Did you hide your pokémon power level?

Every time someone speak to me about pokémon, I act like I don't know shit about this franchise.

They just assume they know more than me while i smile at them saying stuff like "charizard is the most powerfull pokemon" or normie's quotes. Sometimes i even find someone who says that plays showdown (i don't usually battle on showdown), but they assume that i know shit about competitive. "I play pokemon too but is very hard because i play on showdown, just for people who knows a lot about pokemon". I have a lonely pokemon life.

Nobody fucking cares OP. If you don't want to tell it to other people that's fine of course but honestly people really don't care. If you're not too socially awkward it's not a big deal, maybe not the best topic on a first date or something you should talk about 24/7 but besides that its not that weird.

"I used to date a girl who was really into it, so I learned everything about it at the time. There's like 800 of them now and I know most of the first 600."
Or if I feel like revealing that I know more I say a girl I used to date got me hooked on it.
Both are mostly true. I haven't played gen 7 yet, so I'm not too familiar with the Alolan mons.

Middle school was hell because everybody wanted to appear adult rejecting the former years. No one dared bringing up Pokémon in front of others especially girls, but everyone was playing the games and sort of fessed up to me privately. Still I was to be singled out and laughed at.
However one should not worry too much now, if is confident enough and among adults. The franchise is being received differently from long ago.

I used to have a charmander and arceus keychain I'd wear but switched them out for just a pokeball keychain. I feel it works best because I can have a short conversation with normalfags about gen 1 but then go into long chats about the series with others that have large power levels that get interested in the keychain.

Only around this one friend of mine, I told him I was fan once. He proceeded to imply that he was just as much of a fan as I am in the same sentence as admitting he hasn't played a game since generation 3.
Every time it comes up he complains about the new designs being bad, so I avoid bringing it up because it hurts listening to him be such a fag.

I don't hide it from anyone else because it's a part of who I am.

I remember thinking the same thing as you.
But along the line, I decided to say "fuck it", and show my knowledge whenever it's brought up.
The result? Nothing's changed. Seriously, you're not in school anymore. People have more pressing matters to attend to than some autist who somehow has greater knowledge about a children's franchise.

You meant to say "played" instead of "play"
It's true that XY and Pokemon Go brought a ton of people back to the series (especially normies) but the fad already wore off
It's been weeks since I've seen anyone playing Pokemon at my college

If you honestly, HONESTLY believe people will think less of you just because you're knowledgeable about a children's video game, then you have problem. Or the people around you do, whichever comes first.

I don't bring pokémon to a conversation randomly, no.
If someone were to talk to me about pokémon then I would follow the conversation. If it's obvious they don't know anything about it other than first gen, then I wouldn't mention how I want to fuck Tapu Lele. If it's obvious they bought every single game and nuzlocked the shit outta them, then I would revel my powerlevel, obviously.
