People play Pokemon because they like it, and are intrigued by it.
I grew up watching Pokemon, and has concluded that the anime SUCKS so bad now! The games, however, are still fun to play!
I'm turning 15, and guess what? I STILL PLAY POKEMON and HAVE A LIFE.
I don't mean to sound mean, but I don't like stereotypical people who classify others by their interest and that if you still play games like Pokemon, you will stay a virgin forever and don't have a life! Those people in my opinion are sad and SHOULD get a life!
