Will there ever be an option to choose an older character in Pokemon games? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! For as long as Pokemon games have existed, the player character has always been a young child. As the games developed, more options were added. The gender could be chosen, and the characters could be customized. But, the player has always been a child. Even though fans of the series have gotten older, the player character has not. So will there ever be a way to choose your age? Well, this isn't likely. Not only would it be a tad difficult to change your character's age, but the game centers around your character being a kid. The rivals are made to be a similar age, and everyone treats the character like a child. Changing your age would mean the other characters would have to change as well, which would be far more work than it's worth. It wouldn't be fair to just make the player characters older either, since kids do still play the games. At the end of the day, the Pokemon games are always aiming for a younger audience; which is why some fans outgrow the games as they get older. I personally would like to see a Pokemon game that lets you choose what age you play as, but I don't think it's possible. However, I could be wrong about this. These are mostly just my thoughts on this topic, anyways. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
