You Know You're a Big Pokémon Fan When...

Searching Youtube for the latest game trailers
You buy things purely for the sake of getting a Pokemon figure/toy
Your favourite 18th birthday present was Pokemon Platinum and its game guide
You check serebii.net everyday

Ahh, guilty of all of these
 
When your grandfather gives you $75 in cash for Christmas and you decide to save it for HGSS. Yes, this is me.
 
when your sister tries to ask you a question and you say "i cant understand you, it doesnt relate to Pokemon"
 
You work for this company:
gallade_header_05.gif


In case you were wondering, yes, this is a real company but other than the name I cannot see a connection between Gallade the Pokémon and Gallade Chemical.

Granted the emblem does look vaguely like a Gallade's head...
 
2. When you turn around and stare at someone when they say "It's misty out" or "That's a huge pile of ashes" (guilty)

It's real bad for me in May... did you think of the character or the month when you read that? I see the girl first. Lol... Broccoli. I always look up when I hear that too.
 
1-...You will die from boredom without regular poke-stimulation
2-...You argue with friends and family about various shippings.(This is my sister and i when it comes to penguin vs. ikarishipping. I penguin, she ikaris):argue:
3. you lie awake at night wondering if suicune/enti/rako are dogs, cats, or just beasts.
4. You don't use HM slaves because you worry that it would make them feel bad about thier existance.
5. You don't want to pick a starter in HG/SS because you don't want any of them to go to the abusive Silver (guilty already)
