And Mr. Mime is a clown/mime. Which means he has paint on his face. He could possibly be a black, too,

Hah. If you don't know why it was changed, do not act like you have anything to say about it! Jeez....
This is the reason it was changed. People were offended, and thought it was a Black Stereotype, so they changed it to purple. People were ok with the change.
If you don't know something, don't act like or say that you do. :P
Oh, and for the record, I have an African American friend that plays Pokemon. His sprite isn't African American, but he is. That makes him an African American trainer, right? ;P

Yes, blacks can also be evil. However, in the Pokemon case, its the japanese people who were evil.

It's not your place to tell if soemone is racist, can yuo give me a percentage from a website saying a big chunk of japanese people are racist?
It's not your place to say peoplr are racist if you have no proof, and Jynx, or no black trainers is not proof.
-Done dude-
