Today’s Question: QotD: Do you have anything subtle that shows off Pokemon in your personal life?
Helpful Considerations: No secret that you love the cards? You have a some kind of merch on you at all times? Ringtone is the Pokemon theme? Those kicks be sportin Pokemon art?
I have ポケモン tattooed basically on my hair line at the top corner of my forehead. My hair is always covering it so no one knows it’s there unless it’s really windy or I show them
I have a couple subtle pieces of attire that I wear at work and out and about. Honestly thought someone would have picked up on one or the other at some point but they’ve both flown under the radar for a couple years now.
My most recent workplaces use slack and my avatar is always Pikachu. It’s typically a badge photo or default faceless avatar.
I also wear a team mystic Pokemon Go sweatshirt sometimes, I believe I bought it to get the Special Delivery Pikachu or some promo. Maybe it was the Professor’s Research
I have my pikachu socks that are mostly just yellow and the pikachu part is basically always covered by my pants. So that’s subtle but my eevee cap is not.
I have more than a few grey hairs. But if that doesn’t count then there’s some 64 equipment in the cabinet under the TV, probably a Pokemon logo or two visible through there if you look hard enough. Also, there’s a little bowl with cartridges on a table somewhere.
Forgot about this one. Most people don’t even notice it but when they do it’s a conversation starter. I’ve had numerous bass pro shop hat collectors think it’s a limited edition drop or something. It’s always an awkward conversation when I try to explain to them what a Magikarp/Pokemon is
It looks almost exactly like this. Its a fun way to say “I love pokemon”. I had a guy at a stoplight ask me to roll down my window and ask me what my favorite eeveelution is once. It made my day tbh.
