Gifts, requests and games build your relationship independently of a resident’s Comfy Level.

Walkthrough
Treat friendship and Comfy Level as related but separate measures. A home and suitable surroundings address comfort; completing personal requests, giving gifts and playing games also help your relationship with the Pokémon.
Accept a game invitation when one appears. The source describes quizzes and Look This Way: in the latter, choose a direction over three rounds. Playing gives a friendship increase and winning gives a larger one, so a loss is still worth participating in.
As the bond grows, a resident may bring materials, react happily when it sees you and eventually call you by your chosen name. At maximum it announces best-friend status and receives a Pokédex mark. A matching food flavor is useful when choosing a gift.

A game is lost
Playing still improves friendship; a win improves it more.
