Follows Earthbending twins after a world-shattering disaster where one discovers she’s the new Avatar after Korra
Korra featured both the Republic City police, founded by the first ever metal bender and a place where metal benders are preferred, and later a city full of metal benders. It looks like there’s a lot of metal benders because they showed us all the metal benders.
I mean if you have enough to populate an entire city state and enough to recruit an entire metropolitan police force from that seems like a pretty damn massive part of the population to me.
Doesn’t mean the rest of the world is like that. Metalbending is literally the heart of Zaofu’s culture, as it is with the RCPD (being founded/run by the first metalbender).
It’s not uncommon I bet, but I wouldn’t assume most earthbenders are metalbenders, either. We’ve seen extremely potent professional benders like Bolin that can’t pick it up, and he’s the top 99th percentile of earthbenders at least.
Same with lightning bending. I don’t get why people assumed it was common in LoK just because a few factory workers and mentee of a gangster boss (Mako) could do it, when powerful firebenders like Korra, P’Li, Zuko and such apparently can’t.
