Why was Nessa completely absent in the anime?

They didn't care about actually presenting Galar, it was all about the shitty M8 foundation.

because in Journeys they skipped the whole Galar league for the world championship and I'm gonna guess there's was no way to include Nessa since she's a model

Because Japan is a blatantly racist nation. They’ll never say it in person, but in social media? They’re unapologetically hateful towards dark-skinned characters in fiction, be it natural or tanned.

TPC knows this and didn’t want to tank the ratings.

Nothing to show in the region. Just a bunch of boring routes with nothing on the side to explore.
Towns are empty and just for gyms too.
Pokemon GO was all they had

It has nothing to do with the show’s success. No matter what anyone does, the Japanese will either dislike a dark-skinned character or won’t like them THAT much, just because of how they look like. I’m presenting this case as a bad thing.
>>57925247
If TPC truly had any faith in Roy, they wouldn’t need a second protagonist like Liko to exist and take the spotlight, as well as be front and center in promotional material.

It's the other way around, they didn't have faith in Liko, so they created Roy as a second protagonist in case young boys didn't like having an icky girl as the mc.

Though boys ended up liking Friede more than Roy, so he was ultimately very unnecessary to the show.

Because they wanted to waste more time on shoving Goh and Koharu. That's the problem with current Pokemon anime , current writing staff are too obsessed with shoving their OC. They had interesting characters like Marnie and Bede to carry JN and they wasted it to shove OC that only they cares about.

Unlike YGO & Digimon where writing staff has to come up with an entire setting & cast, Pokemon has the freaking game providing them with interesting idea & characters that they can use. The previous staff understood this advantage which is why they able to run this series for seven generation but current production filled with newbies who wants to make entire anime on their OC and worst part is that their idea for characterization sucks.

I don’t doubt that. However, considering that every young boy (and girl) in Japan are watching Bluey, that shows how out of touch the geriatrics running TPC are.

It depends whether they're attractive or not, look at Black Panther's reception and then at Boyega where he was removed from the poster in china

They could have given Nessa a Vaporeon, Lapras, and G.Kingler to have Kanto privileges

Why Kingler? Her signature Pokémon had already been used as a filler for Leon episode, so what other opportunities did they have to use Gigantamax Kingler?

lmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaao
what the fuck are you smoking?
on every series a fuckton of game characters never got to appear even once and practically all the game characters that did appear were all donut steels skinwalking the game characters
the anime has ALWAYS been a fanfiction festival from day fucking 1
it's easier to count the characters who're actually faithful to their game characters than those who are not

The issue is with the nu-anime treating its OCs like main characters of bigger importance than game characters. The Ash anime had OCs, but they were only around for like an episode or two, and they were gone.

Am I really supposed to give a damn about a badly designed characters like Coral or Dot or everyone else other than Liko and Roy?

The anime covered the game characters that mattered, especially popular one.
