"You're up Nyx!" Sammy said. Nyx ran in front of Sammy readying to battle. "Let the battle begin!" Nyx said. "Use slash!" Sammy commanded. Nyx ran toward magmar and swiped her claws at it.

Sammy got a smirk on her face. "Sure we're up for a battle, right Nyx?" Sammy said and received a nod from the absol. "Alright you're on." Sammy retrieved sewaddle to his pokeball for now.

As Chishio said, MLP is a family show. Kids are meant to watch it with their parents, and their parents are meant to be able to watch it without feeling like it's painful torture

Though I must say; whenever a show is created with children in mind, (especially girls) it's usually deemed as terrible...unless it somehow becomes "good", then suddenly it becomes an "everyone can watch it!" type of show. Funny how that works.

Anyway! As for what you can do about your family...it's tough to enjoy something while still being teased for it. I remember when I was in middle school (back in the early 2000's) I was teased relentlessly for "still liking" Pokemon. I would get SO mad! I was like- how is that a reason to ridicule someone? Plus Pokemon is awesome, so why SHOULD I be teased for something like that?

I think the best advice I can give is to roll your eyes and not take it personally. They may not understand the show's appeal, but not everybody is going to be interested in a flash animated show about pastel horses. You just gotta tell yourself: "Hey! I'm comfortable with just being myself, and enjoying the things that make me happy! It's just a cartoon, it's nothing to be ashamed of."

Eventually they'll see you're unphased by their teasing and they'll back off. Maybe you can show your siblings a cool/funny pony music video. I remember in the early days of the fandom, people became intrigued when they started seeing Pony synced up to Movie Trailers

Funny you say that, when I got into pokemon it was pretty much just "the norm" or at least I think... but I see where you're coming from. In fact, my mom didn't laugh when I talked a bit about it yesterday so I think the advice is working, thanks everyone!

Sammy and Nyx are sitting next to each other staring at the sewaddle. "Hmm...you have a pretty good moveset...Idk what to name you...hmm..." Sammy said as Nyx just stared at it.

(Pretend that happened before we flew in the helicopter.)

Sammy looked around the house with Nyx. "It's nice here." Sammy said.

(Sorry I left, everything just seemed quiet. What happened?  )

*Sammy and Nyx are training ouside of the jungle.* "Use Slash!" Sammy said pointing toward a sewaddle. Nyx obeyed and used slash. The sewaddle countered with bug bite, doing major damage to Nyx. "Argh..." "Alright, let's try this...Go pokeball!" Sammy said throwing a pokeball at the sewaddle.
The pokeball rocked until Sewaddle was captured. "Yes! we have a new friend!" Sammy cheered. Nyx stood proud.

Thanks for the advice. I'll try not to let it bother me, but that's easier said than done.
Even though if I try t explain it, they still think it's gen 3. Thankfully I just got a neice so hopefully I can turn her into a Brony

"Ah...we have plenty of time for that..." Sammy said. She turned towards Marble. "So what are you guys going to do?"

"Too bold?!" Sammy said slightly offended. "Well I-" She say something but quickly regretted speaking. "Shouldn't we be training?" Nyx asked.

Sammy smirked a bit. "I'm Sammy, and this is my absol, Nyx. She and I have known each other for a long time. Though...she doesn't normally open up to others..." She blushed. Nyx gave a blunt smile. "and you're too bold." she teased.

Sammy watched the Glaceon and eevee. "So...do either of you guys want to battle us next?" she said only receiving a glance from Nyx.

"(See? that was nothing...)" Nyx said licking her fur. "Hmm..." Sammy said standing up with Nyx and walking over to the group. "Are you guys alright?"

Goodra gets hit, and can't seem to find where Abra went. "Look behind you! Hit him with Power Whip!"

(Could you possibly make your text color a little darker? it's a bit hard to read... )

*Sammy nudges Nyx as she sits next to Sam by a rock.* "Oh come on, you have to think this is a little fun to watch!" Sammy said. "Absol...(It's alright, not the most exciting battle I've seen though.)" "Aw come on! You're too serious sometimes..." Sammy smirked. *Sees giant balloon snatch Goodra.* "Oh snap..."

(I haven't rped in awhile, so I may be rusty  )

*Sammy and Nyxare walking when suddenly they see a battle between a goodra and an abra.* "Awesome! I've never seen those pokemon before!" Sammy exclaimed. Nyx just stared at the pokemon fighting.

I've been a Brony for about a year or so, and my family has just found out.  
The problem is they won't stop teasing me about it, especially my little brother. They keep calling it a kids show, though it was original intended to be one (obviously) they just don't get the fact that there might be something good about the show if teens and some adults watch it.
Does anyone know how to deal with this? I'm just about ready to pound them!
