Is it weird that literally everyone in my class likes Pokemon? Was Pokemon really seen as lame years ago?

it was lame immediately after Pokemania in the late 90s, but slowly starting picking the teenage normie crowd back up around gen 4. now nobody remembers being overexposed to a fad because it happened before they were born. so yeah, common in zoomers these days

I remember thinking Pokemon was embarrassing around Gen 4 but slowly got back into it around Gen 6

Pokemon had this period around mid to late Gen 3 to early Gen 4 where it was considered lame to like it and people would make fun of you for being into Pokemon. The pendulum swung backwards after Pokemon GO which brought Pokemon back to the attention span of normies who now consider it quirky to like, but they don't actually play the games so they only know Charizard and what have you.
Kind of weird to think the same people who would mock others for being into Pokemon would end up being the target demographic for TCPI with all the Kantoooooooooo shilling.

Zoomer/Alpha kids who just grew up playing Pokemon never experienced this because these days vidya and anime are more mainstream than movies.

started in gen 2
it used to be seen as a baby game or something
Gen 4 was the only time I saw everyone in my age group playing pokemon including girls and the new kiddies.

after that around 2009- 2012 it suddenly became lame again.
Maybe due to the Global Recession
pokemon as a hobby is really expensive.

if you're in second grade then it's a little weird, but if you're in kindergarten/first grade then it's still pretty normal.

It was seen as lame after Gen 2 through maybe Gen 7 after the success of Pokemon Go.

Truly Kafka-esque
