It was never as popular as Turbo Pascal. I can think of 2 p-code pascals:  
The original With pascal and USCS Pascal. I can think of five which  
compile native: Kyan Pascal, Oregon Pascal, GNU-Pascal, Free-Pascal and  
last but most important one: Turbo Pascal now Delphi. The sales and use of  
the later probably dwarfing the combined rest.

And that is out of the top of my head without google research. You are  
just plain wrong. Pascal was not designed as an interpreted language, most  
implementations are not interpreted the most popular implementation is not  
interpreted. You can turn in any way you like - the result is always the  
same: Pascal is not an interpreted language.

Martin
