feeling bad when your Pokemon faints

[Moltres Rider]

is it just me?

do you feel bad when your Pokemon faints? I start feeling bad for that Pokemon when my Pokemon faints in the game...

 

[Faolan]

Yeah, sometimes when it's my favorite.

 

[Aquacorde]

All. The. Time. :(( I feel like I let them down. /too emotional

 

[Raizhu]

A lot of the time, yes. Sometimes I accept it and know that they wouldn't have won anyway.

 

[Autaven]

I do sometimes yeah. I feel like if Pokemon was real life I would love them like I love my dogs, and if something happened to them I would be devastated... my mind clearly goes to far when I'm playing :P

 

[Oryx]

I used to, but mostly because I didn't know the statistics on happiness and thought that it would make them really unhappy. But now that I know that it barely affects anything, I'm not really affected. xD

 

[PlatinumDude]

I feel bad when my Pokemon faints because I feel that it put so much work into battling. That, and I get frustrated when I need to use that Pokemon later on.

 

[shengar]

Nope. Not at all. I know that fainting is unavoidable consequences in battle. Sad over for a Pokemon that faint in battle will make me feel that I'm not ready as battler yet.

 

[Ray F]

I used to never feel bad when any of my Pokémon fainted.
After playing a Nuzlocke I feel weird when any of my Pokémon faints.

I mean, now I feel weird but right after playing those Nuzlocke challenges I used to feel that I was cheating when my Pokémon fainted and I didn't released them, I felt like they were dead. Damn you Nuzlocke Challenge.

 

[NothingPersonal]

I do feel a little bad inside, but if you think more deeply about it, it's only just a game. Pokemon fainting is bound to happen, so don't make a big deal out of it.

 

[=(^.^)=]

Yes >.<
I even will buy them a special treat for forgiveness, like a lemonade or sodapop or vitamin or something.
But yeah <3 :3

 

[2Cool4Mewtwo]

I used to not really care, but doing couple nuzlocke challenges changed all that belief. I now deeply care for my pokemon, even if they tend to be "just pixels."

Where's the fun in having no feeling of as if you were in the game? :p

Btw, yeah I feel bad if it is a favorite of mine. I even feel bad that I sometimes use one on my team as a 'damage taker' while I heal the others and what not.

 

[gvgisdi]

I always feel bad when one of my Pokémon faints.

 

[7Mufasa7]

nah, well unless it did a really good job battling.

just revive them and theyre fine :)

 

[Pyrax]

I normally get annoyed when my pokémon faints, especially if that particular pokémon is important for a strategy I'm planning.

 

[Perriechu]

I only get annoyed when they faint. ): Mainly because I'm trying to rush and them fainting makes it worse. If anything I feel annoyed when they faint. I don't really feel emotions for Pokemon, lol. I used to, a few years ago.

 

[Legobricks]

A bit. When the team's main tank gets OHKO'd (assuming it lacks the sturdy body ability), it's most shocking and disappointing.

 

[psyanic]

I get angry and disappointed, but not really guilty.

 

[Pokemon Trainer Touko]

I feel really guilty because I always think that they'd hate me and etc. :/
