Pokemon fans are the third wackiest in the world directly after Star Wars fans and the masters, the Trekkies. But both Pokemonists and Starwarriors are tainted by the shameful sin of consumerism (*), only the Trekkies are pure!
(*) Starwarriors get also infected by their favourite latest movies with a horrible disese, "the curse of prequels", that force the aforementioned prequels, in the effort to make them fit with the first chapters, to be sometimes unlikely and often pedantic. And the fans follow suit, and while being unlikely is quite normal for every fan that push themselves even beyond cosplay, Starwarrior also become almost pedantic as Trekkies, but without their purity.
Sorry for the OT, after reading trekkie gobbledygook I couldn't resist!
