Somehow the 3D thing kinda make my eyes feels numb and tired so I only focus on cutscence instead of battle and I tried with special demo on ORAS it's sluggish compare to XY
Usually I tend to switch the 3D off, since sometimes I have issues playing Pokémon when in 3D mode, like some slowdowns or frame skips when in the middle of the battle.
Up until recently, I didn't even have more then one brightness on so I'm pretty self-conscious about battery drainage, plus I don't notice the 3D anyway.
The only times I can remember playing with the 3D on was the first time I played XY and ORAS, during major cut scenes or battles. I leave it off like 95% of the time, though.
Very rarely, I find it hard to keep in the sweet spot and can find it distracting. I might turn it on for a cutscene or to check out some pretty scenery but that's it. I will now try it out during a battle though to see what it's like!
I'll use it now and then for special occasions, like sometimes I'll have it on for battles against trainers I like or when I'm hatching eggs... that way if I hatch a shiny, I'll see it for the first time in 3D. Otherwise I leave it off. It doesn't display correctly and is often hard to look at. I've been told it's because I have the XL, which apparently doesn't display the 3D well and distorts it. It also drains the battery life like crazy, so... that doesn't encourage its use.
