"Who else is always reluctant to switch out their team for new catches?"

Looking back over all my games ahead of getting Sun & Moon, I've realised I always try and hang on to my early catches as soon as possible, and am usually really reluctant to trade them out. Often end-game team will be at least half formed from guys I caught in the first few hours.For example, in Black I had Unfezant in my final team, which was my first catch in the entire game as Pidove. My Stoutland made it most of the way too until I finally admitted he was no longer bringing that much to the party.In my current Blue replay my Nidoking is guaranteed a permanent place in the team even though I have an Ivysaur and Graveller covering his bases already.I think a rational explanation is that since I've been training them up since level 5 or whatever, it feels like a wasted effort if I switch out say, my Graveller for a Rhydon with the same or better stats. It's the same reason I never use legendaries these days, it feels cheap to just have this preset killer beast handed to you.On the other hand maybe I'm just being pathetically sentimental about a bunch of pixels - something my wife freely admits to.Anyone else make excuses to hang on to their teams in the face of actual logic? via /r/pokemon http://ift.tt/2dFwDjG
