Just started playing this for the first time after finishing HGSS

How do I get my Pokemon to follow me? Is it unlocked later? Also is there a way to turn on auto running?

I never understood the appeal of following Pokemon. Most Trainers prefer using Pokeballs for a reason
>>

Get fucked you disingenuous faggot

>Also is there a way to turn on auto running?
Mom will give you the running shoes when you get to Accumula Town. You will get the bike in Nimbasa City.
>>
>>59634620
What you expected the most feature-packed games in the franchise to be followed by something with MORE content instead of LESS? What a fool you are. BW cut about 50% of the features from HGSS and before.
>No berries
>No battle frontier
>No following Pokemon
>No GB Player
>No trainer rematches
>No running shoes toggle
>No Safari Zone
>No Pokeathalon
>No Pokemon Contests
>No Pal Park

You still have to hold the B button down like a cuck in BW thoughbeit, in the superior games (HGSS) you have a toggle. Also the bike still requires a toggle. Gen 5 gutted features from the previous, superior games for no reason at all.

>auto running?
Did anyone actually use this?
I don't think I've ever seen anyone use it or talk about it.
>>
>>59634827
If we're being honest, both games were being developed at the same time by different development teams, so they both likely took different directions.


>>59634803
Very few actually used it.
>>
>>59634803
>Also the bike still requires a toggle.
That's standard in every single game. You set the bike in your key items and press Select/Y to use it. Including HGSS. What are you even trying to say?
>>
>>59634803
Lol, most of that list is unnecessary. Only lum and leppa/ethers can't be farmed until post game, and while Pokeathalon was cool, all evo stones can be gotten at least once or even twice very easily before post game.
>>
>>59634842
>so they both likely took different directions
Yeah, HGSS went in the “let’s make a polished masterpiece” direction while the other went in the “let’s make rushed slop” direction
>>
>>59634930
But enough about B2W2 and XY respectively
>>
>>59634934
>B-B-B-B-BUT XY
Concession accepted
>>
>>59634930
If you pay attention to the actual dev timeline, there's no rushing involved
>>
>>59634930
>“let’s make a polished masterpiece” direction
damn they failed pretty hard at that considering how dogshit johto is. i guess grinding out shitty touch screen mini games for tms and stones for hours to further pad out the shittiest region in the franchise sure did something though.
>>
>>59634982
HGSS has everything you need for a good game except for the part where the game is good
>>
>>59634620
Have you already figured out how to berry farm?
>>
>>59635031
that's pretty much well-put

there's no reason HGSS should have failed, but it did
>>
>>59634827
>>59634842
are you joking? who the fuck DIDN'T use the auto-run in HGSS? I don't think it was a major loss or anything, but literally why wouldn't you have it on?
>>

imagine my shock.

>>59634842
>>59634930
the direction they were actually going for was a multiplayer/online focused generation, which of course, is fucking stupid
>>
>>59635113
it wasn't that stupid, it was just a bit too early. XY's online features were very successful and the newest games are online focused. the DS just didn't have robust enough online capabilities. if anything their mistake was developing for the DS when the 3DS was coming out the same year as BW. if they had just developed it for the 3DS instead the online stuff probably would have done a lot better.

How many times have I seen this exact same thread with the BW boxart before?
