hey this pet thing sounds like a great idea. how about adding potions and antidotes etc. to your shop (pokemart) so that a trainer can buy them and use them on their pets (pokemon). that could show what a pokemon feels for his master...
for ex: add some berries to your shop and a berry blender or something and us trainers can make pokeblocks from them and give them to our pokemon. our pokemon would cry, be happy or simply not eat it .
this is sort of like the Neopets thing... but it sounds great to me!
so what do u think?
