Auto Fight is exactly what is seems to be. It makes you fight automatically without pressing any buttons as the computer makes your choices in the turn based battle. This may be a convinient option, but you should be aware of that the computer has it flaws when it comes to strategically "thinking", especially as the battles get more complex later in the game. Now for your confusion: Just go with the flow! It's normal to be confused at the beginning. Most things get an explanation later. This game doesn't throw the solutions in your face. You need to search for them. And the only way to do it is to be willing to explore and talk to people. If exploring is something that annoys you, Earthbound is probably not your cup of tea.
Two videos two days in a row?! Is it Christmas already?!
