    other mods do NOT move this thread!

    do y'all still play and/or care about pokemon or nah
    are you posting around here more for nostalgia or because you still have an active interest in playing the games?
     
    nostalgia

    swsh were a complete disappointment (or maybe im finally outgrowing the games)

    Still play, unable to stop. Wish I could, but I get anxious thinking about it. I hate what Pokemon has become, but I cannot stop buying and playing the games for some reason.

    Maybe I just like complaining about them.
     
    I've had almost no interest for the past two generations but I still appreciate the older games and enjoy talking about them so throw me in with the nostalgia crowd. I like keeping tabs on the anime too, or at least what avid watchers have to say about it.
     
    I hate to admit im still into pokemon at nearly 30 but
     
    My interest fell off for a while but now I'm heavily into Gen 4. I started playing Gen 4 OU on showdown, then started watching the Sinnoh anime, then started playing Platinum.
     
    i get super hyped for a game's release, play it, and then never finish it. i still haven't finished Shield a month later orz. Ultra Moon is still in its box, and I think I barely beat the E4. somehow I just lose interest.
     
    I haven't bought any of the games since Heart Gold. It was partly due to interest loss and partly because of having other priorities. I sometimes still play on emulators, though.

    Mostly I still enjoy the characters and Pokémon designs/concepts. And I watched The XY seasons for a time and then the Sun/Moon seasons, but I haven't really kept up with the swsh Pokémon except for the starters' first stage, Corviknight, the Fox Pokémon and Woloo. Plus the galarian forms.

    As for why I post in this community (if I understood the question correctly) it's more because it's a friendly place with a good variety of topics to talk about besides just Pokémon.
     
    Hmm. It's an interesting thread. I love Pokemon in general, and I still have yet to play gen 8 despite it's mixed bag reviews. i have some Pokemon games for the 3DS both physical and digital (Silver, Crystal, X, Omega Ruby, Ultra Moon) and two older games that I own a cartridge of for some odd reason (Blue, Emerald). My favorite regions are Johto and Kalos. I like the creative side of the fandom, though I am a silent lurker in the art topics, I love looking at the art. I also like the community here at PC specifically the Chit chat topic. I try to be active on there but it's hard sometimes. Idk....

    Both tbh.
     
    I still love pokemon as a concept and world, it's a great RP setting, base for fiction and art and other such creative endeavors. But I feel like Ultra Moon might end up being the last game I bought. Or... sinnoh remakes...

    I'm chatting more nonpokemon things through this community than pokemonstuff.
     
    hell yeah. i dont know what it is about the pokemon game formula, but it keeps me interested each time, even though i know theres probably nothing new.
     
    I think I will always have an interest in Pokémon—it hasn't faded yet and won't anytime soon! I can't play any Switch releases until I've bought the console but I do get incredibly hyped when new games come out. If the next batch are Sinnoh remakes, I'd be ecstatic about that!

    In fact, I'm interested enough that I'm thinking of writing fanfics again. I just don't have a lot of time for games lately, unlike the old days. :<
