The Battle Subway!
So, Black and White has the Battle Subway this generation.
Serving like the Battle Frontier of this Gen, you can travel on many different Subways, from Wi-fi to regular single battles. Like the Battle Frontier, you battle in the subway you choose, as long as possible, until you lose. However, each round is 7 battles, and each round, the trainers get stronger and stronger.Until they just use Ubers You fight seven trainers, you stop. Then, you can go back to Nimbasa City, or continue your challenge. For each round you win, you get 3BP, and with that BP, you can get many items like Vitamins, TMs, Power items, and more. So what do you think of the Battle Subway this Gen? What is your favorite Subway? Would you have preferred the Battle Frontier rather than this? Discuss~ |
Yes, I would REALLY have preferred the Battle Frontier. I find it much more interesting. Just non-stop battles that don't even give you any exp. isn't very interesting for me...ah well. I played the Multi Train just to see the male protagonist. ^^ (I dislike his official name, but...:/)
|
I actually haven't tried it yet. I'll look it up on serebii then make a team. Any suggestions.
|
I am currently in the battle sub doing doubles in the Red Line Sub. I want to save 48 bp to buy a Scope Lens to use when i battle the E4 ^.^
|
I haven't even tried it yet I've been doing Random Match-up Triple battles for the past few days. I will probably do it eventually to get some BP for the TMs.
|
It's just as fun as the Battle Frontier was, for me at least. The AI is still just as cheap as it was before too. I **** you not, almost every time an opponent used, for example, Dark Pulse or Rock Slide... I flinched. So frustrating, because it doesn't just happen once, but maybe two or three times! Ridiculous I say.

I hate them. They just spam a move or use OHKO moves.

I've only tried the subway once... did a series of double battles, smashed the first six but the seventh one had a Blitzle and a Herdier that liked to do an infuriating mix of Thunder Wave and Take Down. FFFFFFFFFFFF
(needless to say I lost the 7th battle) |
I like the Battle Subway... somewhat. It's a Battle Tower clone, but more enjoyable than the Battle Tower since battles run faster and animate better, and the NPCs seem to be more challenging. I do miss the Frontier a lot, though; I would've even taken Platinum's Frontier again.
|
The battle subway Is really fun but its sometimes it gets annoying trying to get to the battle subway boss.
|
Urrghh why only three bp per 7 defeats >.> How annoying.... Anyway I lost on my 16th consecutive battle against a beastly Bouffalant and Crustle. Crustle had a Quick Claw and attacked first, killing my Archeops in one hit with... ROCK WRECKER ;_; and they ended up owning my team with these powerhouse moves, and all my moves missed.
|
I love it. It's very fast and you actually earn 3 Points of one round. ^^ I also find it great that your Pokemon automatically go to Lv. 50 so you don't have to train them.
My favourite train is Double Train, it's growing on me since I chose it as my first course. I'm experimenting with teams right now. |

I miss the battle factory..Subways are good but i miss the excitement factory provided
|
I have to say I liked the battle frontier better. All these npc's with flinching and one-hit-ko attacks hitting all the time.....I just can't take it. Although sludge wave or whatever is a tm that I really want....
|
I think it's a good way to test your own teams, and to get familiar with Pokemon you use.
Though I think 7 battles each round is a bit much....I would prefer if it is like 5 battles or something |
I prefer the Battle Subway to the Battle Tower as it is more unique than just a tower. :L Also, I love how they remixed the Battle Tower music. :D Nostalgia moment~ :3
On the other hand, I prefer the Battle Frontier, simply because there is more variety. I just hope if there is a third game that they put in a Battle Frontier-type place. |
So what do you think of the Battle Subway this Gen?
I like the battle subway! It is really really cool. What is your favorite Subway? I like it when you can team up with Hilbert and Hilda. It is really fun to do. Would you have preferred the Battle Frontier rather than this? No I like the subway, it is just as fun. |

i like the battle subway. the prizes are awesome. i mainly do singles, they're simpler and i like one on one better. the battle frontier was ok for me too. it satisfies my battling need so i'm happy.
|
The Subway is OK. I loved the frontier a heck of a lot more. I have made a 20 win streak on every train, making it to the last Pokemon on the opponents team before losing. I have a cure that a will Never face the Subway masters
|
So what do you think of the Battle Subway this Gen?: It was nothing special, except that it feels somehow thrilling to battle in a moving vehicle.
What is your favorite Subway?: For now, Singles. Would you have preferred the Battle Frontier rather than this?: I still like the Battle Frontier better. I was surprised to learn that I can do the Battle Subway pre-National Dex. I entered Dewott, Sawk and Whirlipede the first time I challenged it, but I decided to hold off the streak until my Pokemon evolved. |
