The reason I don't take some of my old Pokemon with me to new regions is because I want to catch new Pokemon and give them a chance at being the best pokemon they can be! I love making friends with lots of Pokemon by giving them my faith and trust in them. Thats how they get stronger with me! But I doubt if you guys would understand, all you do is battle for popularity. Thats why I have lots of friends who WANT to travel with me. Hah!
