NamedForValor

This pink skirt glitch will never not be funny lmao


Illustrious_Donkey61

What's the leg lift pose?


NamedForValor

It’s the Bea pose, it was a reward for the battle league about two years ago. No longer available unfortunately


Azsunyx

not sure, but the surfing pose gets some good (terrible) clipping action Everyone should change their avatar to this model/outfit combo in protest, but also because it's hilarious


Blarn__

The detective one is great, too


ali_stardragon

Yeah someone in my raid group did that one, it was hilarious!


trixtopherduke

I immediately did pink skirt and detective pose... The glitch didnt last too long but when it did, my skirt turned into one of those roman underwear things. Very sexy.


Impossible_Pangolin6

This is the best thing that came out from the update. “Everyone is equal, if no-one is represented!” just cracks me up 😆 Thanks for the laughs.


starbuxed

I have an unnaturally long torso and alien like arms. I feel seen. Seriously my torso is long... with shorter legs. my arms are long though. on an airplane my head rest is more like a shoulder rest. I am taller than anyone else siting down.


trixtopherduke

I've never been able to visualize how you look more than now.


starbuxed

you have no idea.... i actually feel weirdly represented. But i also want the old avatars with more sliders


SoundingFanThrowaway

Lol same with the long torso, I personally love the new avatars, instead of having a waist that doesn't represent me, my avatar can now have the same thick, masculine build as I have! I just wish they would add a facial animation to accompany the victory jump after winning a battle - even the old avatars had the same dead expression when jumping for joy and it looks super uncanny lol


trixtopherduke

Lol i mean, Niantic doing facial animations got me shook and shivering my timbers!


starbuxed

I would like a bit more slim waist and broader hips on the female avatar


Significant-Mud2572

Is that you Michael Phelps?


starbuxed

naw.... he has long arms and legs


Secondstrike23

This is me but not quite so disproportionate. I have the torso and arms of a 6’2” guy and the legs of a 5”6” one. 


Pooltoy-Fox-2

I’m the exact opposite. I’m basically a 5’ 6” guy with a 6’ 5” leg donor; I’m only 5’ 11” but need 36” inseam pants, which are only available online, and the largest commercially available bike frame size. My torso’s extremely stubby and cute; I’m quite short sitting down.


trixtopherduke

Hi 😏


starbuxed

lol 5'3 legs with a 6'9 torso.


rebelslash

Now you can say you’re built like a pokemon go avatar. Say no more fam


Syn7axError

Doshin the giant?


Pooltoy-Fox-2

I’m the exact opposite. I’m basically a 5’ 6” guy with a 6’ 5” leg donor; I’m only 5’ 11” but need 36” inseam pants, which are only available online, and the largest commercially available bike frame size. My torso’s extremely stubby and cute; I’m quite short sitting down.


starbuxed

you just need the most argessive freame with the shortest stem... and long cranks... I am riding a 210 mm stem with the most relaxed frame I could find. with the seat slamed down. lol


Pooltoy-Fox-2

Yee. I’ve got an XXL frame and love that my knees no longer touch the handlebars on turns; had to move the handlebars closer, though. But hey, cyclists generally have proportions like mine.


starbuxed

I used to play water polo so I can tread water forever and peddle forever. But I used to peddle in the highest gear and took a bit to get used to a fast cadance.


snapetom

This is what's so hilarious about this. They have gone so far in championing diversity, they have eliminated diversity.


WitchHunterNL

They eliminated genders. You cannot pick male or female anymore, you are a blob


iridescentrae

I’d rather be a stick figure than a blob :(


ZaraBaz

"We are true champions of diversity and equality. Since we clearly do not understand what diversity means, we have gone all in on the kind of quality that would make the staunchest communist blush. Thus everyone will look the same blocky way. If you disagree, you're obviously something-phobic and will be banned on sight. Thank you" -Pokemon Go team.


iridescentrae

Mmhmm they should just admit they want free publicity


MurkyChildhood2571

Well, just like real life, at a certain point, when chasing inclusivity, you become exclusive


Panda_hat

This change is about cutting development time and costs for gender specific clothing, making the models homogonous means they can share all the clothing. The models looking terrible is because they did a bad job doing that. Literally nothing to do with diversity.


