ALL ABOUT EEVEE

If the world feels a little static, its non-human inhabitants are anything but. A single Pokémon can be taken out of their ball to follow you around (some can be ridden) but it’s to one of the titular partner Pokémon you’re likely to grow most closely attached. You can feed and pet them in firstperson, and showering them with affection pays off: they’ll shake off status effects and survive ordinarily fatal blows in battle, and even bring you the odd gift.
