Do you buy your Pokémon games from a physical store, such as GameStop or Wal-Mart, or do you order online, because you're afraid of human interaction that involves revealing you play Pokémon?

why are you people so scared of revealing you like pokemon?

just shrug it off. So long as you're not like an actual basement dweller that wears ash cosplay on your way to eb games and you look like you function to society, i don't see why you can't like pokemon publicly

I pick up the pokemon midnight releases because it's hilarious to pull out my stalls to the walls team and fight some little 10 year old with a nerf insulated DS.

At the BW release, I walled a 6 arceus team with a toxic gastrodon and this little kid was so fucking frustrated but couldnt do anything about it because his mom was standing right beside him (not paying attention on her cell phone). He knew if he threw a tantrum he would be yanked out of line. It was a great hour killer.

Go to the store, no one cares what you buy and most people working at a games store understand that it appeals to adults too

It can't be that difficult for you guys can it? If she or anyone else was judging me then I don't think it really matters, I'm probably not going to see them again. Even if I do I doubt I'll remember them or that they'll remember me.

Store. Its a nice store that also sells old nes and game boy games. Got over half of my pokemon gamea there. Also, its the best way to get the games i want a few days early. As the store is not legaly bound by the release date.

There are adults that buy games for their kids all the time. A GameStop employee has no way to know for whom you're purchasing the game. They're minimum wage service employees, they don't give a shit about anything other than just making it to quitting time.

Digital download because the nearest Gamestop is a 30 minute bus ride that I never feel like bothering with and I can't drive.

The people working at stores selling games don't give a fuck who you are, or what you buy and play. They get more than enough weirdos to be bothered by every single one of them.

The store. I'd rather pay bus fare than shipping. and call me autistic, but i have this itch to make sure my game copy comes with the original box and instruction manual (if it still supposed to come with one).

OH and it's a LOT more fun to buy a pokemon game pre-owned. i get to keep their legendaries, finish their game and sometimes they have some neat teams.

Preorder from store. Easier for me and costs about the same.
Not only that but I usually get my games a few days before world release because the company has to be 100% sure that they game is at my door at release date, at least. Which is nice.

Usually a store.
Most of the events here in the UK require you go to a store to get a code anyway.
I managed to get a couple of diancie/gengar codes for friends, despite them not being supposed to hand them out anymore, just because I asked nicely.
Based GAME.

They're laughing because you're so insecure that you would lie to hide the fact you're a grown Pokémon fan, not wearing that title with pride like any alpha elite ever.
Kill yourself.
