Have you ever felt like your Pokemon was a 'friend'?

[Ethan Gold]

I consider my Pokemon to be friends. Especially my Minun. I caught him and used him since late 2003. When I transferred him to new games, he is always in the first batch to enter the new region to travel along with me. He currently battles alongside my other Pokemon and is my main pokemon in musicals. I also brought him to this forum incase anyone didn't notice.

I will never restart Leafgreen because I love my Raichu so much.

I have felt very attached to Pokemon before. I feel that way with my Meganium, Mismagius, and a few others. I don't know what I would do if I lose them. I kind of attach them to old memories that I have when I first got the game... The certain Pokemon reminds me of times I've had. Like my Blaziken, he's a level 100 and I've had him since I was a kid around 2003 or so. He's been around for so long. It's like a part of my past in a way and it's something that I just don't want to get rid of.

I haven't played my Diamond for months. I feel very guilty for abandoning my Roserade for so long. I love her. She's amazing.

 

[Elite Overlord LeSabre™]

No, I consider them as tools of destruction that I use to dominate the Pokemon game world and bring glory to my in-game character.

 

[Legendary Silke]

I think I really like my Turtwig Grotle now. It sometimes feels so awkward.

I can't say I have felt it was my "Friend" but I have felt minor guilt for either deleting or boxing them away.

 

[CharizardManiac]

Actually yes, I do usually feel a strong friendship bond with my Pokemon, especially those I have trained for a while such as my Charizard who I trained to level 100 in Fire Red along with my Nidoking and Arcanine. When playing I don't just think of them as pixels on a screen.

 

[Blast Aftermath]

Early this year or either last year, I got my first Dragonite and got super attached to my Crobat in another game, and then Steelix, Dragonite, and Crobat were my 'homepeoples.'

 

[deneric]

Yep ^_^ My Arcanine (who I've given a distinct personality), Rattata (In HG I raised one all through the jhoto region (including the Elite Four) and never let him evolve), Lucario (I was so stoked when I got him), and Gantoru (I can't wait to evolve him!). There was also Golduck in Platinum that, despite everyone talking badly about it and trying to get me to switch him out, I never did. One time, even, this is when I realized I actually cared about the guy, I was about to trade him for a starter, but couldn't get myself to do it.

 

[Starshine ~]

Heck yeah :3

My first Jirachi was a hack :P but I frankly didn't care at the time, I was beyond ecstatic to have it. I named it 'Starshine' (hence my username) and used it as my lead at the E4 xD

 

[Hope]

Of course! I love all my pokemon <3

 

[Morgnarok]

My darkrai isvlike a best friend to me.If pokemon was real i know who would be my best friend.

 

[Kitrigar]

The Pokemon I use throughout the game are the ones I stick with.
Never will I trade them out..
Unless I'm EV training/competitive battling.

 

[Kieran]

Yus', I'm N, afterall!

I totally love my Shiny Miltank, especially when she follows me around my Heartgold so much, I'm so attached to her ^3^

 

[Air Pichu]

Of course they're my friends! I've had a Kingdra that I've had since 3rd Generation. It's now in 4th Generation, waiting to be transfered to fifth. In 4th Gen it was a mere Horsea, but I EV trained it with all the IVs and now it's a Kingdra.

 

[Giratina ♀]

...Jeez, Rilence, thanks for the giant spoiler... > < /been trying to keep off of that sort of thing

Anyway! Yes. I have become attached to a number of my Pokémon. <3

 

[LuVrDiSC]
