Someone convince me on the merits of Pokémon following you.

So many people seem to love it, but I just don't see how it is a game-changing feature.

Please, give me the reasons why it is a good feature. Sell me on it.

It's not a game-changing feature. We just like it. Its cool to see your pokemon walking beside you, as it is what you would do in real life. GF should just add an option to turn it off for those that don't like it.

Well most people on this board played Pokemon as a kid, and it stuck with them to adulthood, unlike most people. Since it's something they've known basically their whole lives, they refuse to accept that the gens are getting progressively shitter, also unlike most people. Although gen 6 does look more promising than the previous 2 pile of shit gens.

It's not a game-changing feature, I don't think I've ever seen anyone claim it is. It's a cute little addition that helps you feel like you're really spending time with your Pokémon outside of battle.

I don't quite understand what this has to do with Pokémon following you...

I've played since day 1 of US release and only stopped for a few months when I didn't have a GBA for RSE. I'm the only one in my group of friends who still plays hardcore (often, metagame), and I have never understood the fascination behind the following of your Pokémon.

What did that have to do with OP's question?

There's your problem. You're a smogonfag, not a Karenfag. I wouldn't be suprised if you never got how some people actually feel emotional attachment to their pokemon, no matter how hard we try to explain it.

>Assuming

Actually, I only use PS to metagame. I have a full team of my favorites that I IV bred and EV trained for wifi battles.

Yet, despite all this, I still don't see the appeal of having a Pokémon follow me around in-game.

Still, you probably will never get it. Some people like it, some don't. You're in the latter camp. All there is to it.

And I just find it amusing that you used "assuming" rather than "implying." I think I spend too much time on /b/.

I just want to get it though! People are furious when it isn't in-game (though I understand the rage behind the DW sprites) and I don't understand it.

I've been trying to get away from that kind of stuff. I said "implying" out loud in an argument with a friend once and decided it was time to cut back a bit.

Because it's fucking neato. That's it. If you don't get why then you never will. Now go away and stop attention whoring, fucktard.

It's just a cool feature that lets you kind of bond with your Pokemon a bit by talking to them.
Pokemon-Amie seems to be a very acceptable replacement, though.

If you don't get it then it's ok, don't think about it too much. However, I've never seen anyone furious like you say, personally it's just sad to see it go away and just mindboggling. GF keeps giving games small features like this and then taking them away in later games (I guess they think of them as gimmicks).

Gojira is a fucking awesome band and whoever made this album edit deserves .3 of an Internet.

Mostly just, you know, it was a damn wailord just copy and pasted but still.
