Pokemon Memories. Intrusive or entertaining?
So in X&Y's Anistar city, just outside the Pokemon Center, is a Furisode Girl who offers to check your Pokemon's memories, free of charge. While completely irrelevant to the gameplay, I can't help but enjoy the little blurbs that help me see inside the minds of my Poke' pals; and understanding their feelings about me, as their trainer and the experiences shares on our journey together. I'll go ahead and share a few that I found cure and interesting, and encourage others to do the same. :)
Looking at my Starchild's (shiny Umbreon's) memories, I was told by the Furisode Girl that "Starchild saw Saya secretly pick up something at a riverside city. The Pokemon remembers that it got overwhelmed with emotion." I laughed at this because as I was in battle with Starchild, shortly before having its memories read, he was jumping around excitedly and the pre-battle blurb I got was that he seemed to be interested in something in my bag. So I like how that kind of tied in together. Reading my Hawkeye's (Fletchinder's) memory revealed that "when Pumpkaboo jumped out, Hawkeye was surprised and ran away with Saya. The Pokemon remembers that it felt sorry." Now, I found this one to be both cute and a little bit sad. Like Hawkeye just seemed so hard on herself; as if it was her fault for being scared and running, when I- the trainer- made the decision to avoid battling the wild Pumpkaboo. I can't help but feel really bad. ): There's another blurb that I simply found hilarious, and this one's from my un-nicknamed Watchog. It said; "Watchog was excited when Saya won with her lotto ticket and won prizes like PP ups. The Pokemon remembers that it got teary-eyed." This just made my morning. Honestly. I was smiling something fierce . I had captured Watchog only a few hours before, and just to learn that it was already so attached to me that such raw, pure emotion; such unbridled happiness was drawn out of it, in the short time we spent together; all because I happened to win 2nd place in the Lumiose lotto...it was just nuts! XD Such crazy, loving support from my Poke' pals- it really is something! Yipes. Knocked off the first page with no replies? Bummer. |
I use this from time to time. I did notice that she did make a mistake with one of my Pokémon though...forget which one though. I find Blaziken's memory most interesting as she says he has a interesting memory, but he can't recall it...proably due to it being an event legendary.

I was intrigued with event torchic/ Blaziken's memory reading. If it's interesting, I wanna knooow! -whine- Way to torture curious trainers, like that DX |
I think it's kinda cool, it's a nice little feature though i haven't used it much at all :P

I didnt even know this feature existed! Most of the pokemon remebered stuff that i didnt even remember. But my Gardevoir did remeber evolving from Kirilia when i was at the elite four. Also the Rufflet i evolved into Braviary remembered when its OT caught it and traded it to me. very interesting feature.

I think it's kind of cute that then you check traded Pokemon's memories, they remember their history with their OT's, but at the same time, it's kind of annoying, like they're longing for their old OT, with those memories brought up. Makes me feel like I'm not worthy to have those traded refugees with me. |
It's a neat little feature that I use every now and then. My Pokemon seem to remember the weirdest things, like Jolteon remembering the time I taught it Volt Switch, Sableye remembering the time I used a bunch of Irons on it. I think I would've preffered it if the memories changed after a while, so I didn't always get the same dialog. I do like, though, how traded Pokemon remember all their previous trainers.

I think it's a pretty cool feature, though I only used it once and it mentioned something about battling the first Gym Leader, as it was my starter. I think little things like this just make the game all that more realistic feeling because it shows the game isn't as linear as the games before it.
