    I'm 16 and I still buy every new Pokemon game that comes out (well if it's like Ruby and Sapphire I get one and my brother gets the other). I still buy every new Pokemon movie that comes out. I still buy packs of cards every now and then. I still watch the show every Saturday.
    Sure I liked Pokemon better a few years ago when I was really into it. But me not liking it as much now dosen't mean I'm going to stop any time soon. Just 4 years till I'm 20 and I think I'll still be liking it 4 years from now.

    If you like something then you shouldn't slap a age limit on it. Saying "Ok Pokemon is for 10 year olds, I'm 16 now so I have to stop liking it". If you like Pokemon then keep with it. One day you might grow out of it or find something better. But untill then like it as much as you can/want, because when it's gone it's gone.

    Well, I'm 18 and I have been with pokemon since the very beginning, of course, not many people I happen to know in real life know about this, but it doesn't really bother me that much. Of course, I gave up on the abysmal anime after the Johto League episodes... I still like the games though and I love the Pokemon... well most of them.

    I was in high school when Pokemon became popular, so I guess I got off easy. However, it was at that same time I was more or less indifferent to the concept. Oh well.

    Woohoo, more twenty somethings, and all guys to boot:3!
    For all you sixteen year olds here, look well, for we may very well be what you will be in 5-7 years.
    I say don't just give up on something: If you like it, and are bringing no harm to others with it, hang on to your fandom!
    It's nice to be able to count on something nice like pokemon when the world gets you down sometimes...

    Lol.

    Just because you grow out doesn't always mean you have to grow up. And even if you DO grow up a little, you're free to choose the ways in which you do it. You're a unique individual. Don't let society dictate for you what you like and what you don't like. Having your own opinion is a freedom we take for granted here in the western world. Cherish it. And don't be ashamed of who you are. If someone laughs at you for liking Pokemon, just laugh back and say, "yeah, I'm a nut, I guess. But I'm a happy nut!" That's what I do, but individual results may vary, lol.

    Btw:
    Age: 23
    Poke-addictions:
    --All the video games (Gimme!!)
    --The manga (the ones by Toshihiro Ono... I like his best. :P)
    --I saw the first season of the anime and then I was too busy to watch TV for a while so I stopped watching after they got too far in the series for me to keep up. I might still like it. I don't know. :/

    I love some of the posts in this^^ I totally agree with you that if you like something you can't just stop liking it when you get older. I myself like pokemon alot, I'm not completly obsessed like I used to be a few years ago but I still like it quite alot. There are many people who you'd never guess to like cartoons and certain animes. I have a few friends that act really mature and you'd never guess that they like them but when it's just me and them they know that I won't call them immature or anything because I don't hide the fact that I like these shows^^. I'll be 16 in a few months.

    hey i sixteen and i still love pokemon. i buy the games and watch the show. I stop buying the cards but i still have them.

    as of school. a few of my friends know i like pokemon. i made a animations scene with deoxys and gengar figthing. it preety cool!

    what i find sad is my cousin who is about to turn 12 doesn't like pokemon and my sister started to hate it at age 10. they were fans when they were 8. I was a fan since age 10. I didn't believe that i stay a fan longer then them. i love the show and my cousin just makes fun of me for that love but i just tell him. "So what. I like what i like so what."

    I stay loyal to what i love and what reborn my love for video games and brougth me into the world of anime.

    POKEMON FAN FOR LIFE!!!! VIVA CHARIZARD!!!!
