Friends in High Places

At the 13th level, due to your connection to Pokémon, you find it easy to find Pokémon friends in the wild. If you or your Partner Pokémon are in danger, a wild Pokémon might jump in and assist you, sensing your bond. The strength of the Pokémon and the willingness might vary depending on where you are and how you’ve treated Pokémon in the area.
