    I've never released a single pokemon in my life.. maybe I have, but it'd probably be something useless like bidoof, but yeah, I almost never release pokemons D: Aand I think they probably return to the wild after being released? :'D I don't even know

    Why is it that you release your Pokemon?
    Because too many uneccessary Pokemon will result in the boxes being too full and when I need important Pokemon, there will be no space

    How many Pokemon do you think you've released in your Pokemon Gaming days?
    including the spinoff games (such as Pokemon Rumble Blast) over 10,000 lol

    What do you think happens to Pokemon after you release them?
    they go back to the wild so they can get capture again

    To be honest,I hardly ever release Pokemon.Mainly because I don't catch enough to be releasing them ...
    Most of the time I catch the team and a few slaves and that's it ...
    But I think the released ones just come back to the wild,and live their lives, some want to be caught again,some doesn't.

    It really depends if I'll struggle releasing a Pokémon or not. Most of the time when I got the Pokémon from someone or when I nicknamed it once (even just for fun at the time), I won't be able to release it because it holds a memory. Even a Pokémon that I caught for the sole purpose of how I did not like it, that Pokémon still has a reason why it's in my box.

    Why is it that you release your Pokemon?
    Most of the time to clean up my boxes when they are cluttered.

    How many Pokemon do you think you've released in your Pokemon Gaming days?
    Not a lot, I think 10 at most.

    What do you think happens to Pokemon after you release them?
    They are released into the wild so -story wise- they go back into the wild. But of course their data just gets deleted.

    I've never released a Pokemon in my life as I keep all Pokemon as they might have a use. If I ever do a nuzlocke run, I'll put "dead" Pokemon in a box and never use them again.

    I rarely release them - usually if I really need more box space (not often) then I'll do it I guess. But normally I just dump them on Ranch. XD

    My boxes are pretty much full with 3 spots remaining, because I do a lot of Global Terminal trading for Legendary Pokemon (Definitely Latias!) and I put up Dragonite everytime one is traded (Trust me, you'll get whatever you want if you put Dragonite on offer for a couple of days). But any Pokemon I breed with a Ditto to get a certain Pokemon, I will use them for a trade, but if someone has beaten me to that Pokemon, I will release it.

    But the ones I work on greatly, Shiny Pokemon or the Legendaries (except Phiones), I will NEVER release them. Heck, put them up for a trade and see if you can get what you want before you release them, first.

    I don't. The ones I never use just sit in my PC waiting to be used. They eventually are taken out.

    How many Pokemon do you think you've released in your Pokemon Gaming days?

    I can tell you right now: ZERO.

    What do you think happens to Pokemon after you release them?

    They are destroyed by MissingNo. or GHOST.

    Click to expand...
    Always thought of sending them free into the wild, explore the world, etc. Rather than just getting stuck in the PC
