** Also consider the fact that in previous gens the games have always acted as though you have strong bonds of love and friendship with your Pokemon and that's why you triumph on your journey, but it was just an informed thing. So actually getting to foster those bonds and seeing the power of love and friendship in action is awesome.

** The Pokédex mentions that anyone who tries to grab Honedge have their life sucked away by its tassel. Honedge doesn't like having its tassel touched, meaning it's probably trying to protect you.

*** Similarly, Espurr doesn't want you to touch its ears because it might lose control of its powers and kill you accidentally.

* At Route 19 before Snowbelle City, there's a bridge you have to cross before reaching Snowbelle City. You then encounter [[spoiler:Shauna, Tierno, and Trevor, who battle you back-to-back. Shauna battles you, acting all eager, whom you battled with the first time immediately after obtaining your Starter Pokemon, so it could be considered very heartwarming to look back at that (she even mentions that). Then Tierno and Trevor appear, where Tierno asks you if he wants a Pokemon Battle, which is something he never asked before, but remembered what you did back at Geosenge Town, then he says it's his best way to express his thanks. Then Trevor asks for a battle ... but not a "Pokedex Battle" like he has been doing throughout the game. He then worries about being weak or strong, then Shauna comments on his being bold. All three of them TookALevelInBadass and all have shown a sign of maturity]].

Additionally, there's a chance that they'll shrug off status changes and survive an attack with one hp, and the text will say something like "[=[Pokemon]=] managed to hang on so [=[Trainer]=] wouldn't worry".

** Mega Kangaskhan has a lot of this when you stop to think about it. When any other Pokemon Mega Evolves, it uses its Mega Stone to undergo a temporary transformation that grants it more power. When Kangaskhan Mega Evolves, the mother itself stays completely unchanged; rather than use the power itself, it instead selflessly gives the energy to it's child, allowing the ''baby'' to Mega Evolve and gain the strength to fight alongside its parent. Combined with the Parental Bond ability and the Mega Evolution animation (where the baby leaps out of the pouch and high-fives the mother), it's touching to think about.

* There's a woman in Anistar City who can read your pokémon's memories of your journey together. Sometimes the results can be a bit silly (such as a pokémon feeling sorry for its trainer using a bicycle) but it's touching when a pokémon remembers how proud it felt when it evolved, or the impact the journey through Reflection Cave had on it, with all the mirrors within.

** The ''entire credits'' is this in spades. Someway in the credits, words below start showing. At first, it shows the words in two languages: the language you selected and French. Then it starts showing multiple languages. The meaning of these words? Cherish life and enjoy it, giving and gratitude does more than taking ever will, and those things will lead to a beautiful world. Sounds cheesy, but it will make at least somebody cry.

More of a meta-example than anything, but as anyone who went to the midnight releases can attest; for a series that, after the "Pokemania" phase, became something of mockery and ridicule, it's both awesome and heartwarming to see so many people show up for a game that was a part of their (and many other people's) childhoods.
