So your Pokemon's reactions can change depending on your location

[$aturn¥oshi]

My Feraligatr loves splashing around in puddles. I was walking around with her yesterday, and when I talked to her, she had an item but liked it too much to give it up. I kept talking to her and she would let out a roar and get really annoyed.

 

[Takoto]

My Gastly Zane just hugged me! <3

...Hey wait... Gastly don't have arms! How is that possible?!

 

[Falconwing]

My Gastly Zane just hugged me! <3

OH MY ARCEUS! TAKOTO IS BEING SMOTHERED! SOMEONE GET HIM OUT!


That is kinda funny.

 

[Takoto]

(Get her out you mean :3).


And yeah, I can imagine my character trying not to cough as smothers her head with his... well, head... ball-head? What should I call it? xD

Or maybe he just manipulates the gases around him to circle round the trainer so it appears as though the Gastly is hugging their trainer... xD

 

[pikachu200]

*girls trainer


Ho-Oh hugged you!

Me: ...this feels nice



Silver: ...grrr!

 

[Ierdar]

"Golduck is worried about the trap."

At the end of Victory Road.(Long after I beat my rival)

 

[pikachu200]

Lol of course they made the victory road easy because you fight the rival at the end

 

[Kemine]

My Pidgeotto roared at me on er...route 31 after I tried to take its item. *roars back*

 

[pikachu200]

*Bowser [Typlosion] snuggled against you*


Me: Owch! It burns!!!

 

[jennytablina]

I took my Pokemon to paddle by the beachy area of Cherrygrove.

Non-water types without a specific weakness feel "refreshed" to be wet
Water types will splash and have a ball
Both will be very happy afterwards

Fire types HATE it though. My Vulpix wasn't impressed at being wet then turned away defiantly, looked angry, and roared at me. Was *still* angry after being healed at Pokemon Center and didn't cheer up till it won a battle.

In Bell Tower Pokemon get concerned about the swaying pillar or dance around it, they might also slip into you (I suppose to indicate a slight fear of the ghosts?)

 

[Keegman]

It's not a reaction thing, but I just noticed this: when you're fishing, the exclamation point shows up above your Poke's head, instead of yours. It's a little touch that I really like.

 

[Geodude]

Or maybe he just manipulates the gases around him to circle round the trainer so it appears as though the Gastly is hugging their trainer... xD

That actually makes sense. The Gastly line are able to pass through walls and things after all, so if they can dissipate their gases that much and reform afterward, and become temporarily solid enough to use certain physical attacks, it only stands to reason that they can become solid enough to do something like hugging.

 

[IslandWalker]

My Meganium roared at me two times today. When I was on an island near Cianwood, she was playing in the sand.

 

[Soulweaver]

Just started the game, and my Chikorita's already awesome
"CHIKORITA is rolling around in the grass."
"CHIKORITA is munching at the grass."
"CHIKORITA is waving its leaf around." <3

 

[Keegman]

Today I got "Marshtomp is putting in extra effort!" and my reaction was, "At what, little man? We're in the Safari Zone, you don't have to do shit."

 

[Obsolete Disks]

Sure he does. Who do you think finds the rocks or makes the balls of mud?

 

[Keegman]

I did imagine him being the one carrying all those blocks for me.

Two more:

"Marshtomp is in danger of falling over!" (He is apparently a drunk.)

[Frowny face] "Marshtomp's face shows a drop of sweat!" (We're at Mt. Silver, apparently he's nervous about being vastly underleveled.)

 

[7tx]

When I stand on a bridge my Poliwrath is like "Is there a stream nearby?"

MOIN

 

[Falconwing]

Togepi cries in the Cerulean Gym...

 

[MasterKenobi]

The only reactions that I have really noticed are on Route 33 where it is raining.

It also looks like Serebii decided to make a list of specific locations where you get a different special reaction which can be found here.
