Title: My Battle Against My 'So-Called FRIENDS'
Description: Aurgh.


The Kamikaze - March 26, 2008 04:07 PM (GMT)
Well, I'm sure many of you read my thread about how my 'friends' laughed at me for believing in Pokemon.

Well, I gathered the courage to go to school yesterday, I can't run away forever. All was going well until third period, the class with the two moronic non-believers.

I walked into the class and.. AURGH, NO OTHER SEATS OTHER THAN THE ONES NEXT TO THEM TWO. I walked over and sat with them and it was pretty much silence for atleast 5 minutes.

One of them suddenly gathered the courage to say "I can't believe you ACTUALLY believe in Pokemon.. You're gay". GRRRR.. THEY HAVE NOT LEARNED!! My response: "I'm quite sure about my sexuality to know that I am not gay, thank you very much. And as for my beliefs, I feel it's none of your business with what I should feel is the truth and what isn't".

The other one stepped in "Well, we have proof Pokemon isn't real". I was shocked! They decided to research this! My response: "Haha, we at the Pokeclipse community have proven many people like you wrong, so come on, try to sound smart and say Pokemon isn't real with your 'research'".

He got some paper out and started reading from it:

"Pokémon is a media franchise owned by video game giant Nintendo and created by Satoshi Tajiri around 1995. Originally released as a pair of interlinkable Game Boy role-playing video games, Pokémon has since become the second most successful and lucrative video game-based media franchise in the world, behind only Nintendo's Mario series".

HOLD ON A MINUTE! WHAT THE ****?!!!

I stood up and slammed my hands on the desk "YOU GOT THAT FROM WIKIPEDIA.. YOU IDIOT". The idiot was in shock for a second and then responded: "Yeah.. So?". "Well WHAT PROOF IS THAT? YOU'VE COPIED SOMETHING FROM A WEBSITE, I FAIL TO SEE HOW THIS PROVES US AT POKECLIPSE WRONG" I shouted.. The class went quiet. He responded "I'm proving to you that Pokemon is made by Nintendo and was made by someone. Therefore it cannot be real".

Oh dear.. Oh dear... My anger was rising and I really wanted to punch this non-believer in the face. I had to keep my cool to look good, so I said

"Oh you silly boy.. For a start, you copied that from Wikipedia, one of the most unreliable sources on the internet. And, Nintendo has a portal of some sorts to get into the Pokemon universe, meaning they could have got the idea from that universe and marketed it to younger audiences. You're blinded by stupidity".

His response:"...Yeah, but it's not real". I rest my case. I sat down, and here's where it all starts to get bad. Everyone had heard us, and I suddenly became the laughing stock of the class. People were calling me gay and now the WHOLE school knows I believe in Pokemon. I can't believe this is happening... Why are people so stupid. Pokemon are real, if only they would open their eyes..

Anyways, I wasn't on yesterday because I was pretty much crying all day. I never thought my beliefs would cause me to actually get bullied. It's so wrong. <_<
Anyways, I'll keep you guys updated! I can't wait to prove them wrong when we each have our own Pokemon partner. B)

Don't worry, you did the right thing. You stood up for your beliefs :D You'll see who's laughing when we find our partner.

I would like to help you! I wish we were in the same school! Dude, i tottally undesrtand how you feel! You did the right thing! Its so sad people feel like they NEED to pick on others for having different beliefs...

Think like this. The moment we reach the pokémon world, we will laugh and they will cry. Maybe you could even use a Ghost or Psychic pokémon to scare them... it would be fun :lol:

ignorant self-centered egotistical....B@stards.

I got picked on all through 4-8 grade for being bi, and also picked on for my beliefes on pokmemon. O_o i hate people who cant differentiate between lies and fiction, from truthe and honesty

TeenageMutantNinjaSquirtle - March 26, 2008 05:29 PM (GMT)
People are always ridiculed for their beliefs. Especially when their beliefs are about popular media franchises being real. I remember back in the day, people were being martyred left and right before the Great Simpsons Exodus of '87.

thesixler - March 26, 2008 05:31 PM (GMT)
I thought it was agreed that the whole media franchise was in fact a work of fiction, though it was in fact inspired by visions or other peeks into the pokemon world.

Thanks for the support!

People are so judgemental even today over things like being Bisexual or Homosexual.

I can't wait to reach the Pokemon universe. All this will have been worth it :D

Trainer_Dan - March 26, 2008 07:43 PM (GMT)
Man, that's really sad to hear.

I'd like to beat them! :angry:

You did the right thing. Its not worth having friends if they treat you lik enemies. :)

NEWSCHOOLERS - March 26, 2008 11:16 PM (GMT)
I'm playing pokemon red right now, how can there not be a media franchise when I'm using their products?
now I'm all confused!!!! I thought that pokemon lived in the game, and that we believed that through NINTENDO we could get into the game and live in harmony

I feel so stupid

They'll remember you when they're in their 20's when there are news reports about an apparent new world discovered, then they'll look back at old school photos and remember you my friend, and remember how correct you were.

This will make them far more angry, hah.

Personal vendetta, anyone?

Pichu - March 27, 2008 12:49 AM (GMT)

At the end of the day, the trolls are either jealous, (--->) insecure (<---) or are plainly people who thrive off teasing and bullying people because of their beliefs. It's personally up to them.

Pichu - March 27, 2008 12:57 AM (GMT)
Yeah we don't want to go down to there level, but showing off are Pokemon would be cool :P

Wouldn't it just? Imagine having a Poochyena as your pet dog or an Eevee for that matter. That'd be so awesome.

Yeah that would be well good, they would want to join us then..

Dark_Hououh - March 27, 2008 01:02 AM (GMT)
Pokemon is a video game, but there are real Pokemon somewhere too!

Digimon is just a ripoff of Pokemon and they make their plot set in the "real world" only to trick people into believing in Digimon instead :P
