I remember playing Omega Ruby shortly after it came out and being vaguely aroused by the male Tubers (pictured here). It came out in 2014, so I would have been at least starting puberty by then, and I was definitely old enough that my attraction to him would have been seen as aberrant. My sex education was surprisingly comprehensive for a Mormon, as I was told about the mechanics of PIV sex, but I didn’t fully made the connection that my arousal for the Tuber was sexual in nature. (My hydrophilia was also involved somehow, so that probably confused things.) To be fair, I wasn’t having fantasies about sticking my dick in him or anything, it was, again, just vague feelings of arousal. I don’t think I even started having overtly sexual fantasies until my later years of high school. (Which I chalk up to a combination of being autistic and acespec and classic Mormon sexual repression.)
Yes. In fact, I’m playing through Alpha Sapphire (can’t find my old Omega Ruby cart) for reasons that include “doing research for a fic where May fucks a Tuber inside Sea Mauville.”
