‘Pokémon’ gives transphobic judge a lifetime ban

A certified judge has been banned from participating in any official Pokémon event due to “transphobic behavior” towards a group of trans players in an official event that happened last weekend.

PokéBeach reported that multiple players filed complaints through Pokémon’s official support system after the judge in question allegedly verbally harassed a group of trans players during and outside the Vancouver Regionals. According to players, the Texan judge approached them and asked for feedback on how judges in these events could be inclusive. But then the conversation began to sour as the judge commented on the players’ appearances and began to talk over them.
