What's the most annoying thing a non-Pokemon person has said about Pokemon?

[Techcraft228]

Apart from the obvious "Pokemon is stupid" thing, what's the stupidest or otherwise worst thing you've heard a non-tendo has said? (Make non-tendo a thing!) For example, I once heard someone say that Mew evolves into Mewtwo. Someone entirely different said that there's no difference between a Legendary Pokemon and a Mythical Pokemon. I wanted to gag. But what have you heard along these lines?

One of my friends asked if Pokémon was a pikachu.

I find it pretty annoying when people say that Pokemon is child-ish . In basic terms when you just look at the game it seems like that but the fact that it's a lot more complex if you play competitively . Plus I still find it very fun no matter what age , so yeah , lot of non-Pokemon person will likely say that xD

Pokemon a pikachu I mean pikachu is the mascot but still that's wrong...pika-piii. But back to the point people have said to me Pokemon can only be played by toddlers and baby's because they are the only ones with the brain mass to play them and a lot more but is kind of to inappropriate for this site and a lot of it was hurtful and enough to make someone stop playing the game but I still play it so whoever got told something like that just put it Side if you play a game you like then play it.

People told me that Pokemon is just animals that hurts each other and are just ruled by humans and are held against their willto have freedom. My friend even says that Pokemon is just a game where it is a post-apocolyptic society working to abuse animals.
I'm like: "It's just a dang game. The plot is a great fit for a game and if you are so interested in calling a game PG 13 then why are you worried about it, seriously. It kinda gets irritating that they are making a BIG deal out of nothing like stick to CoD or Halo like don't do that that's dead."

Mostly everybody says, "Pokemon is such a childish game!"

So, Pokemon on outside may seem like a childish game, but once you learn to play competitively, the game could be rated Pg18. It has so much strategy and is so hard to breed and ev train and get all those moves down and then actually play competitive, my head was almost going to explode X_X

Many people are like OMG That is such a childish game and stuff. Oh yeah and then there was his other dude who calimed he knew all Pokemon and i asked him some names of Pokemon and he was Like "Pikachu,Pikachu and BROCK"
I WAS NO!
BROCK IS NOT A FRICKING POKEMON

I think the stupidest thing I heard was "Pokemon is evil." Come on! Pokemon aren't evil! It depends on who uses them.

"Pokeyman", "Pokemons", and all of those other phrases. If you can't say it right, just go away. I normally don't care how people pronounce Pokemon or the names of Pokemon (that's a rant for another day), but if you're pronouncing it wrong intentionally just to be a jerk, you need to check yourself unless you want a horde of angry gamers after you. (That statement brought strange and hilarious images to my head ;-

All of the guys who hates Pokemon said "Pokemon is Childish". Ok, so it is a childish game, but think of it I can play Pokemon because of it's Pegi ( Pegi 3, 0 and more ) while you play Call of Duty while it's Pegi is 18. Btw almost no one Can do IV breeding and EV training because it's blowing your mind after 2 mins you watch JWittz's video about IVs and EVs.

'Pokemon is Boring' is the most ridiculous thing a friend has said t me. Apart from 'Pokemon Suck' , 'Pokemon is G@*' and 'Pokemon is made by Japanese people who can't see.' My friends do not appreciate all the time and effort which is put into making these game. Also someone said that Pokemon is immoral because Pokemon Breed without marrying? WTF.
