Ok, so all of my friends have grown out of Pokemon. So I try to keep the fact that I still like it a secret. So whenever I have a friend over, I kick my Pokemon stuff under my bed or sumwhere. Then, someone finds out and tells everyone, and your stuck with the reputation of Pokemon geek. Yes... this topic came out of personal experiences... joy for me!

But has this or something like it ever happened to you?
Truthfully, I couldn't care less what people thought, its not like I go around my school screaming "I love pokemon!" But if they found out I wouldn't care, cause I don't care what people think. Here is an example:

Kid: Oh my gosh! You like pokemon!?!

FT: Yeah, so?

Kid: ...*chuckles*

Yeah, pretty much that is how I would handle it, cause the more embarrassed you are, the more they will laugh.

It was nothing compared to all the times he tortured me before.... He and his friends took turns stepping on my head just because I liked pokemon!!! ._.;;
I'd probably get tortured for liking Pokmon the fact that I'm an imposing 6'4" doesn't mean anything when people know I'm weak

I guess people like us are just martyrs for the cause.

Anyone who would waste their time bothering someone about what they like is just immature. Who gives a care about what they think?! They're just ordinary people that are no better than you. =\ And most likely they have or secretly do still like Pokemon, or maybe even some weird show like BoohBah! (Okay, I'm going too far.) But the point is, be proud of the things that you like. Even if someone insults you, just ignore them. Trust me, I'm sure that they'll forget about it someday, and if they don't, they seriously need to get a life.

I wear my Pokemon shirts all the time, and if any of my friends or relatives come over, my Pokemon things won't be going anywhere. We like something to please ourselves, not anyone else.

well really, the main reason is i sorta have, an arch enemy as u may, who bugs me enough all ready, not like the snikering and stuff like that. the real deal, he calls me names i dare not mention and hits me for some unkown reason. this may make me sound like a wimp, even though im 2wice his size. he finds it enjoyable when i stand up to him. and him finding out i like pokemon is just another thing he can bug me about. (thankgoodness when i go to high school next year, hes goin to a different school!)

I hide it at school. Of course, they would consider me a geek if they knew. Even if I played the games, they'd still laugh at me. Sensitive people. :tired:
I have a friend who used to like Pokemon, but she said it was getting boring. Of course, she usually does that, but gets into it again. She knows I like it, and doesn't make fun of me. She's a true friend. She excepts it. Gah, this reminds me. I haven't talked to my friend in over 3 months! What happened!? I think something musta happened to their phone..... or I dunno. :\
Y'know, Pokemon isn't for little kids. It's not a fad like Yu-Gi-Oh, or something like that. The Cartoon was made for a young audience, but the Trading Cards and Games and such are made for older people. You can't "Grow Out Of It." But still, I hide all evidence that I like Pokemon from the public. No signs. Really, I don't like to be pointed fingers at. I HATE that! :confused:
This is the best signature in the world.(Yeah right)

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE come to these forums! It is in desperate need of new users, and first who come get to be MODs! HAHA!*Falls over* Ahem.......

I remember i used to be ashamed of liking pokemon when i was in 7th and 8th grade, but once i got into high school i don't really give a **** what anyone thinks. I'm 18 now, actually most girls think it's "cute" so that's a plus, other people just think it's weird but it's not jr high anymore i don't get teased, and if i did i could probably find something A LOT worse than "he like spokemon lsolsololololo loliez!!111"

Don't be afraid.

Someone found out that I liked Pokemon a couple years ago and I was teased about it a little but mostly by the popular people that use others as ways to get attention. Teara stepd in and gave them a speech similar to Kayleigh's, since everyone always follows her they left me alone and I even managed to get a couple of them to like it themselves.

This one time I was at the computer in my school and I wrote that I like pokemon. My friend decided to take a peek and she read it OUT LOUD for everyone to hear. That was pretty embarassing, being that mostly everyone else in my school hates pokemon (hiss!). Except it's cool because alot of the guys in my school play the pokemon games and then I have something to talk to them about! :D

exactly. I know, and all of my friends know, I'm a Pokemon/Anime geek, and I'm proud ov it! :D XD LOL
And ocassionally I still ware Pokemon t-shirts 2 school and when i'm really bored I draw Pokemon. ^_^
Heh, I admire your bravery. Most of my friends also know that I'm into pokemon/anime also, though. When they first found out, they didn't believe it... They think I'm too old for it or something? Bah, whatever... no one's too old for Pokemon. =P
