Pokethlon vs. Contests?
Whice one do you like better? I personally am glad to get rid of Contests. They were okay, but snowball fights and sumo wrestling is much better.
Please discuss, and if this thread already exists, I'm terribly sorry. I didn't see one like it, sooo... |
well, we dont know much about them, but i would say Pokethelon. they are just so much more interactive. Contests were basically like really boring battles =/
CONTESTS HAVE JUST BEEN GAGA'D damn, you guys need to head over to the Other Chat section if you want to understand that x3 |
I am personally a contest boff :P
I hope that this Pokeatholon (sp) thingyy will outshine my expectations. |

It easily will. I checked it out on Serebii.net |
Do we win ribbons and such.
Collecting as many ribbons as possible was always something I adored. I gave your pokemon a personal touch. I noticed the accessories are back. Are we sure there is no contests? |
For me, Contests were boring.
And repetitive as I only had 2 moves that were 'cute' im looking forward to this. It's kind of like the Pokemon Stadium mini games! |

If contests are back, Nintendo/Gamefreak are keeping a VERY tight lid on them. Serebii said that the Pokethlon was taking over the contests, but I may have just read it wrong. But I hope/think that we'll get ribbons, otherwise why would we do them (besides they look really fun)? |
I am certain I read about accessories.
Although the contests are repetitive, they are still a huge part of the Anime and I dont think they would abandon such a large part. |
Definitely Pokethlon, I didn't mind contests in Gen III, but they became awful for me in D/P/Pt.
|
I didnt like the dress up aspect ;-;
I enjoyed the dance though :) |
I cannot like an event based on what was said in the previews and there could be more to the Pokethlon than meets the eyes. Though the Pokethlon does sounds interesting I am not going to prejudge it based on what I saw in a preview. I am going to wait until I can actually experience it and then say whether I like or dislike them over constests.

It's not set up like the contests though. They're just like mini games to play for fun. You select two categories, and you get a game. Ex. Speed, Power = mini game that requires both of those. |
We'll find out whats happening in 21 days then right?
Its just a waiting game now! |
I would like to have both.
I like doing contests when I'm bored. Yet doing something like the Pokethon. That just seems awesome. So I'm pretty much neutral. |
It depends where.
In Hoenn = Contests are really fun since you can do chain moves more hearts, But Sinnoh = I don't really like how they didn't include chain moves... But I like the other 2 catagories. But I guess the Pokelthon will be a new experience :) |
Personally, I'm more interested in the Pokeathlon simply because it's something different.
|
The Pokethlon wins hands down for me. Somehow I can't help but love the idea of a sumo wrestling Rattata. XD
|
Well to be honest, I'm dubious about the Pokéthlon. I really like contests (albeit not so much the Gen IV ones) but if they manage to pull this off well it could be quite good. But for the moment I think I prefer contests (Gen III>Gen IV).
Of course it could be (hopefully) both will be included, I mean they haven't shown us much, if any of Kanto yet, so if the contest hall(s) isn't in Johto it could be there. |
I like the new concept of the pokethlon as it is different and I don't really like contests, to hard to progress in ranks (refers to r/s/e), and which made me not want to play them in D/P/PT. ANyway the idea of pokemon in contest with each other sounds interesting.
|
The concept of a sumo wrestling Ratatta also amuses me :P
|
I never liked Contests. Ever. I am still indecisive about these, so I am unsure. Hopefully, they well win me over.
|
I always like the contest and was sad that in emerald they put the whole contest in one place .:( I am not sure whether the Pokéthlon is that cool but I'll see.
|
Yeah I prefered travelling to the contests.
|
pokethlon is awesome and has more thrills from what i've seen and read while contests i as for me based in dppt is good if your bored in going circles in the region.
|
I would love Pokéthlon more than contests easily, if they were wi-fi compatible (I don't believe contests are).
Actually, I already like it more in some ways, due to the use of the new overworld sprites (so awesome!). |
