These settings are best for players looking to enjoy the game's story at a steady pace and immerse themselves with story elements, such as giving each Pokemon they catch nicknames and experiencing the battle animations!
This setting toggles whether you want to give a newly caught Pokemon a nickname.
When toggled on, you are given a prompt to give a caught Pokemon a nickname. When toggled off, the newly caught Pokemon is immediately sent to your team or boxes.
This setting toggles whether the game autosaves or requires manual saving. Generally, it's best to turn off the autosave as there are several points of no return in the game, such as when challenging a Gym or the Elite Four.
It's also best to turn off Autosave if you plan to soft reset certain special Pokemon for the right natures and effort values, such as Starters and Legendary Pokemon.
Enabling Casual Controls lets players easily play the game with one hand, with both left and right sticks allowing you to move the character.
Keep in mind that enabling casual controls also disables the D-Pad and also prevents you from rotating the camera in specific areas such as the Wild Area.
This toggles whether you want to see the nicknames other players gave their Pokemon when camping or battling with them. This setting has no impact on gameplay speed or efficiency.
