First off: Yes, I'm aware the unicorns and the like are from before MLP...but MLP is one of the only works I'm aware of that uses the term "alicorn" to describe a unicorn/pegasus hybrid, and the character design will be based off of the ponies, in a way.

Second: Well, think about it-if pink can mean masculine and blue can mean feminine, and those are the colors of the female and male Pokemon (respectively), won't that kinda be role reversal in itself?
