ROM Hacks with disabled people? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

This is an odd question, but I recently just realized Pokemon has very little disabled representation. I find it especially odd because Pokemon has so many amazing chances for representation, and they love the small details showing people's relationship with their pokemon. Like people who are wheelchair bound could have Machamps to help carry them up the stairs. Or someone who is hard of hearing having a Chatot relay what other people say. Or having an Espeon as a seeing eye pokemon and an emotional support. I'm curious if anybody has decided to include any of these sorts of ideas into a ROM hack.

You don't understand world building if you're making this comment. Go dick around somewhere else.

Ad hominems nice, if you werent a hypocrite u would complain about lack of civil engineers too, youre dicking around in pokemon subreddits about blind fuckin people and projecting

Edit: and since u like world building guess what, you need a civil engineer to build absolutely anything 😛

If you actually played the games, you'd know there are civil engineers and programmers in the game responsible for things you use. Bill? Any of the major bridges in any region? You make no sense and are just being a stupid troll.