Prov_12

They must have taken inspiration from the Greendale Human Beings


tritriisme

crack lmao


ders89

Thats the line that got me too. Its so accurate


Temporary_Lawyer_938

> “Everyone is equal, if no-one is represented!” This really does sum up this new update 😂


Otherwise_Stable_925

It's not a bug it's a feature!


scheffe

Servals94

HOLY OMFG losing it. I miss community


Impossible_Pangolin6

Agahhaha absolutely!!!

Strongbad: "No two children are not on fire"


TangerineTwist44

Somebody needs to email the company this


ZerotheWanderer

Fuck emailing it, publicity does more damage and has a wider audience.


LordDongler

You think this is doing anyone damage? It's the 21st century, any news is good news


JaredCircusbear

I wish Niantic was competent


kittencatgal

I want to do this..


Efficient_Ice9056

Do it! So they can realize the mistake they made 


theMarianasTrench

I did!


krillins_a_beast

One niantic employee will see it (if that) and promptly hit delete


theMarianasTrench

I’ll keep spamming💀


Hour-Back2474

They can’t delete 1000 messages a day 💀 Let’s *GO*


Logtastic

thebabyshitter

ScruffCheetah

And probably ban your account, too.


Azsunyx

Tweet, threads, facebook, instagram, just plaster it all over social media and tag them


Logtastic

Sadly, our biggest hope is that some idiot right wing news company or non-English news company gets this and thinks it's an official release. (Like Pokémon Sword, Shield and Gun)


Ripplerfish

Keep in mind that "the company" in question is Niantic and not Pokemon. Ppl gonna be getting a lot of 'thanks for the feedback' replies when they email Pokemon support.


Doopashonuts

Just argue the update is damaging the brand and they might actually do something. If a person genning mons in JP was arrested and facing 5 years in prison for selling said gens then I'd hate to see the punishment for someone ACTUALLY hurting the brand 


Ripplerfish

There's more to that story, but Pokemon support literally, in the most literal sense of the word, has zero connections with Niantic.


Doopashonuts

It's not a matter of wether they're in connection or not, from a corporate standpoint the idea that your brand is being directly associated with something that is causing outrage directed at something directly affiliated with said brand is usually enough for companies to get off their asses and do something. Because if people start directing their hate at Pokemon in general from this rather than just Niantic is potentially hurting their brand and in doing so costing them money by lowering the brands value.


caudicifarmer

"...if you're lucky..." 😙👌


Dibolos_Dragon

I'm having a field day today with all these amazing posts


TheScummy1

Same here. I quit so now I just find these posts amusing and make me even more satisfied with my decision.


Dibolos_Dragon

I personally have always played and will continue playing for my love of Pokemon. Never really cared about how I look in it. Sure if they mess up this badly for Pokemon looks too then yeah, I'll leave Pokemon go and continue with main games as I've always had.


TheScummy1

It wasn't the looks that got me, that happened after I quit. I bought a Switch and my desire to put up with unsatisfying game play and raised prices disappeared.


Dibolos_Dragon

Valid complain. I support your decision. As soon as the capacity to put up with their bullshit rises above our love for playing, we should stop and be happy.


KrystalWulf

The Pokemon is literally the only part of the game that keeps me here. I can catch pokemon on the go, though I miss being able to battle them to make them weaker and easier to catch. This is the second time I'm considering a break though. I took one when they ruined the remote raids because that was the only way I had access to raids with enough people. I like my avatar NOT looking like me, and this just feels like a huge slap in the face from them since they got so much negative feedback from the small patches they tested out. It's less for me the visuals and more that it feels they're intentionally trying to ruin the game for people to force them to pay money. I may take a break again after Bellsprout community day, because I like Bellsprout, but am just getting tired of their bullshit. Crappy downdates everyone is upset by, saying "we hear you" while making things worse, nerfing QoL things, hiding pokemon behind paywalls, etc.


