Pokemon is popular at my school now!

College student at the moment so you can still find people who play.
My senior year in high school (last fall to this past spring) my jounalism teacher chose my article to be full length material for the March issue of our paper. What was the topic you ask: The Release of Pokemon Black and White. That's how I found out that a lot of people played (including two teachers).

Nice. Unfortunately, it's "nerdy" these days so I don't talk about it.
I see what you did there. Nice Spongebob reference.
I fail to see what is nerdy about Pokémon.
At my school everyone knows about pokemon, then some of my friends actually play the games and only like 2 or 3 of them even know about the competitive side of the game. So what we get is a bunch of people bragging about having a "beast" Blastoise or Nidoqueen but still, it's better than nothing.

There small little mammals that spit out fire.
I just like to joke with it. In 5th grade, my last year in elementary school, I found like 30 2nd graders huddling around the DP handbook.

It's classified as nerdy because of the nature of most people who play it. A lot of people who enjoy the game tend to obsess over perfecting their pokemon (i.e intense EV training, breeding, etc), hence people jump to conclusions and expect anyone who likes it as being obsessed with it.

Pokemon's popular or cool depending on who you are. I was that "popular jocK" kid last year as a HS Senior (Scholarships for football) and was respected by pretty much everyone I didn't make fun of lol. I started playing Black about a week after it came out till the last week of school. Most kids that it was funny and cool because it was a "retro" thing to do. Most kids actually asked how it was and stuff like that and actually interested. Basically be yourself.
The beauty of the Internet is that you can make up almost anything about yourself, and other people have no way of knowing wether it is true or not.

Pokemon may be considered for a younger audience, but that doesn't take the sheer thrill out of it. The targeted and affected audiences are two completely different things.
