Mainseries Pokemon characters who can be argued to be bisexual-coded (due to their implied crush on the player)

1. Shauna (Pokemon X and Y)

Kalos takes place in France, and Paris is the city of love. So, in the words of Junichi Masuda, "I wanted to implement some elements of romance with Shauna when playing as a boy and express a deep friendship when playing as a girl."

However, due to the VERY few dialogue changes between female vs male protags (as well as actions Shauna takes that are intended to imply romantic interest being the same across all player types, such as her staying behind with the player in the early-game forest), this can be argued to be unintentional bisexual-coding.

2. Lillie (Pokemon Sun and Moon)

Lillie is implied to have a crush on the player. When the player character is female, on Exeggutor Island, she says, "I want to become a Trainer, and learn all the things you know, Selene..." When the player character is male, she says, "I think... I'd like to become a Trainer, too. And travel together with you, Elio..."

Obviously, the difference between these two dialogues makes it pretty clear that they want her dialogue with Elio to be interpreted as more romantically-inclined. However, much like Shauna, Lillie's actions and dialogue varying VERY little otherwise between female vs male protags can be read as unintentional bisexual-coding.

3. Kieran

Kieran is the first character here to receive absolutely zero dialogue changes across player gender. Additionally, I'd say he's the character that we get the strongest hints regarding romantic feelings towards the player with.

Kieran has multiple moments where he's implied to feel romantically towards the player. These include, but are not limited to:

His sister saying that he's "been all googly-eyed over you" since you met, and that he "wouldn't stop talking about you - even at home. I seriously couldn't get him to shut up." Kieran reacts with embarrassment when she says this to the MC.

Him saying, "You're...you're special," before pausing, then getting embarrassed and rushing to change the subject.

When the MC calls him a friend, he responds, "What?! R-really?! We're friends? F-friends... I feel all tingly and funny hearing that... Ehehe..."

After the MC changes into their festival outfit, Kieran says, "Whoa...", when seeing them for the first time.

The player can even seemingly flirt with Kieran; when Kieran describes letting Ogerpon move into his home, the player can teasingly ask when they, themself, can move in with Kieran.

These are all very common romantic tropes. I think Kieran is the closest thing that we have to a canonically bisexual mainline character at this moment.

4. Carmine

Carmine has a fewer number of specific moments compared to her brother, but she can still be easily read as having feelings for the player.

Her extreme reaction to Drayton asking the player on a date is the best example, with her bringing her hands up to her face, and saying, "A wha-?!" Once Drayton leaves, Carmine continues fuming. (This can also be chalked up to her general dislike towards Drayton and how he can be manipulative, but the fact that it's that request that sets her off specifically makes this also easily read as jealousy.)

And speaking of...

5. Drayton

While, like Kieran and Carmine, Drayton doesn't have any dialogue changes between if the player is male and female, it's not really clear how he actually feels about them.

He tells the player, male or female, that they can go on a cafeteria date to talk, which the game fully acknowledges as a romantic phrase via Carmine's extreme reaction. He also tells the player, "From one charming catch to another..."

This is very obviously him flirting with the player, but, due to his laid-back and just-a-liiittle-bit-sleazy nature, this more so comes across as him trying to tease the player character, rather than anything earnest.

If nothing else, he's at least confirmed to be comfortable with romantically teasing male classmates, which I would consider a win.

A rival tierlist!

Kieran was an archetype I wanted them to do for a long while, where we have a friendly rival turn resentful towards the player due to being constantly one-upped by them, with the added salt in the wound of the player basically living their dream.

Funny goes a long way with me, so that's why Bede, Klara, and Avery are as high as they are, despite their lack of prevalence. Plus, I was so happy to have some jerk rivals after almost 20 years.

I like Shauna the best of the XY rivals since she had the most personality and was actually pretty funny at times.

I generally just forget Trace exists sometimes, but it's probably because I didn't really like Let's GO much. There's more going for him in the games than Trevor or Tierno tho. 😅

DUDE I FOUND THIS OLD DRAWING I DID FROM MAY 2022 MY GOD

Its was a redesign from my old Shauna’s ancestor design and honestly no idea why I never showed it it kinda was there in my drafts and I forgot lol

I’m still hoping if there’s a Shauna’s ancestors or descendant she gets to be a mean girl queen with a very gay canon event (we all know that fireworks event was hella romantic, Serena players remember it)

Shauna gives javi paper from her journal, she even encourages him that there’s no wrong way to journal.

Shauna let’s javi hold the knife for his wolf he makes. When she comes back to the room that night, javi left the knife and the tiny wolf figure he carved and whittled.

Shauna sees Javi and knows deep down that out of everyone, he is the most innocent. I believe this so much because the shroom night while they were hunting Travis, javi calls out to Shauna and she aggressively tells him to RUN. and then he didn’t come back for 2-3 months.

I think this is why she covered her eye and used her sense of touch to find his throat. She can’t watch what she will have to do yet. She knows that even though they are starving and she is will have to prepare for that either way, but she can’t watch it.

Shauna offering the heart to Travis is way more than hoping for the meal, but more than she understands his pain and he gets to make that choice, just as she had to with Jackie’s corpse. Everyone waited for her to make the first move, to give permission even though they all knew they would starve to death if she didn’t.

Shauna knows the pain that comes with being the butcher and she knows the extreme pain and sadness that comes with the loss of someone you love. Not just losing Jackie but she had also just lost her child. I really don’t think she could handle it any differently when she knows that her job is to cut up meat. That’s how they would make it through the winter alive. But her face shows everything before she covers her eyes. More death laid at her feet. More death that she has to prepare as food. More blood on her hands.

The wilderness may have chosen javi (it didn’t really, misty saved Nat. Misty chose.) and the wilderness may have loved Nat the most, but the wilderness has killed for Shauna multiple times and now Shauna has to repay the debt.

The wilderness doesn’t barter or gamble. It requires death to provide a life spared. It always has.
