>>47956179This is actually THE most retarded mechanic I've seen in any Pokemon game just because of how nonsensically arbitrary it is.
A developer sat down, saw that following Pokemon was super popular, then decided that their Speed stats should effect their following speed...
If it ended there, it wouldn't be so bad
But they THEN decided not to cap the maximum distance that they could fall behind the player to the point where they would fade out then load back in closer to you
It actually blows my mind how asinine of a decision this is.
