Pokemon was only ever "cool" when i was in primary school. I see it as a game that young children would play.

I used to love Pokemon but now all i see is the same repetitive stuff after another.

Become a trainer > get first Pokemon > catch more Pokemon > Train them > walk around for the next 5 hrs > get badges > end.

My Good gravy Cakes! The Percentage isn't out of 100%! Its Out of 98%! Believe it, I worked it out, and then checked it with a calculator, then got several mathematicians who worked it out in an average of 2.35 seconds.. Then got a Mechanical Santa to do 45 Mega-checks.
Its 98%, My studies have shown.

EDIT: LOL i forgot to actually talk about the topic..
Pokemon Is still loved by tonnes, Xbox Fans and people like that Think its terrible but If many would be familiar with the 'Nintendo Generation', People in Years 10-12, Believe it or not still remember this generation, Whether they still go by it, is different, But with the Generation, Many would remember the First Gameboy, Alongside with Pokemon red, blue, and yellow. The 3 Legends of Games. And if you love something when your young, your gonna still find it entertaining.
Just needed to get that off my chest.

Diamond and Pearl where the fastest selling DS games so you can't really say Pokemon is completely out since it still sells but it is no where near as popular as it used to be.

Pokemon just isn't cool anymore, because there is only so much they can do with it.

It is aimed at the younger generations, and they don't know that it used to be much better. It will still sell, but it isn't nearly as good as it used to be.
