    I don't know, but this idea is great, but then again I really haven't played the game that long since I was playing my friends copy. But some people are complaining about the Pokemon following you and I find it very cute. Anyways, you can't turn off the Pokemon following you. So the question is, does this really annoy you?

    Personally, I love it. Its what makes the game unique, and is one of its main features/selling points. I cand imagine HG/SS without the pokemon following you :/

    I thought we were going to talk about those "~*!*~" you keep putting in.
    It's okay either way. Just a small feature that was put into the game to show the potential that Nintendo had and didn't use :/
    It doesn't matter if it's in the game, or if it isn't.

    It wont really bother me much. I wont be paying much attention to them anyways so I dont think it will be a problem... hopefully.

    ^ to that. Wailord would be something to see. d(''d)

    I personally love my Yanmega following me everywhere. I love the effort that was used to input this kind of "extra" for us.

    That's about about 3000 overworld sprites they could have left out.

    I originally thought I would but... now it just seems natural. I don't like it, it just hasn't annoyed yet.

    I think its a nice feature.
    I just dont like it when the Pokemon has to run to catch up to me.
    Like Sentret. I don't like it's Overworld.

    I didn't bother with sentret anyway...
    but as to what you were saying, it's really stupid when you jump over an edge and it (the pokemon) suddenly speeds up then slows down. I mean, it's funny and cute, but it peeves me a bit.
    Yeah.

    I've always dreamed that they'd add this feature so it doesn't annoy me at all. It's amazing.

    You know, it actually does annoy me a little sometimes.
    I like it most of the times, but just sometimes I would like them to stop following me...
    If they programmed this, why couldn't they make it so that we can choose when to let them out and when to not?

    It doesn't annoy me it's finnaly something like pokemon yellow again.
    Remember a lot of people liked that pikachu walking behind you.
    Although with a box deposit it was gone.
    I just like it that the pkmn follow you.

    I like it. It would have been better if they had still sprites too, instead of left-right-left-right all the time, but it's not a big deal, and it's fun to tr and see as many overworlds as you can.
