General Pokemon Discussion

good luck waiting for ways to make the game worser for yourself.

Well, due to the day care being the only one where your pokemon only are in it and can interact with you, I guess they thought" well we're already making 493 over world sprites, lets let 'em follow you!".

edit: but yeah, I think it's going to be half assed

[Raytheon]

i want wailord to follow me

[DioShiba]

I bet wailord will be smaller then he should be in the OW

[Novalse]

It would be really cool if the OW sprites had animations for field moves, such as a machoke smashing a rock, or of you sitting on a golduck as you surf (instead of a generic sprite)

look at steelix, he's barely bigger than Gold.

I wonder how the more fish-like Pokemon are going to follow you.

Either float such as in the console games, or certain Pokemon will be able to follow you at certain times.

I hope they take a more realistic approach.
I'd keep a Magikarp in the front slot of my party just to have him flop around on the ground behind me.

The only thing that could make this better is if you could have your whole party follow you at once. That'll never happen, but it would be hilarious to walk around like that.

Well, having two pokemon alone offers the following problem : take a step back. The first pokemon takes your lsat step, and the one in second is now occupying the last square of the first pokemon, which you currently occupy. An easy enough thing to think about, and to solve, but it'd look pretty ugly to just stand on top of it's sprite, but not being able to retake your last step causes dead ends to be game-stopping problems.

But damn, the first pokemon follows you, now that's a nice touch. I wonder if they're going to add any new moves or how they're going to shift move sets around. Then again, I play competitively, that IS what I care about.

Works fine Mothers 1-3.

[Metaboss]

This is going to rock!

Have you played Pokemon Mystery Dungeon? If they were to have more than one Pokemon follow you, It'd be like PMD , and they would have oher Pokemon sidestep, or you'd switch places with them.

[Metaboss]

^Exactly. you don't stand on them!
