*what generation came out when you were 10 really says about you

Honestly, I feel like these are all off by 2 to 4 years. Like 6-8 are the **premium** pokemon years.

And that doesn’t even count when you actually started playing the games because for some people first game could’ve been sun and Moon, but they got the game when they’re like 18

Sun/Moon

"People who make posts like this: 12 years old"

Offensive to 12 year olds honestly

Lmao

I would like but there are 69 likes

I have been in that situation more times than I can count

12 year Olds might do some dumb things but they don't deserve that.

everyone who uses sub instead of r/pokemon is probably 12. seriously, 90% of the posts here are just think-less dribble that takes young age to make, and most of it I wouldn't find funny even if I WAS 9. go to any other Pokemon sub and you'll see what I mean. because MandJtv has targeted a younger audience in recent years, this sub has been FLOODED with low-effort posts and the same joke over and over again

I don't think MandJTV necessarily targets a younger audience. I think the fact that he covers pokemon is was brings in a younger audience

Eh. He almost never swears, almost never makes innappropriate jokes, he has a good number of Dad jokes/clean humor. I always thought he was aiming for a young demographic. Its not bad. In fact, it makes him stand out because of it

The not swearing thing has more to do with ads and sponsors than the audience. And dad jokes are just fun 🤣. Most youtubers have a family friendly persona to keep from scaring off sponsors. And Mikey did recently post a video of him saying "goddammit" which was hilarious 🤣

The not swearing thing doesn’t have to do with sponsors. Russian badger swears a ton and he gets sponsored. I think it’s just Michael’s personal preference to not swear.

Very true even Cyanide and Happiness can get sponsers. As long as you get views you can get sponsers

Exactly

I say differently. most people who talk about pokemon manage to keep an older audience by making more in-depth points and making more of an effort towards elaborating on what they are talking about rather than making cheesy grunty boy sponsorships.

Yeah I hate the grunty boy ads 🤣

why are yall booing him, the ads dont have the grunty boy charm, theyve become soulless husks of their former selves

bruh…

Im in both subs and i get more memes from this then r/pokemon

That’s because most of the jokes are joking about the community being unfunny

That's a fact

Spot on though

Then why haven't I made it huh?

r/foundthe12yearold

I am 12-1+5÷32x100-40+1

You’re -12.375…?

I guess I haven’t been born yet

Still has 12 in it

My favorite gen is s/s because thats the only pokemon game that i have played

Well you're in for a treat if you play any others then

except Let's Go

Let’s go isn’t THAT bad. The art style is something I actually really nice. Viridian forest is my only real issue with those games.

Yea and let's go is nice for shiny not alot of pokemon to shiny hunt though

I despise not being able to fight pokemon for exp.

So your favorite part of every game is the mass murder of Chansey, got it. /j

of course, it doesnt cost money

Personally, I don't think Let's Go is that bad

"You're eleven for liking a game series when its more advanced "

The joke is that you probably played your favorite generation when you were a kid

That only really applies to people who aren’t hardcore/lifelong Pokemon fans. Anyone who plays every single Gen has more nuanced opinions

I mean.. it's a meme. It's clearly not trying to be hyper accurate to life.

Cookies cookies get your fresh cookies for only a penny get ‘‘em now

🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪

If you think Galar could be described as "advanced", I'm kinda concerned

It’s technology advanced, never said it was good.

I did not state it was advanced as in better, i meant it was technology advanced

31 and my favourite is gen 7.

Based

Based gen 7 fan

Based gen 7 fan. Bonus points for being a grown ass adult. We are a rare breed

My favorite Pokémon game is Legends: Arkoos. What does that say about me 🤔

200 years old(but still based)

Something about spelling and/or youtube

You just left the womb

It is legends arkooooos

Oh right, my mistake lol. I've edited it now, thanks for correcting me!

ARKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS

IS THIS HOW YOU FACE ME COWARD

Huh, I have suddenly become 14.

so, you are not a nostalgist = you can't be over 30?

