I don’t have any power on Pokemon Showdown — only Smogon
I do not find the name offensive as it’s likely about the Pokemon Palafin, not the country Palestine. I do think our moderation teams should all support Palestinian people and oppose the ongoing genocide as strongly as possible though

ggs to all of my opponents. It was an honor to play so many nice and interested people. Being able to make some friends along the way and get valuable feedback about the metagame is awesome, too.

-rebuilding our content management system and redesigning our home page. Having worked closely with him for years, I can say with certainty that he is literally just a stressed-out mid-30s guy who wants to crawl in a hole and code and not engage with the public, not some purveyor of Nazi dogwhistles

-possibly say on the topic that would rectify those wrongs. People who are upset about this are likely to remain upset, regardless of what he says or does, and even things like rebranding will likely be painted as an attempt to cover up the site's past.
