If you are passionate about something then who cares.
If you genuinely like something then you genuinely like something.
A 14 year old liking hamburgers wouldnt stop you from liking hamburgers.

Life has proved me that, as long as you have a functional autism switch to turn on and off when necessary, everything will be okay.

You can discuss something without going into full autism/powerlevel mode, or getting insecure about it.

42 here.

Yeah, I'm old. Get off my lawn and all that stuff.

I still like the game, it gets me to explore the city I've lived in for over 20 years, honestly leaning more stuff than I ever thought I might.

20 here. So, younger than most in this thread, but still an adult. Was recently counseling at a summer camp and had plenty of very enjoyable pokemon discussions with my group of kids age 8-11 or so. And then at school, I've no trouble finding people my age and older who enjoy pokemon as well. (Art school, everybody loves it.) Long story short, just love whatever you love, don't be an autist in public about it, and enjoy it with anybody else who does, regardless of age, gender or whatever.

I abandoned pokemon when I was 14 because other kids my age kept mocking me for being childish. I came back like two years ago, I'm 24 now, and I regret the time I missed.
Don't be like me. Don't do something you know you'll regret.

Indulge my curiosity fellow 30+ year olds, what was your favourite Gen? Counting HGSS as Gen 4 and ORAS as Gen 6.

No judgement, just wondering.

Gen 5 for me.

Probably Gen 4. Platinum + HGSS had about everything I wanted. Such a great time for Pokemon.

23 here. Question for you older friends: did you ever give up or try to move away from Pokémon? Just graduated and I'm wondering if real life will demand that.

It's ok to like Pokemon. Just be graceful about it. Don't let yourself get all nerdy and overly enthusiastic in public, or people will think you're a weirdo. Don't wear Pokemon merchandise, don't play the games in public, and don't bring up Pokemon around anyone. Just love it in secret like the rest of us, unless you want to be labelled as an autistic manchild.

>did you ever give up or try to move away from Pokémon

On and off, but not so much because I had to, more just I lost interest for a while. It happens. I'm sure I'll drift out again at some point, then come back. Its a natural thing.

>Just graduated and I'm wondering if real life will demand that.

I doubt Pokemon takes up enough of your time/changes your lifestyle so much that getting a job, getting married, kids, all that stuff is really going to have an impact on it, unless you're playing 24/7.

I'm 30 and live a real life with my own business, non-gamer friends, and a fiance. Your life won't demand that you stop enjoying Pokemon if you don't want it to.

I never moved away from the series completely, but I didn't play Crystal or RS when they came out, and jumped back in at Fire Red. Been very consistent since then.