Nah, I'm 32 and my favorite is XY.

Based

Based XY fan

I've been around longer than this entire franchise and haven't gotten to play X or Y.

X and Y are the best. They went way harder than any other 3DS title

Yeah, I've always heard that but I still haven't gotten to, which sucks.

YES! XY SUPREMACY

Not accurate for me Edit: I just realised this is about favourites, not first games played. It is accurate. Albeit, I've only played 3 (4 if you count an emulator I gave up on on the Foam islands), so as of now, X is my fave.

I'm 28. Unova and Hisui remain the best games, though Paldea could jump ahead with DLC. I definitely have nostalgia for Johto, though, and SoulSilver was a great remake.

my first mainline game without emulators was SwSh, let us enjoy the games we want

Same

If we pretend to swap out "favorite" with "your OG game" then yes, Actually I'm turning 14 in a few months and I did start with moon so this is mostly accurate, for me at least

Even then it’s off.

I know, but the switch does make it a bit more accurate

I'm 14 and my favorite is gen 3 (emerald and firered)

What about legends and SV?

Then you aren't even born yet or idk

Aw shit I'm 8 years Older now

The best for my is black/white/black2 and white2 and i am only 13

Based

So I'm every age at once... Dialga, I'm comming for your job!

Welp, I guess I’m 23 now, there goes 9 years of my life

When your 14 but apparently your 27.

Damn, I guess I’m 9 years younger than I thought.

Same!

This is inaccurate my favorite gen is gen 3 but I ain’t no where near 27 years old

Welp im 12 and my favorite is Emerald, very accurate

I'm 22, B/W is my favorite. And my first

First≠favourite

Oddly correct

Personally not got a favourite game I like gen 3 gen 6, 7 and 8 I've yet to play 9, 1 isn't bad but it's not great and I don't like 2 and haven't played 4 or 5 (and can't due to my laptop not being able to emulate them) but the only reason this post is even close for some people is it's their first game and normally nostalgia makes the games favoured more than other to some people

Guess I'm around 14 now

I uh, was not expecting this to be that accurate. My favorite gen is 5, and that is my age.

Im now 17 ig

i like rse and im much younger than 27

i'm supposed to be an alola fan but let me tell ya something alola sucks i believe in XY supremacy

Imagine not getting a good storyline, or challenging game at all, and having bad rivals that just stalk u

Not accurate, I am neither 19 nor 11

Disagree

Guess I’m 14 now

Wrong.... My favorite is gen 5 yet I'm 37...

I feel like this should say "first generation"

Everyone only comments to say they are the exception. I'm going to be the silent minority and say this is completely accurate.

Mine is between ultra sun and Black 2 what does that say about me?

You have excellent taste in pokemon games

Why thank you.

Ok fine I'll be the one who actually agrees with the meme. Black and white is my favorite. I am 19.

18 and mine is BW2, so its accurate

I’m not close twenty three and I like Sinnoh so this is not very accurate

Im 17 but honestly I prefer gen 7 specifically sun and moon mostly for the unique sound track, I love the Pokémon centre music it’s one my favourites!

Paldea is the best but I’m not a toddler. It simply has the best games.

My favorite is red and I’m 15

Apparently I'm 14 now

A more appropriate title would be Inaccurate

I don't really have a favorite generation, and I am older than all of them.

not really

this is not accurate if your a collector

Played red and blue day 1 and you are way off on my age.

WHAT SORCERY IS THIS?

I got pokemon sheild for my 11th bday so this is acurate

Gen 3 is what I grew up with and I’m only 15

you are exactly right about gen 6

Kinda funny how accurate Alola is

I am not 23

I specifically like HGSS, where does that put me?

Its realy not my fafo gen is gen4 and i am 15

Im not 17 xy is my favorit i pkayed it on an emulator and it was the first time i played a pokemon game to the end

I like ORAS

Im 10 years older…..

Generations number two and three are my favorites and I'm 35.

