What height limit?

My bad I really need to keep up with this thread...does that mean a Wailord can follow you around?

[VirusChris]

What about a Goldeen? Will it just fly?


But seriously to have your Pokemon following, and all 493, it just plain awesome! Why they never did it for D/P/P versions I'll never know.


I'm curious, the Pokemon that follows you around is it the 1st Pokemon in your slot or will you have control of which Pokemon you want to follow you around and choose to stop your Pokemon from following you around.

Because they're grasping for straws until they come up with the 5th generation.

Honestly, I stick by with my original thoughts on this. I don't care that they're remaking Gold and Silver for the DS. Gold and Silver were revolutionary because it was the second generation, which added 100 new pokemon and added two new types, and that was completely awesome. The only real difference now is we're playing GS with DP pokemon, which sounds exciting because of the changes they'll make to the gym leaders or Elite Four, but honestly, it's pretty much the same thing over and over now. For me, it's gotten stale.

I believe it was the pokemon the first slot last I remember.

1] Magikarp

Seriously people, this is the golden answer.

[Sakura Leic]

No Absol or Lucario?

[Dr. Wily II]

The sight of a flopping on land Magikarp is ALL that's needed.

Speaking of which... Jelly hasn't appeared here after this piece of news.
I wonder if he's twitching on the ground right now...

[Solar]

As much as I want my Absol to follow me around too (and Nintendo should also so add riding Pokemon without an HM to the games >.>), the appeal of a Magikarp splashing around everywhere while following you > everyone else.

[VixyNyan]

I don't see Eevee on that list... moving along.

[Sparky]

I don't see Eevee on that list... moving along.

I'm sorry; that spot's reserved for Gengar. 

[Tickle Buffalo]

Why the hell would you want a Gengar following you anyway? Best to keep that guy where you can see him.

[Archer]

I'm gonna have a Crogunk following me.

[Sparky]

I dunno about you, but I keep my Gengar in my shadow, and that's good enough for me. >>;

[Dr. Wily II]

I'm gonna have a Crogunk following me.

And Poison Jab you everytime you try to flirt?

[Archer]

And Poison Jab you everytime you try to flirt?

Pretty much.

[Dr. Wily II]

A tiny bit more news.

With regards to all 493 Pokemon being able to walk around with you, they seem to be able to pick up items as well, just like walking in Amity Square in DPPt. So, berries and fashion accessories. Whether it's a set set, or Pokemon-dependent, is still not known.

Wonder how this will affect Pokemon like Linoone, whose only use is to pick up things.

[Dr. Wily II]

Hmm, good question.
In my case, all Pokemon with Pickup will not be in first position.

[Gotham Ranger]

Quilava for the win

[Protoman Blues]

Again, I think I'm gonna have to train two Cyndaquil's now.  One to follow me around at ALL times, and another to grow into Typhlosion.

That is so cool.

[STM]

I'll probably have Arceus or Mew with me. But I'll definitely have a Magikarp leading at some point.

[Pringer X]

probably not much, Linoone can be anywhere on the list to pick up stuff, and odds are it will still pick up better items than whatever pokemon is following you. The higher the level, the better items Linoone got.

[HokutoNoBen]

Yes

Very yes!

I want those D:

You echo my sentiments, Taiyo. 

But any way, yes. Now I can have my trust Machamp follow me, or any of my other favorite road-dawgs, like Totodile, Charmander and etc. Preorder confirmed!