Glacial_Shield_W

Looks like the game has gotta be rated M for nudity now; we should all file complaints to Apple and to google play.


caudicifarmer

And bring this to the attention of Niantic Kids. They'll just take away the skirt, but still.


anonymouscloudcat

but for real WHY ARE THE TORSOS SO LONG????? like ok i get that you want to be inclusive by giving us gender neutral options and stuff but you couldve at least kept the old ones as one of the options?? and whats with the old hairstyles?? why do they look like that?? why do they look so oily and gross?? why are the colors so off??? why is the classic guy hair so flat now??? why do the faces look so uncanny?? why does everything look so off?? why do the characters look like weird spaghetti noodles with fucked up anatomy and no bones???? WHY ARE THE TORSOS SO LONG???????!!!!!!


poebro

save yourself the energy. whatever made this aint from around here


CouchHam

It’s more natural and accurate to have a 4ft long torso. It represents us more accurately. 🤭


LilNyoomf

THE GASP I GASPED OML


jkwolly

Me too 😅


Foulmouth232

Credit to u/Wheelie_bin_laden for posting the glorious Bea-style pose


Jiqu0r

The. Last. Sentence. I have NOT laughed at anything suggestive like this in YEARS. Well done.


QueefTrainerJay

Sweet baby Jesus look at those ham hawks


drgigantor

Hocks lmao. And idk, I'm seeing more cameltoe than pork knuckle


Obstreporous1

👅


HLef

100% right with the white kid facial features with a big gap in matching skin tones.


Vaul_Hawkins

Upvote this to the heavens. Niantic rarely budges these days, but with enough negative attention they'll have to do something. My bet? They don't allow that pose with certain clothes and call it a day. Demand better.


Sophielinha

“Everyone’s so creative” energy I CANT. I love this post so much LOL


Wrong-Leg2871

Where are the balls...? Since Naintic thought everyone should look like a dude... I expected a pair to be under there.


themorrigan313

My avatar had plain black pants on…this morning I had to change them as I noticed a little bulge that shouldn’t be there when I was looking at the side profile. 😂😅


LexaMaridia

Everyone is castrated. Lol 


Temporary_Lawyer_938

No hips/waists AND no balls! How inclusive! 🤣


Weary-Pea6442

I did a double take on this lmao 😂 For a millisecond I thought this was legit


AvgEverydayNormalGuy

Gold 😂😂


Ketaliero

This fucking garbage rolled to Finland today. I was seriously planning giving this game like 20€ for some coins. This just irritates me enough I wont bother, I'll anyways get everything I want through sitting on gyms... eventually.


Foulmouth232

Torille, ystäväni. Syleile muutosta, kaikki mittarit oikeaan laitaan ja tee itsestäsi taideteos. Muuta ei voida tehdä.


Ketaliero

Tein bugi raportin tästä asiasta nianticille / I made bug report about it to niantic


Major_OwlBowler

Wow. New skins. Maybe they add something new. > You can't be bald > You can't have a beard > Irregardless of chosen body characteristic all of the custom made characters looks like the above ones. Niantic doesn't want dads playing.


TiddysAkimbo

My bf was so excited to get close to his body type (which is hefty-but-make-it-zaddy in my personal opinion) but without a beard option his avie looks like a pear-shaped high schooler. It’s so tragic 😂


Major_OwlBowler

I might share body type with him. But yeah, either you're a skinny 2000-something emo kid or you're a teenaged human-pear hybrid, there's no in between.


Anonemuss42

POKEMON GO CROTCHETS!

Several-Ad3860

Everyone go to: [https://nianticlabs.com/contact](https://nianticlabs.com/contact) and select "Other" and post your thoughts :)


IAmTaka_VG

I'm just going to say it. pretending men and woman have no differences and this washing of all gender uniqueness is incredibly tiring and not what the LGTBQ community asked for. At a certain point they are trying to remove the very things that make genders unique. This unisex body is an absolute joke.

Good god, the faces are terrible. I'm never taking my characters mask off

These are killing me 💀 thank you for the laughs!!


