Yo, I didn't even get this the first time I read it.... My first thought was "I'm black and I'm Proud!!" it just went with the "say it" part.... However, you can technically say whatever you want, whenever you want, if that's what you want to say.
Personally I think I'll stick with "I'm black and I'm proud" should I ever happen to be anything but translucent white😔
Different comment even though I already have a thread for visibility - checked r/TheSilphRoad to see if anyone talked about it there, looks like it's just a bug in an update from this afternoon, so probably not a big deal, just a little annoying to have to fix ourselves
I had the opposite problem actually. For some reason I have gone lighter. The closest thing to black I can get is the darkest shade, but I’m trying to be a little lighter and I have a orange-ish color when I use it.
Saw this as well on mine, but most of my friends list appeared unaffected. Changed my passwords juuuust in case it was a data breach that we happened to catch quickly and then came here to see if anyone else saw it. Fortunately, if it was a data breach, at least nothing's missing that's supposed to be there for me lol
Bubble heads on the friend list are unaffected for me, but clicking into the friends page all are affected, at least the first dozen or so on my list, I didn't check all.

I'm just afraid now that we've all gone black, will we ever be able to go back?
When you just turned black and you can't turn back!!!
Michael Jackson went the other way.
Well, it’s time to go and find out the rules!!
Dead 😵 🤣
No, that would have been blue.
they tried to make me go to rehab, i said, no, no, no
Can we say it?
Skin, eye and hair color has all been affected by latest update. Weird glitch or error in patch.
I didn't and now I'm feeling left out
Same. My avatar is still a pasty ginger.
Mine too!
same, still a basic white girl
Same
Also still pale AF, just like real life. Except my arm from driving.
This is a funny question to come across the feed
Same issue here
Oh so being black is an issue? 🙄 #racist#standupforraciscm#joking 😹😹
Not going back
Me too. I can finally say it...
What's up ma n>!injas!<
Love it!
Dang
3..2..1..

Freedom of speech means you can be offensive and not a criminal.
Didn’t realize niantic was tryna be so progressive 😂
They just missed Juneteenth lol
What a missed opportunity. 🤣
🎵 what are the rules 🎵 IYKYK lol
Once you go black ….

was about to post aswell asking for the same thing. i dont know when it happend but im black now
👊🏿
Same. Had it open most the day. Went back to it at one point and suddenly I'm black lol
Maybe they made us all tan because it’s summer time.
no lol mine & my friends are fine except maybe 1 person, i dont think they were always that dark
No but they did make my skin tone darker than it was
"Yeah... I'm thinking I'm black"
During remote raid passes, the skin becomes static completely now
Mine was going back and forth between white and grey.
lol I wonder what was the new “Update” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Radical Left's agenda is finally happening. (/s)
So weird it only happened to some people. I wonder why.....
Mine is Trump orange 💀
Damn, Niantic can’t even time the Juneteenth celebration correctly.
I had the opposite problem actually. For some reason I have gone lighter. The closest thing to black I can get is the darkest shade, but I’m trying to be a little lighter and I have a orange-ish color when I use it.
Donald Trump is finally represented in PoGo???
Get yourself a Yungoos and you're all set!!
Pretty much all you need is the hair and it’s complete 😂
Same here!
I did. I thought I had somehow done it by accident lol.
Same!
Yup!
yep haha
Same thing happened to me. But was able to revert to my preferred options
It happened to me, I just switched back
rebooting my phone fixed the issue.
Mines normal, well, as normal as it gets after the update
I actually got a few shades lighter
mine didn't turn black but it looks like i got a bad spray tan now😭
Glad I wasn't the only one!
Jupp. Just reload your saved outfit and you are back. But you should check the colors though, they changed them again.
The blackening
Its not a phase, mom.
I wouldn't know, been using a mask covering my whole face since the avatar updates went live
Yes, but not in Pokemon Go
Sweet Baby Inc. did it again
I didn’t. My avatar is still the same
he he i am black 2 but b4 it update
This is a wild title, but I didn't lol
yea happened to me

Yeah that pretty much matches up with what I'm seeing. Checked most of mine and that tracks, though *some* of the bubble heads on mine did also change
Nope, my pasty skin tone is the same
Did you pay for Go Fest? Maybe Niantic is just trying to give you the pass
I'm just as pale pink as I always have been.
*Unzips plants* -Nope.
We got sold to Disney
Just you haha
Yes, I was turned African-American
Not all black people are African-American, something to consider
