    The only thing I can suggest is to look at the script in Pokemon Yellow and see if you can create one similar to it.

  • You could code it really yourself using events or scripts.
    It's simple maths. Just work out where the player and the follower are on screen/on the map.
    Just use 4 variables, 2 for the players X and Y coordinates and 2 for the follower's X and Y coordinates.
    Then use branches to work out the movement.
    Branch if followers X is less then players X
    >Move follower left.
    <else>
    Branch if followers X is greater then players X
    > Move follower right

    and so on for the other 2.

  • Or use the "dependent script event" that's alredy included in Pokemon essentials.
    Nowadays it has been modified so that the "follower" stays even after the map changes.
