    After visiting the Dream World and befriending a Pokemon by winning at their game, your Pokemon is transferred to Entree Forest in the Entralink. After that, you have to capture the Pokemon that appears in Entree Forest in order for it to be added to your party or box.

    How often do you visit the Entree Forest to do this (assuming you've used the DW at least once)? Do you visit the forest straight after you've used the Dream World - eager to grab your Pokemon? Or do you maybe let the forest build up until you have like 20 Pokemon to capture at once? And if you've only used the Dream World once (and only befriended one Pokemon), is that Pokemon still sitting in the forest, ready to be captured?

    As a side note, nevermind whether it's actually possible or not, wouldn't it make more sense that the Pokemon you befriended is actually just found in your box rather than you having to catch it? Cause y'know with Team Plasma's message of freeing Pokemon, it's kinda ironic that in your dreams the only way to stay friends with a Pokemon is by capturing them. Just a thought!

    If you've not used the Dream World & befriended a Pokemon, it's best you skip the top part and just share your thoughts on the second part of this post. :)
     
    I don't play with the Dream World, but I think it would have made more sense if the Pokemon you befriend there goes straight to your PC as opposed to you catching them because some people may not like going through the trouble of catching a Pokemon.

    You get to pick what Pokeball to use / the opportunity to nickname without need of the Name Rater. Pretty convenient.

    Besides, no other Pokemon insertion has ever sent Pokemon to our PC. Either we capture it, talk to an NPC who gives it to us, or it's added to our party when we have a free slot.

    THOUGH, they really do need to invent the Ball Switcher device that lets us customize our Pokeballs. I just hate the look of Ultra Balls.
     
    I've pretty much been building up most of my dream world Pokémon for a few weeks now, I don't think I'll go into entree forest and capture them all just yet. ~

    On the whole, "Not going straight to your box and having to Capture them first" I guess it's just a way of making sure most people aren't completely ignoring the C-Gear. xD I enjoy it anyway, but I guess it would be a little cooler if they make it so we could capture them on the actual website instead, it would be pretty cool looking at how the Battle thingee would look on a computer screen. :D
