My Mawile made a Tumblr and now I'm here. I am a BIG fan of Pokemon, it's quite litterally my hyperfixation. I'm also in many other fandoms like: Cookie Run, Undertale/Deltarune, Battle Kitty, Canimals, and more! I will ocassionally post as a Mawile because I'm just here to vibe.
I blame PMSeymour for me joining
Here’s my very late Brave day art!!! Funny thing is that I started the first drawing before the second but took a break and did the second (of which I struggled with the body for almost an hour according to Timelapse) then had to scribble out the old human design from the first-
(This isn’t directed at people just making birthday fanart btw. Also if you didn’t know this already you’re fine, I’m just spreading awareness)
Usually the age misconception thing is just kind of an annoyance to me, but as the anniversaries near 18, I know that SOME PEOPLE are gonna use it as an excuse to be creeps about him. So, I’m gonna make a post clarifying it since some people can’t be bothered to remember basic information about this game’s main character.
Brave day, while marketed as GingerBrave’s birthday, is canonically NOT. It’s simply an anniversary of the franchise, and they celebrate it with Brave specifically because he’s the mascot and MC. However, they have been kinda toning down the whole “it’s GingerBrave’s birthday!” thing lately because I think Devsis realized that next year is probably gonna be a disaster if they don’t.
The last time I tried explaining this to someone, they, for SOME REASON, refused to count the wiki as a valid source, so I have even MORE evidence if you still don’t believe me.
The update with awakened Dark Cacao and BY ep 4 released on June 28th, 2024. This was right after GingerBrave’s “15th birthday.” The update with awakened Hollyberry and BY ep 10 released on June 4th, 2025. GingerBrave had his “16th birthday” during that update. But, as we know, those story events happened simultaneously; NO TIME PASSED. The story literally just doesn’t move in pace with irl time, so why would GingerBrave age in irl time?
So anyways, that begs the question of how old he actually is. Well, that’s actually two questions, because how old he looks and acts is different than how long ago he was baked.
To answer the latter first, it’s probable that he was baked (in Kingdom, this one isn’t for other games) a little over a year ago from the current point in the timeline. That’s because in Black Sapphire’s year-end dinner show, he recounts everything that happened SINCE GINGERBRAVE BEING BAKED and ends it off with “that’s what happened during the past year!”
I am taking this with a grain of salt because it is Black Sapphire, but that seems like a weird thing to have lied about.
Anyways, on to the part that actually matters.
Based on how he looks and acts, he does act like a child. He’s overly optimistic, very friendly, and doesn’t grasp some things like how older characters do. This is the kind of guy to say “awesome sauce” in an important diplomatic negotiation, he’s not gonna be an adult ANY time soon 😭
However, I can confidently say he’s around 10-12, especially leaning towards 12, for a couple of reasons.
For one, it fits with how he looks and acts. Devsis was also very comfortable saying it was actually his birthday in those years. Also, he literally has a costume with a 12 on it. They didn’t do that for any other year!
In conclusion, HE’S A KID! A 7th grader at the oldest! Stop being weird about him.
If you see anyone making an honest mistake, LET THEM KNOW. And if you see anyone genuinely being a pedophile on purpose, call them out and block them.
Uhhh I think that’s it! Reblog so more people see this because I have seen a slight uptick in people being weird about his age now that it’s the 17th anniversary

I’ve been ragebaiting Door dash by ordering little and infrequently then deleting the app after i get my food and it charges me. So much so that they sent me a coupon that was specifically for MY account because my average for DoorDashing is once every two months with a max of like $20 (including tip) on an order
