Do people ever tease you or tell you that you're too old to be liking pokemon? How do you respond to them?

no because it isn't the fucking 90s or early 2000s anymore and pokemon is an extremely popular and mainstream thing

I'm in the state of the golden sun, and for some reason, literally no one picks on me about that. In fact, quite a few people I know own 3DSs just for playing Pokemon. Really, it's not a big deal here (And I'm in a huge college).

Eh, but if I HAD to deal with it, I just say "Fuck You" politely, and move on with my day.

But then again, playing the game closeted is like being a closeted gay. Everyone knows you are what you are, but usually don't give a shit about those qualities.

A lot of my coworkers asked me this

I just say I still like it. I do my job properly and I am very precise most of the time. Who fucking cares if I like pokemon. I talk about other stuff, we talk music, we talk baseball, etc. Just because I like ONE thing from my childhood doesn't mean it's the only thing I live for

People teasing others for something they like is literally toddler-tier conversation. The best response to this is to scratch your butt, pick your nose in front of them and tell them they are smelly and dumb.

I don't tell anyone I like it as it's never been brought up. I'm not in high school anymore so I likely won't get teased nor do I play like an aspie on campus.

But seriously, once you get to college no one gives a shit. Not everyone is playing it but everyone has better things to do than pick on the autist who likes Pokemon.

pokemon is pretty amongst the gays and most of my friends currently play pokemon. One of my best friends hasn't played since diamond and pearl tho, but he's still familiar with a lot of the material.
