And then unintentionally eating you whilst smiling due to its size (kidding :D)

This sounds kinda fun, and it is ok for me.
but it may suck for people who don't want any Pokémon following them. Plus, if it is the first Pokémon, on training sessions it may be annoying having a pokemon you don't want to out.

True. In that case, I hope it's optional. They could easily include an option for it in the options menu.

I have a feeling that the whole 'finding accessories' thing is gonna get annoying after a while.
 
Surely looking forward to this even more now.
 
I Have always wanted to drag a giant Steelix
around just for laughs and now I finally can!

that would be sweeet!
and if your pokemon thats out of its ball is the one with like rock smash, when you use it, you could move out the way and the pokemon could smash the rock.

yeah that would be the most craziest thing
 
I saw this earlier, i think it would be cool if when Surfing your shown to be riding the actual Pokémon that knows surf instead of something random like we usually have, with this announced i think this will be very possible.
 
Well this is interesting I cant wait to see how Pokemon that cant walk will follow you.Also giant Pokemon will they be shrunk down to be able to follow you? Will flying Pokemon fly or walk behind you? If they walk how will crobat walk? These are questions I cant wait to answer.

Yeah, I was talking about this earlier it would be a nice edition to the games if they do this. And the same thing with "Flying".
 
I don't like this idea. I can't believe they are doing it this way. It was enough for me to have that Pikachu follow me around in Yellow. I really don't need all Pokemon following me in these games. This is a small thing, and wouldn't keep me from buying it though.

That is a lot of questions to be answered. However, my thought is that Pokémon like Magikarp will probably flop behind or aside of you. Pokémon that can fly I think may be portrayed like something in Pokémon Ranger. I can picture some water types floating besides you, such as the epic appearance of Wailord.

As for their size, I would say no more than one tile should be taken up. This is because, like mentioned before, to get through smaller areas. As for Crobat, I think that'll be a Pokémon found floating in the air next to you. Yep, there is a lot of different ways this can be done, but we'll see how it works out. I do agree though, this should be optional for some players as I know it'll get annoying for others at some time and point.
 
Huh, One problem with the surfing/flying bit: what if the pokemon couldn't naturally learn the move? I'm sure surfing pikachu would be in there, but any event pokemon with a field move. Wouldn't that get kinda glitchy? or maybe it'd just kinda do a head-bobbing thing in the water? not to even begin on flight...

But, it would be freaking sweet if you could actually fly on rayquaza, instead of just hearing about it. :P
 
So it is confirmed then? Hmm, very interesting. This will bring a lot of attention to the game and bring more fun. I can have my Weezing, Flareon or Chikorita follow me everywhere. :D The only thing I would find funny is a Goldeen following someone on land haha.
 
I really cant wait to have metagross behind me all the time.
 
How awesome is this? I've always wanted this ever since I lost my Pokémon Yellow. And all 493 Pokémon?When I saw this on Bulbapedia, I jumped out of my chair and STARTED PARTYIN'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELLZ YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!

(Sorry, reeeeeeeaaaaly hyper.)
 
But having a ghost like Haunter or Gengar following you would be weird. They're sort of rumored to "eat people's souls" or something like that while you're walking around...

And Giratina would probably be the most likely to cut/strike/devour you when you're not looking, IMO. *shudders*

Still, this feature will be awesome and I hope Game Freak uses it in future games! :D
 
Wow! ANY Pokemon?? That's so cool!!!!1!11 XD I would LOVE Lucario or Absol to follow me about! =D

Even though their look is intimidating and their PokéDex entries say things of this sort, it doesn't necessarily mean it'll happen. I mean if you put one end of the rope together you'll realize Pokémon like Giratina and Gengar are ghosts, and with all ghosts comes scary stories meant to scare people.

We've seen tons of trainers and anime involving Gengar and such, but they never went to eat anyone or devour their souls. All the less though, when you mention Gengar, I've got to admit it'll be pretty cool to see it following me around.

I think this feature will allow me to catch more Pokémon just so I can see their OW sprite following me around.
 
Plus I don't think that if its your Haunter or Gengar I don't think they'd eat your soul because they'd probably be close to you. Morty in the amine always had his Gengar out with no problems. None the less this feature should be interesting! I think though that some water pokemon that are pure fish won't be able to follow you on land.
 
This is the coolest thing ever! I can have Lugia following me! XD I'm definitely getting these games now. Just so I can see the pokemon following me. This is so cool! LOL @ pic of Steelix. That's just awesome! XD

Pokemon I would like to see follow me...any! lol I might even get Pokemon I don't normally use just to see how it looks when it follows me. This is my incentive to get all the Pokemon for once. I want my level 90 Dragonite following me! That's it! I'm trading my Dragonite to this game. (It's now in Platinum originally from Leafgreen and it will be in my Heart Gold.)
