Okay guys. I have never been so triggered in my entire fucking life over a mechanic in a game designed for young children.
I understand that there are some cool things it could be used for, but if you happen to be casually passing through an area just trying to complete your dex and a faggot ass bonsly won't stop calling for help then you're in for some fucking pain.
These mother fucking shitheads added a """feature""" to the game that allows wild pokemon to call for help instantly (aka before your final attack or throw of a ball) and it can be done infinitely. The stupid fucking game won't let you throw a ball when there is more than one enemy for some retarded ass reason so you are forced to piss away time (and possibly items like potions just to stay alive early game) while you wait for a single fucking opportunity to capture the little shit. It isn't an attack (like it fucking should be) so you can't priority attack through it. Worse yet, the summoned pokemon can start calling for help if you finish off the first. This should absolutely be the "off switch" for this shit is to "stop the source". But no. Piles of hot shit ratatas dumped onto your chin because of this well tested addition to the series.
Am I missing something? Is there a way to stop this stupid fucking shit from happening until I'm ready to farm for shinys or stat points or some shit?
God fucking forbid I want to just end the little fucker and be on my way. He'll just call for help and I'm stuck a full turn or until I finally wise up and just run, xp be damned.
Holy actual fuck. I'm prepared to organize some sort of god damn petition or customer service raid over this shit. Please tell me I'm just an idiot an missed the addition to the game that disables this fucking trash.
just status them
ITT: OP cries like a bitch because a child's videogame is too difficult.

It isn't hard its just the most irritating time wasting shit in the world. Effectively giving gym leaders and shit infinite Full Restores or whatever.

afflict them with a status effect
>>30169542
*"effectively giving gym leaders infinite item usages" that is
>>30169559
Oh thank christ. Does this actually stop the faggot from calling for more waves of cannon fodder?
Gonna test now.
>>30169542
Any status condition prevents them from calling for help.
You are bad at the game. This is a child's game and you are struggling as much as a Smeargle that used Sketch on someone switching Pokémon.
>>30169440
This is indeed hell.
>>30169619
thats what i've been told by numerous people.
It's too bad there's not a ball you can throw out on the first turn that has a really high success rate.
>>30169619
Yes.
Its something so simple that it amazes me we still have this threads.
Go forth and TW your way to a regional dex.

I'll give you free points for putting in that much effort when you could have just said "game b 4 bbys git gud"

Good thing they provide those ball types right at the start of the game at the same price as a standard pokeball :^) you're such a smart guy

still a pain in the dick if that pokemon type happens to be immune from whatever you're casting on them, or if you're a giant chump who doesn't have status moves with you somehow
