Everyone secretly plays Pokemon. We all trash it publicly, because you gotta admit, it's sorta like Call of Duty now: Re-packed every few years w/ 1-3 new things.
The COD part is very unnecessary. Just because a franchise makes a new game very often doesn't mean people are gonna get embarrassed by it.
(Like how people get embarrassed by Pokemon cus it's "childish," doesn't happen with COD.)
I have had a massive breakdown... i lost my pokemon black and now im very sad allthough ive started to play pokemon fire red trying to get back into buisness!
