To be honest, I'm sure that a lot of people that say they hate Pokemon, or that it's dead, actually play the games and don't want to let people know in case their friends make fun of them. Of course, their friends themselves might also like Pokemon so the only way that fans will be able to trade with whoever they want is if everyone admits whether they really like the games or not. ...Like that'll ever happen.

Also, Neo, I had the same idea. If I ever get the chance to do a report on whatever I choose, in English class, then I might choose Pokemons popularity, just to rub the fact that Pokemon isnt dead into everyones faces.
