Even so, Game Freak made it so that we could bond with those bits and pieces of Data, given that we spend enough time with them, and even for them to have memories of us, as seen with the girl in one town whop checks the pokemon's memories for you. It just made me wonder, because those bits and pieces of data are programmed to have emotions, as seen through that feature and many others. If the memory girl can show me a pokemon's memories and I can learn that "x pokemon rembered x event with x trainer and rememberes it was moved to tears", then I can feel a little guilty about sending a newly hatched piece of data out into a strange world or to a strange trainer who might neglect it, with that piece of data's only memory of me being the first thing it saw and registered as it's mother, as soon as it came out of it's egg. That's gotta be a traumatic experience for that poor piece of data, and regardless of the Pokemon's feelings about it, isn't it natural for trainers who send their Pokemon away to someone else, to wonder how that Pokemon is doing, on occasion?
