4th Gen "You don't have to press the B button anymore!"

[BHwolfgang]

In the distant past, the player must be required to press and hold the B button to run. However, in HG/SS, this method was replaced by a stylus that allows the player to automatically run at his/her will.

This is probably the greatest change done to the remake. It's sooooooooooooo much easier traveling to places now. I wasn't a big fan of bicycling; I mainly traveled the region via running, swimming, and flying. Now I don't have the fear of breaking my B button anymore.

So, who else idolizes this grand innovation as much as I do?

Do you even use this feature?

 

[PokéSwimmer]

I love this feature. I think it was meant to encourage people to travel by foot so they could make more use of the "follow me" feature. It's a real shame they took it out of Black and White.

 

[bobandbill]

I also quite liked the feature, and thought it should have been introduced earlier.

And then B/W came along without the small yet useful featuree. Sure, it's minor, but why should anyone have to hold the button if they want to go faster?

 

[Gbamast]

I loved it! Very Useful and saved time! Shame they got rid of it in black and white :/

 

[PlatinumDude]

So, who else idolizes this grand innovation as much as I do?: I enjoyed being able to run without holding down the B Button.

Do you even use this feature?: Yes, I did. I never turned the Running Shoes off either.

 

[RyanGT]

This feature made my life so much easier, wish they would have stuck with it.

Oh well, there's always next generation...

 

[Scraggy123]

I prefer using the bicycle but still a great feature.

 

[p3ndu1um]

I never noticed it to be honest with you, but I've always used the "B" button.

 

[Giratina ♀]

I didn't like this feature very much at all. It felt kinda... unnatural. XD I kept on using the B button, just as I always did.

 

[JamesJL98]

I think it's a nice feature, but I use the bicycle more than I run.

 

[Rainbow-Starlight]

It makes things much easier since I always use the touch screen on this game and love running with my Pokémon. :)

 

[FrostPheonix]

Best thing ever!
Unluckily, old habits are hard to break. I still involuntarily click b when I need to run...

 

[King N]

I also still press b
even when cycling

 

[Shining Raichu]

I didn't really even notice the feature, I just held B regardless. It's never been that much of a hassle for me lol

 

[Harmonie]

I don't use it. Just feels a little unnatural to me. Sometimes I just prefer to walk, as well.

 

[BattleBeard]

Whenever the third Black/White thing comes out, it'll probably have this awesome invention. And the follow me feature.

After all, more awesome, yet minor features in the third version = more money for Gamefreak!

I never use it. I just miss my following Pokemon!

 

[institutions]

I loved it. I always run/fly everywhere so it was great for me :D
The only time I ever use the bike is when i'm hatching eggs.
It's very inconvenient to have to equip your bike everytime you come out of a building.

I was devastated when I saw they didn't put it in Black and White.
Now I have to hold down B everywhere D:

 

[skyluigi2]

I don't like it.
I don't use it.

I definitely prefer using the B button.
... I just do.

[Metal Electric]

I really liked it! Really helpfull, but pressing the B button isn't a problem either.

 

[ElectricScyther]

I just use B. It's a habit.
