4th Gen Pokeathlon Discussion

[PaxAmericana]

Just discuss about pokeathlon like your records, what you like about it, etc...

I like all the events it has!

 

[Logan_AT]

I can't decide which event I like best! I do have more trouble with events like goal roll and pennant capture, though I suspect the latter has to do with what Pokemon I keep entering.

I found it funny when my Quagsire placed second in hurdle dash when the other two pokemon on the team had higher speed than he did...I still have no idea how that happened. He went on to become my first medalist Pokemon too!

I absolutely hate Goal Roll. I have a hard time guiding my Pokemon to the goal, and when I do, I accidentally let the other team score. But I did get a high score of 17 on it with Combusken, Marshtomp and Linoone a short while ago.

I hate Pennant Capture, too, because it's hard to navigate past the rocks and umbrellas, especially with those with bad Skill.

I had problems with Lamp Jump at first because I had a hard time jumping sideways, but I got the hang of it.

I almost always win at Ring Drop and Disc Catch and they have become 2 of my favorite events.

I love the Stamina and Speed Events! I can honestly say, it's the most easiest of all the events. Though, I hate the Jump events. It wont let me jump sideways so it's hard catching the flying discs.

Goal roll was murder for me...that was until, for the life of me, score 11 points in one game. In the Supreme Cup no less. Another game that I have a hard time in is in the Hurdle jump(is this what it's called?) I just never seem to get the timing right.
However, my strongest game is Relay Run. My best score(if I remember correctly) is 18.2 laps in Single, and 15.6 in Link Pokeathlon.

Block smash and sprint events are best; the rest take too much effort (especially the ball catch one my god -_-).

 

[beedy]

i like the block smash event too, really awesome

 

[Dooonerz]

I loved the sprint one? I think it was as many times you could get around the circuit in the time? Yeah that was awesome. <3
I also loved the sumo one, where you push the other pokemon off of the platform <33

I think the pokéathlon is much too easy.
The only problem is that you need a lot of medalist pokémon to get al those trophies, I'm now at 36.
In relay run I got 20.1 laps.

Well, hard trier here, I've won almost all trophies based on records, except Remnant Capture. I suck so much at this course. Still, what's with you guys, Goal Roll is easy ;D

 

[solarowl]

I hate goal roll because you can onu control one pokemon at a time ad usually it gets tired after chasing the ball. Pennant capture is hard for me because sometimes I stroke in the wrong direction and another pokemon gets it.

I like Lamp Jump and Disc Catch because I have pokemon with high jump.
I also like brick smash because I find it easy to just tap at the screen quickly with pokemon of high power.

 

[Kitrigar]

I love playing Lamp Jump and Brick Smash because they're the easiest to get 1st place on. Lol.
I hate Goal Roll because I'm a failure at multi-tasking and I only focus on one Pokemon.

 

[LuVrDiSC]

pokeathelon is actually "ok" for a minigame type thingy which i usually h8... but im anoyed at it cus i cant complete the skill course and jump course in 1st Place. im trying to use only 1 team to get all 1st Place Blissey, Snorlax, TogeKiss...

i absolutly HATE the Snow Throw h8it! h8it! h8it!

 

[Impo]

every single pokemon i own is a medalist pokemon.
that is not much, but my plan is to get 493 pokemon and 493 medalists :)

 

[den899pop]

one thing i hate the most is the snowball fight, i keep missing!!!!!!!

 

[123wert50]

I hate pennant capture and goal roll.

 

[den899pop]

I hate pennant capture and goal roll.

the easiest way for me to survive is leave the biggest strongest pokemon near the goal while the rest get the ball

 

[Impo]

one thing i hate in goal roll is when you shoot and the ball is just in front of the line, and someone faster kicks it in. goal thief =.=

and not to mention circle push, when you have all 3 of your pokemon on the 5 point circle and an annoying jerk pushes two off at the last second. makes me rage .-.

 

[Starchomp]

I dont like the pokeathlon too much, I just think its a boring gimmick, I never really got into it

Relay Run

I think the pokéathlon is much too easy.
