No. 9: Dedicated Fans

If you're old enough to remember the original 150 Pokemon, then you'll remember the phenomenon called Pokemania. New games, cards, toys, and movies were met with an explosion of geeky fandom not rivaled until Pottermania. Even today, die hard fans still keep the faith by resurrecting their gameboys and connecting cables, those wiry things we used before WiFi was even invented, to battle it out with 1st generation Pokemon. Legions of fans have stuck around through the release of 500 more Pokemon and they still want to "catch em' all." What does this mean? Simply that we aren't alone.
