I was playing Pokémon Ruby and I was releasing a Tentacool because I had two for some reason. Anyways, so it gives me the usual "Bye-bye, Tentacool!" and he fades away... but this time, the sprite zoomed back in and it was like "Tentacool came back! Maybe he was worried about you?". I've never heard of anything like this before... has this happened to anyone else here? It was a traded Tentacool, if that's relevant.

The only reason that I know of is it's friendship is realllly high so it comes back.
Never heard of the HM one, but you learn something new everyday.

This has never happened to me as I don't release them because I'm scared stiff that they'll eat me I don't wanna.

Those are really good reasons, but I think the: "since I traded it" theory could still remain as a possibility. Because when you trade a pokemon, doesn't it say: "Take good care of ____!"? Or something relevant to that. I think that since it says that, you might be disabled to release that pokemon because then you wouldn't be taking very good care of it. Although what Koolkid005 said, that makes a lot of sense.

On average, 100 people choke to death on ballpoint pens every year. You could be next...

Yeah. I think it happened to one of my pokemon once. I let it go, and it came back. I think after that i kept it in my team for the rest of the game.
I think its friendship. If the pokemon really liked you it wouldn't want to go.

Well that explains why my female gardevoir didn't want to leave when i did it by accident, though when I did it a second time is it said something about being in love with me. Anyway it will also come back if its your strongest pokemon.
Pokemon I choose you!
