Anyone else think following pokemon is an Amie-tier useless gimmick? Why are people so desperate for it?
No you fucking troll. It's immersion.
Immersion.
>>26476719
because its cool
Her boobs are not that big
>>26476719
Friendship and happiness need to become one stat
Yeah, why even go on an adventure anyway?
Remove NPCs only have text to offer, as well.
In fact, remove towns altogether, those are useless.
Just make a watch with a Pokecenter and Mart and that's all you need.
You can find gym leaders in caves and the E4 at a mountain peak.
The entire region will be like Pokemon Stadium's pokemon league challenge.
>>26476719
It is kinda useless.
But it is a cute feature.
>>26476719
Remove following Pokemon.
Add in shoulderbros.
S&M will make Pokemon great again.
>>26476719
>Not wanting your starter or shoulder bro to be by your side, traversing comfy islands together
>>26476766
This desu
Anyone else think huge boobs is an phat Ass-tier useless gimmick? Why are people so desperate for it?
>>26476860
Because boys will be boys.
So a false sense of immersion is the only reason. Yup, amier-tier gimmick. I am so glad they're not wasting any resources to pander to you faggots.
>>26476748
Isn't it already though?

> I can finally have my Heliolisk ride on my shoulder
Thank you, based anon.
>>26476882
They're already pandering, the 3D overhaul is pandering to the max.
>>26476719
Pokemon amie is cute, and walking with them I always saw as pointless.
>>26476882
>pretending not being as shirt
I am glad that feature is gone. it only favors tiny rodent mons.
not that it would make sense for it to work with big mons mind you.
the whole thing is dumb, keep the slaves in there pokeballs.
lets not kid ourselves this is no different than underground dog fighting.
but instead of cages they get pokeballs
>>26476927
Walking Pokémon is cute, and Amie I always saw as pointless.
>>26476819
>shoulderbros
>kyogre, Groudon, Wailord
Yeah well I like it anyway.
>>26476882
>a false sense of immersion
To be honest, the only thing making the sense of immersion false is the eugenics mechanic. You know what I'm talking about. The one that affects the competitive scene and every metagame touching it, the one that corrupts the very thing that the franchise is supposedly all about, and so on and so forth.
>>26476937
>the people against walking pokemon are just edgy underageb&
No surprises here.
>>26476719
I like amie better.
>>26476883
Pretty sure they're different, otherwise Sylveon and espeon/umbreon evolution would be the same
>>26476949
you can just have your Wailord float above you, anon.
>>26476719
No. It's for fun.
>>26476882
>Use Gary Oak to hide the insecurities against the bigger opinion.
Trying too hard, much ?
>>26477060
>bigger opinion
>the few vocal idiots on /vp/ account for everyone
Keep deluding yourself.
Speaking of trying too hard:
>>26476955
>people don't have the same opinion as me? t-they're just trying to be edgy!
That buzzword is so overused.
>>26477143
You are still edgy no matter how much you deny it and call it a buzzword.
>>26476937
Following pokemon actually break immersion thanks to them switching sizes in the transition between battles and overworld
Getting chased by Rotom-Mow is fun to look at. I always have one sitting in my party whenever I boot up Heart Gold to use some Apricon balls.
Its ironic because the same people who wanted following Pokemon and thought the realistic 3d models for human (instead of chibi sprites) are better didnt realise that the realistci size models killed the idea of following Pokemon
>>26476736
It's a fictional character, no one fucking cares you autist.
I like Amie better.
It is, but I like both.
Just make it optional.
Amie is great because pokemon will just not give a fuck about poison and shit and just dodge moves sometimes.
>>26476719
Pokemon itself is a useless gimmick.
>>26476736
immersion
At least amie was optional. Having shit follow you around constantly got really old after like 5 minutes, but there was nothing you could do about it unless you wanted to permanently gimp yourself by hauling around a fainted mon.
