How can it be a dumb idea? You feel more personally connected to your Pokémon in a way, it's a cool alternative for that weird little 10-year old who's meant to represent you, and it doesn't get in the way of ANYTHING. Just because you don't like it (which is not a problem at all, since you'll most likely be able to turn it off) doesn't mean it's a dumb idea. It seems like the majority of the people here seem to like it, and especially the kids, who are still the target audience, will love it if their favourite Pokémon is following them. I myself would find a Mew, Venomoth, Ariados, Hypno, Wigglytuff, whatever following me to be quite entertaining. It didn't bother me in Yellow, and there it was barely optional, and was restricted to one Pokémon.d master342 said:Still hate the Pokemon walking behind you. I'll never stop saying that's the dumbest idea ever for a Pokemon game.

This also means OW-sprites for like every Pokémon, so all those weird banner-people who want a logo-trademark-thing but are too lazy or untalented to make one themselves now have more options. They're also smaller than the party Pokémon.
You cannot possibly claim it's a dumb idea, you can dislike it yourself, but saying it's a dumb idea would be a downright lie. It's probably one of the more requested features, along with a customizable trainer. I know I used to think about how cool it would be if any Pokémon could follow you around when I was a kid. My inner child is very pleased
Xous is older than you, I'm older than you... What gives you the right to speak for all "older players"? You'll probably be able to turn it off anyway, so I still don't get your point, how in the world is it dumb?d master342 said:Oh, I should specify. A dumb idea for the older players, like me.
I assume that even if there's not a direct option, dropping the current Pokémon in your box will probably disable it anyway. I don't see them going out of their way to make sure you can't disable it, that'd just be weird...FireMeowth said:Wait. Has it been confirmed that you can't switch off the Pokémon-following-you-thingy? If not, I don't see why anyone would complain. >:
