Possibly on the Switch but I doubt it.

What made it work in HGSS was the fact all Pokemon were portrayed as tiny, "chibi" sprites. Now that Pokemon are mostly to scale in battle and such, you wouldn't be able to have Wailord or Alolan Exeggcutor follow you, they're too big.

I think it'd be cool if they made it depend on the location for large pokemon and outright not show giant pokemon following you at all. Basically restrict the feature to certain sizes and restrict certain sizes to certain areas.

Pretty much this. YW managed following just fine.

On more advanced systems, yes. The 3ds can barely handle the models Gamefreak has made, which all have a fuckton of polygons so that they can be used time and time and time and time again.

They could have simplified the models for use on the 3DS and saved the high-poly models in a different file
