How likely are you to tell others that you're a Pokemon fan IRL?

I unapologetically wear Pokemon shirts and march. I don't mind people in my life knowing I like Pokemon and talking to them about it. :)

I won't bring it up unprovoked though lol.
 
Uh, well, if it cropped up in the conversation then yeah, but I wouldn't blurt it out on its own. There's no shame in it, at least. It's a phenomenon! Like cats, except not crappy.

But if I was trying to charm someone who was more mature, I wouldn't mention it nor any other thing that could be misconstrued as being childish. That's just me being a creep, though. Ah yeah.
 
Very likely - I'm not easily embarrassed. Just today I went to the library and took out a copy of My Girlfriend is a T-Rex. When the librarian saw the title we both just laughed it off.
 
It's not like the first thing I tell everybody is that I'm a Pokémon fan, but I'm not exactly hiding it either. I mean, I've been playing Pokémon games during my breaks at my uni. xD

A funny story is that I was making a map on my laptop in the bus last week and the guy next to me recognized the FRLG tiles I was using. It was the perfect ice-breaker for a good chat we had for the next ~20 minutes before we got to his stop!
 
Seeing as how my wedding band has pikachu, bulbasaur, squirtle, and charmander on it i am not shy in the the slightest.
