Triple Battles! Discussion Thread
So most of you have experienced it, or perhaps you've heard and seen screenshots of it; it's triple battles!
Triple battles are a big role in battling throughout gameplay and include two parts; obviously the three vs. three and Rotational Battles. It's the new battle style next to double battles; both strategically and for in-game play. The Targets☆ The pokémon you target all depends on the position you are in throughout the battle. Rotational Battles☆ Rotational Battles are put out just like Triple Battles, but deal with the stage of rotating. Discuss! |
Seems exciting. I'd love to try it.
One day there may be whole team battles. That would be a toughie. |
I've done both the rotational battles and triple battles, both great fun though :3!
|
I was very much confused at first, but after experiencing multiple battles as such, I got the 'hang of it'. This was a nice touch by Nintendo.
|
Still trying to get the hang of Triple Battles. :/
I'm still a bit confused, especially when it comes to Rotation, as I don't know how to "rotate" my Pokemon that are out. |
I haven't done any triple/rotation battles yet (because I don't have B/W), but I do have an idea on how triple battles work now. I was confused when triple battles were first introduced, but now I found that they work in a similar way to double battles.
|
I've only done the Rotational Battles, and they're pretty fun. I'm not sure I can see myself actively trying to play in that type of match, but once in a while they can be fun. I'm looking forward to trying the Triple Battles.
|
It looks weird but fun. I dont think it will be my kind of battling but I am excited to try it out.
|
Looks like a pain in the butt at first glance, but it's pretty different and game changing, and I like that. :)
|
Looks like fun! ...Just dunno where the first one is in the game; D: anyone know?

Anyway, I've only played triple battles (I have White), and I really like them so far. I'm glad there's more strategy incorporated into them than double battles. I really wish there were even more, they're a great break from single battles. |

It does look confusing at first, but I'll get the hang of it. Was intimidated with double battles when I first played Sapphire, so this shouldn't be too different. XD |
Was confusing at first but then I read over it a few times. I get it now, can't wait to actually battle in one.
|
I tried one, got it within a few minutes. It's similar to double battles so it wasn't hard.I kind of enjoyed it too.
|
The first time I read the words "triple battle" on Serebii's news update, my jaw dropped. That just sounds so hectic, and from all the screenshots the screen is immensely crowded up by names, HP bars, and Pokemon. I like the way rotational battles look way more since the screen doesn't look like a car wreck anymore. The worst part is if you weren't patient and got the Japanese version of B&W you would be majorlyyyy confused in a triple battle ; especially if you kept all the original names. |
Wait, since when was there triple battles? Oh my goshes, I have been away from B/W News Blogs and such too long. =D Sounds pretty cool so far.
|
A triple battle would be interesting, and I'd like to try it with a pokemon with lightning rod and one with storm drain to see if they draw attacks even across the battle (Such as if a pokemon on the far right uses an electric attack if it draws it to a pokemon with lightning rod to the far left). But otherwise it'll make things interesting with normal area-hitting moves like earthquake or Surf.
|
Finally tried a Rotational Battle. Great fun, but I prefer the chaotic triple battles. Good thing I got White. :]

When I first heard about triple battles being taken place, I was a bit curious of how it all would work out. After reading the information and hearing other experiences, I think it's a really cool feature and well brought out; I can't wait to experience it for myself. Rotational battles and targeting Pokémon doesn't look like a hard process as I thought it would turn out to be. Although I can't say much about it as I haven't played the game yet and won't until the English release next year, I've watched a couple of walkthroughs with some showing the feature and I'm pretty eager to see how it goes for me as well.
|
...I think I originally skim read the first post. XD; But wow, both triple and rotational battles sound awesome by the explanation in the first post. When the games come out here, I don't think I'll be swapping Pokemon often, but when those battles do occur, I'll need to be ready for anything, given the unpredictable nature of these battles.
|
It's an interesting concept but leave it to the players to find a way to completely ruin it competitively with imbalances.
