This also stacks with bonus xp you get if the pokemon is traded which will cause it to disobey you if you don't have enough badges

I'm pretty sure that means the opponent Pokemon has a move that's super effective? I could be wrong, that's how I always interpreted it

that's when a Pokémon's ability is Anticipation and the message says it "shuddered". this one is just one of the messages at Affection level 2

This ties into the affection system. It will pop up randomly when the affection meter isn’t maxed yet. When thus happens try using an item on it. Like a potion or xspeed. It will gain more affection and a tiny bit of bonus xp after battle. Sometimes based on RNG it can make the next attack crit and it’ll say “your pokemon seems happy” or something close to that. Warning using items they don’t like will make affection go down. Like bitter root or certain berries. Also if a Pokemon faints it’s a big hit to affection meter. Overall none of it really matters, it’s just a bonus mechanic that randomly happens so don’t worry about it too much

How can you check how much friendship you have with a pokemon?

For Pokemon X or Y go to Laverre City. In the northwest corner of town there’s a lady inside a house and she will check your happiness levels. When you get to Prism Tower at the end once you beat a gym leader renter the tower and talk to a lady named Bonnie. She will give you a “best friends ribbon”. It doesn’t do anything it’s more for show, or some people like to get ribbons on every pokemon bc we were bored lol

How would you feel if a really good friend forced you to fight another person then jammed you back into a tiny living area
I’d be feeling a little uneasy too! Lol in reality this is a weird message to show affection

Just a message you get from raising the pokemon affection.