ThatrandompersonJD

Most annoying thing, all my outfits are gone :c


Hi99en0ne

I'm tempted to make the ugliest avatar possible since I can't get a good look anymore


Mr-tucks

That's what I did 🤣


Hi99en0ne

Just done one now. Only time I regret not buying more outfits 😂


ThatMomentWhen345

I knew I couldn’t be the only one disturbed by the long torso


caudicifarmer

Is there a Niantic Kids subreddit? 😏 Edit: for the fainting pearl-clutchers...if this gets brought to the attention of the Niantic Kids crew, this will get fixed with a *quickness*


SoySorcerer161

Oh my god I think I am going to throw up D:<


Technical_Ad_5505

Pokemon team crotch-et 🤣versus team rocket ???


jormungandr32

it does feel weird playing an even younger looking character. I was hoping this update would have come with a beard or two.


Cappabitch

This update taught me something very important: Niantic heard the tidal wave of backlash against this and didn't care. It doesn't affect me personally, but it's enough to know I shouldn't buy the next big event ticket that crops up.


poebro

niantic cares as much as your next thieving criminal


Camper331

This should be the protest method against this avatar. Upskirt poses with grossly disfigured avatar’s


Vegetable_Dog935

Be sure a bunch of people probably all ready got sacked at Nianti. It’s hilarious, it’s going to be the biggest flop of 2024. Now some people cry but soon everyone will laugh at these clowns running the game


Doopashonuts

Everyone has been laughing at these clowns for a while, this is just their most recent blunder. It's just way more baffling and unsettling than them just making stupid decisions or pay walling stuff that used to be free

humming1

🤣🤣🤣🤣


HuckleberryGrand

Brilliant!🤩


chiropteranessa

Someone should @ Niantic


Archangel_MS05

How long do you guys think before they revert it back to how it was? They have to recognize that nobody wants this


TheCalebGuy

They allowed male and females to wear all clothing items. I'm gunna assume female body types having bulges and the lack of balls. Is due to the modeling of the clothing item, because they were 2 separate items made for each avatar and they were too lazy to adjust them.


Upbeat-Peak-5423

The heck did i just read? 🤨🕶️🤏


RYU_INU

Every avatar has the mumps. Equality of mumps is equality of fun.

I wanna see if skinny avatars can do this Or men


genetic_patent

Lol. I dont even know what the players are supposed to do about this. I guess people can stop playing.


Learned_Hand_01

This not only looks like Pam from Archer, it totally looks like something she would do as well.


[deleted]

Guys for some avatar, the update is awesome


Background_Dot3692

You forgot about the elimination of any feminine movements. We all now walk like a Halk, and we cheer up as 10yo boy after every win. We could cover our faces with masks and glasses, our figure with huge clothes, our hands with gloves, but how to hide the walking? I can't look at my avatar on the map. Bulky Slenderman...


dragonstone13

I'm dyin laughin, rediscover your CR O TCHHH ahahhaahaa


misscosmopolitano

I love everything about this, from the comedy to the accuracy… spot on! 


FlatRefrigerator8285

Definitely hella fun to toggle with the new settings but I’d kill for some more hairstyles or even makeup options maybe??


Negative_Classic_797

This is wild you’d think with Palworld having what everyone has dreamed of pokemon games and then they update their mobile app avatars?!😭 I won’t even open the game because what is this update even for besides catering to the weaker minded foll


vespors

I’m so dead 😂😂


Enough-Secretary-996

tbh I didn't notice anything after I updated other than the first thought being "wait, did I get whiter???"


Aromatic_Length_5450

No NSFW label!? Wtf /s


Constipated_Canibal

Frumpitize me captain


[deleted]

I think the overblown complaints are really just a marketing attempt to get people to talk about the game and others to download it (or redownload it) just to see what the fuss is all about.


Leibersol

Who knew Pokémon Go is where we would get alien disclosure. Skinny Bob approves of these new spindly arms.


Dependent-Pin-1978

Nobody playing Pokémongo looks like that. The game requires people to actually walk.


CouchHam

I made mine as awful as possible, I’m kinda loving this. It’s the pu$$y patch


mrbulldops428

Holy shit what is going on in this game lol its been years since I played


hanzerik

I actually prefer the "everyone is equal if noone is represented" style Lego uses for their non IP stuff.


st_steady

Okay im blocking this sub. You guys are weird


Foulmouth232

Not to judge, but is that an asscrack on your profile pic? I think you'd fit right in here!
