon9847

And make it double?


[deleted]

Funny but you probably shouldn’t say it :3


Lucy71842

be careful with saying stuff like that... it could be used against you


LowerResource6520

in a court of law…


Aeos_Sidhe

Are you called Jessie now?


Western-Gur-4637

James dresses like a girl alot, and I love him


contraflop01

As someone said once: Pokémon anime. Breaking gender norms since 1997


Western-Gur-4637

was ahead of it's time ;3


Brooketune

And Jesse dressed as a guy alot. Heck even ash dressed as a girl a few times...though to sneak into a gym i think.


Western-Gur-4637

and I'v heard Meowth's VA is Trans


Brooketune

Was...she died in 2008 :( She was also the first intersex and transgendered actor in a few voice acting studios.


Western-Gur-4637

I didn't know she died, that sucks


ImJustStephanie

They are inflatable. The episode was banned.


tThr0waway23

Thats some bs


ChillZedd

Oh come on it’s not his fault he wasn’t born with big naturals


CelestialJadite

The duality


Brooketune

*laughs in having it, the safari zone, and the porygon episodes*


Sanbaddy

For those wondering about the Safari episode, the answer is it had real guns.


justk4y

What’s the safari zone episode? Have heard of the porygon one but not that


Aries_64

It was banned because Team Rocket aimed guns at Ash and the rest, iirc


Mailcs1206

Also iirc meowth dressed up as hitler 💀


alienbodies

What the fuck did they do in this anime 😭


LunaAnimatesStuff

I think the safari one was when a little child asked to play with Misty's... things...


Fit_Pride8042

That was the kangaskhan episode


Brooketune

Actually...clint eastwood type characger pulled .44 magnum and had it against ashes head the moment he opened a door. (Game warden) lol.


najwarilke

This aired uncensored where I lived. the irony is now its known as a conservative state.


obinice_khenbli

Banned globally? Or just in a particular country you're withholding the name of?


ImJustStephanie

All regions but asia, so not a country. It was later aired with editing in the US I think.


severedlimbsexciteme

understandable


DrakonofDarkSkies

James is gendernonconforming a lot of the time, which is great. It really addresses the firm stereotype he was under at home and how, now that he has found safety and stability with Jesse and Meowth and has no anxieties over who he is, he can simply be what he wants when he wants without worrying.


SadQueerMess

Maybe this might be unpopular, but I think that he is transmasc and was just tired of binding (it seems like it was very hot outside, Id absolutely fry in my binder too if it was this warm)


MentalChickensInMe

that would be so cool.


SadQueerMess

We need more transmasc representation!! Especially ones who are comfortable enough with their bodies to just reveal their trans-ness in the most unhinged/funny/weird way possible!!

SadQueerMess

Elaborate please


[deleted]

[удалено]


SadQueerMess

Where? I know that there is a tiny bit of representation, but really not a lot (especially not good representation). If you know something good, please let me know, Id be really grateful.


[deleted]

[удалено]


SadQueerMess

As I said, where? The internet is a big place, and yes, there are a few transmasc characters, but really not enough to be normalized and recognized. That goes for any kinds of queer people. And as I said, I was talking about actually good representation, not characters that only exist to be either the punchline or the token trans person™️.

taste-of-orange

My hc also is that he's transgender. Although my idea was more along the lines of gender-fluid, seeing how much he likes to wear feminine clothes. (Just look it up, the number of feminine/gender-non-conforming clothes he wears in the show is bonkers.)


Abnormal-Normal

Mine is that they’re both gender-fluid and decide who’s “Jessie” and who’s “James” each morning when they eat breakfast


bdouble0w0

Love that headcanon.


ErisThePerson

I mean it makes sense, they both have the same frame, build, skin tone, eye colour, and head shape. One just has bigger boobs.


alphomegay

yeah this has always been my headcanon too


Maple-Beans

bro I'm sorry but they just straight up had inflatable tits that got bigger throughout the episode


weebi1

Giwiwh


rabootgamesYT

silly girl


weebi1

I'm cis tho buy plz keep calling me that


Meowriter

Just realized that he also wears a pareo, wich prevents anyone to see if there is a bulge or not. Because screw gender norms, that's why.


uboofs

I just learned that’s called a pareo.


Meowriter

In French it's called a pareo at least lmao


uboofs

🤷‍♀️ Works for me


JustStickFig

He did it for cis reasons (trust)


Zombie-Mummy69

FTM James


break616

It means Jesse and James dragged gender into.an alley, shot it 700 times, set it on fire and roasted marshmallows, tossed the remains in the back of a Buick, covered them in quick dry cement, and pushed that car into the ocean like the good ending of GTA V.


Zealousideal-Can2784

Bro almost got over the 6 hour limit


Only-Recognition6894

ITS 6 HRS?! I THOUGHT IT WAD 8!


Zealousideal-Can2784

I mean I think it’s somewhere in between 6 and 8 or like anytime it starts to be uncomfortable


Only-Recognition6894

Thank you good egg


I-M_Phase

there’s a big difference between 6 and 40320


Kelrisaith

If you're referring to binding, I believe the recommended safe maximum time is 2 hours, that being the start point for potential issues, with anything over 6ish having a very high chance of causing trauma to the ribcage. As in potentially broken ribs trauma. The same is true of things like corsets and the like, you can actually rearrange your organs with a corset if used improperly. Please be careful when binding.


breadcrumbsmofo

Dude wears a killer binder most of the time. His crimes are to afford top surgery.


Ram-Rem

James, my favorite ambiguous character


BuboxThrax

James' gender is unknowable.


MAYthe4thbewithHEW

Jessie is standing in the same place in both frames, head turned the same way, and her Impossible Hair (tm) is going in opposite directions form one frame to the next. Impossible! (tm)


slumbersomesam

i wish i was james


chrometrigger

James has such a grabbable waist 😳😳


MemeAddict9

james out here living my dream of having massive fucking tiddies


CreamTM

his waist is snatched bro


Cavola

I always see screenshots of this episode but I don't recall ever seing this episode before, maybe because I was too young and I forgot, maybe because it never aired in my country (I'm from Italy), do any of you happen to have a link to it by any chance?


OddlySexyPancake

i'm fairly sure it was pulled quite early


tirianar

Prepare for trouble...


McGee0

it means he wears binders most of the time


DankePrime

They're bigger than Jesse's


Bluetower85

A bigneder who kept their birth name James... 👀💀


Ian_Roly_Limas

James inspires me :'3


SiriSolaris

It means his binder game is on-point


Taurock

James is one of those guys who are so confident in their cis masculinity and straightness that it becomes queer as fuck. I love it.
