>>15615504so not the first of their kind that you catch or the ones that help you through the gym leaders, the E4 & champion, the legendaries, or all the challenges the game throws at you, but only the ones that can serve you competitively to boost your ego by defeating other people
and then once competitive play becomes more defined as the generation develops and the 3rd game comes out with move tutors, etc, i assume the ones you have now with outdated move sets & strategies will lose any meaningful attachment too
