I'm glad this topic opened a mini discussion here. I understand the frustration of people maybe coming off as fake or "two-faced" they seems to "LOVE" Pokemon soooooo much but it appears superficial when they can't go beyond very surface level recognition like "that's Pikachu", or "this pokemon is so cute".
That being said, personally, and as a community, I think we should strive to be accepting of these people. Like stated above they soon downloaded an emulator to play Ruby. Which is not neccessarily the correct thing to do but could lead to a future "true" fan of Pokemon.
And when I say "true" I don't mean they're not really a fan. I find it very difficult at times, but have truly adopted the belief that Pokemon is mean to be experienced together, but on an individual level. If that makes sense.