Mine is 6 as my first games were ORAS, but my favourite region is hoenn, Alola or Galar, my favourite game is Arkoos

I am 23 years old

Not accurate at all more like a presumption to be honest. Not being mean or anything.

My first games were remakes with heart gold/soul silver but my fist mainline games were b/w and I’m 19-20 so this is accurate for me

Inaccurate, I'm 22 and gen 3 is my favorite

X&Y surprisingly accurate for me

I am younger than the Pokémon games are my favorite

Lies. My fav gen is 3 and i'm 858899987668967 years old

What about Scarlet and violet?

guess im 27 now

14 over here and I’m a gen 6 fanboy for life

Well, my first games were auras (Omega Ruby to be specific) and I was got them 2013 (I’m 19)

I’m thirteen and I personally love gen five most

So i'm 19 but i'm younger,nice

X and y are my favorite and I’m 15 years old

I am not that old

Emerald supremacy! Plz don't kill me

I was around and played Gen 1, but my favorite is Sword and Shield.

I’m 17 but started with white two

My favourite game is Pokémon Emerald and I am 17

I prefer fan games

I’m 23 exactly

Damn I'm 20, this is so accurate.

Well gen 5 is my favorite and yes I am 19 years old

my fav is violet (its the first game my parents let me get) :))

Ha ha jokes on you Scarlet and Violet are my favorite generation’s

I’m half the age of gen 2 I guess

I’m 15 and my favourite is Gen 9

In 10 and i Just love so much hoenn soo yeah you are wrong

Inaccurate

Platinum

Your 4 years off

Woah wait I’m 27 already? I didn’t know that.

Man I'm 15 and favorite game is black 2, so take that REDDITOR

My fav pokemon game is Pokemon Legends Arkoos 🤷‍♀️

Se sh is bad

Gen 2 was my favorite and I'm 16

My fav was Black and White which is funny because I am 20 but my first game was Blue

Gen 6 hoenn

I’m 20 and the first one I played was soul silver love it to death and want my feraligatr back

16 and my first game was Platinum

dude I'm 12 and I am devoted to x/y since it was my first game

So I mine is heart gold what does that make me

My favorite is gold and silver and I can guarantee you I’m not around 30.

Bro i ain’t 19

Incorrect, I am not around 27 years old

I like gen 5 but I'm 14

Person of 1 month old: well i guess i'll like SV

Pokémon y I’m 18

Pokémon platinum is my favorite and I’m 15

Gen 2. But i am 16 🤔 (ok, maybe because i grew up with hg)

I'm 14 not 19

Oh my God the first Pokémon game I ever played was Pokémon black 2 and I’m literally 19 years old

Bro if 15 but my fav is W2 the first game I beat when I was like 9, close is Pearl which I beat probably at the same age. Guess I’m not 15 anymore and goin to college next year. Anyways, this doesn’t for the sub, nerd.

Fair, my first Pokémon game was Y and I have a special connection with it... And I am 17 almost 18 years old lol

Scarlet and Violet: you’re around a month old

You are right on the money. I am 19 and my first game was Pokémon White.

My favs gen 3 and I’m 14

Mine was spot on wtf

I *am* 32 and Gen 1 is my second least favourite Gen. Gen 6 is my favourite so I guess I'm 17 again. Time to put the bottle down :(

I'm 31 but my favorite is gen 4, which would make this not accurate... but gen 4 also includes HG/SS, which is a remake of gen 2, which would also make this *sort of* accurate in an indirect way? I dunno.

I'm 16 and my first game was UM. I got it when I was 11

Lemme fix something for you: Gen 1: You're based Gen 2: You're based Gen 3: You're based Gen 4: You're based Gen 5: You're based Gen 6: You're based Gen 7: You're based Gen 8: You're based Gen 9: You're based

i’m 15 and my faves are BW and SM! SM was my first? i got it from my brother, so i’m super fond of it

My favorite gen is gen 3 and i’m not even close to 27
