GameFreak used "Helping Hand!" Seriously though, these games are very hand-holdy and linear with lots of cutscenes. I like a lot of the changes but the pacing is sloooooow and get used to a cutscene every 5 minutes. Also the new feature where every single wild pokemon can call for back-up help is overused and annoying. For special battles it seems perfectly fine but when every level 3 caterpie can call for help in an endless loop it's annoying. I feel like it would have been better if it was a much lower chance of happening, and if it took the pokemons turn. Right now you can hit a pokemon, "sturdy" ability keeps it alive, it calls for help and then attacks you at the same time. Even if you kill it the new pokemon that came to help can also call for help... so on and so forth. And you can't catch pokemon if there's more than one on the field. So getting pokemon to low hp is necessary to catch them but also increases the chance they will call for help. Hell, I've had them call for help when their hp wasn't even half yet. That's not to say it's not fun, but if you don't like cutscenes and every single path other than the one they want you to take being blocked off for stupid reasons like, "My pokemon is very picky and needs to find every single buried item here, please come back when it's done!" you might have a hard time getting into it. |

Currently downloading pokemon moon (europe), had to erase everything from my sd card to even have the space to download it. Most likely not even gonna be able to play due to lack of space for the savefiles and extra data. Will be getting a 64gb micro sd card to replace the default one tomorrow though lol |

If you put a status effect on the Pokemon it can't call for help. That's why when I go Pokemon hunting I bring out my Pikachu first and use Nuzzle immediately to paralyze it so it can't call for help. Muahahah. But yes, the calling for help aspect is slightly annoying. |

Got to the first challenge of the second island and I'm about to play it again. been trying to evolve my even munchlax so I get the snorlax and I get annoyed everytime my greninja doesn't listen lol. Yeah I hate the calling for help. Unlike past games I probably won't need to use any guides until some parts of after games because of how straight forward the main storyline is thanks to the rotom Pokedex's flag feature on the map.
