>>46868251pokemon can be played privately, that way you keep your dignity and at the same time get to have fun
if you want to share something interesting about your playthroughs you can always post it here on /vp/ which is a million times better than destroying your reputation on reddit or other social media
even though women "like" pokemon, unless she is a massive nerd who is deep into the games, making the fact that you play pokemon known will diminish their opinion on you and maybe even prevent you from scoring
even if your family really loves you please for all that's good never mention that you as a grown man play pokemon, I did it and I saw how my father's eyes filled with tremendous disappointment and I can understand that, it would be akin to my future son coming to and telling me he plays celeste and loves the new age game developers, never mention you play pokemon to your family
and never ever mention you play pokemon at work, the moment you do your boss will absolutely take advantage of you and make your life a living hell
"oh you play children games? yeah that promotion you wanted closed early anon, I'm sorry"
have fun, but have fun privately.
