Saw this before and I had no idea, are there other Pokémon besides shaymin that have cool walking effects when they are your buddy?

Gardevoir’s dress drags on the floor
If I remember correctly Meloetta changes the background music when walking around.
Dialga glides instead of walking sometimes. It’s kinda majestic
Do Sky Shaymin, it prances in the air with flower trails and will do zooomies too.
Also, if you get the 6th celebration outfit with the Flabebe shirt, it perfectly matches Sky Shaymin. It’s my outfit whenever it’s my buddy
Damn, I might’ve paid for the little hedgehog if I knew that.
Charizard will switch between flying and lumbering around when you tap on him.
You’re playing Pokémon Go, but he’s playing Pikmin Bloom
My Smeargle face plants all the time.
Golem will roll
Magikarp flops and slowpoke moves very slowly, struggling to catch up
Rayquaza flies super hi…
Nosepass always returns facing north after you tap on it
Croagunk walks like a dude who just left the bar at 3 a.m. after binge drinking all night.
The Galarian legendary birds soar and flap high in the air above you instead of defying gravity in a frozen avian T pose behind you.
Zekrom flies almost as high up as the Rocket balloons when he’s your buddy! 💁🏼♀️
If you watch Ludicolo dance long enough his hat almost falls off and he stops to catch it.
I like that Emolga hops up and glides around as a flying squirrel should.
Venusaur leaps like a frog.
hitmontop breakdances like his life depends on it
Litwick family lights up
Purified pokemon have the purified particle effect wherever they walk
Riolu is currently my buddy and, whenever he’s moving, he does the Naruto ninja run.
Torchic has the most adorable zoomies
This is one of the neatest threads I’ve read!
Joltik jumps around like a flea
Galarian Runerigus is usually a floating coffin but breaks into pieces when you poke him while on the map
If you leave Garchomp behind; he glides/flies towards you. It looks like an actual shark streaming through water from the aerial view.
Spiritomb will drag the odd keystone that it’s attached to around. It’s been a while since I used it as a partner, but from what I remembered it would stretch itself out, it’s face would stay where it was, but then the bottom half with the keystone would be dragged to where it’s face is. I actually stopped using it as my partner because I felt bad about it dragging itself along to keep up with me.
furret as a buddy is a delight, boop them once and they do the cutest dang thing. if you listen closely enough you’ll hear the furret walk flute
Watch Magikarp try to keep up with you on the highway.
My legal department made me add this:
Only when you’re a passenger, obviously.
People should really appreciate all the hard work the animators and developers put in to making all these unique animations for EVERY single Pokémon. I know we can be hard on them but I’ve been having a blast with Pokémon go. This year has had so many great events so far. Happy to be part of a community like this 🙂
