    I think back to the old saying of "Two's Company, Three's a Crowd". I personally think that it's a horrible idea. So long as there isn't a bunch of 3 on 3 battles, I'll be OK with it. But I really don't think it's a good idea.

    They should have left it with 2 on 2. 3 on 3 is like, half of your team, where's the fun in that?

    It's a bad feature, that i'm gonna try to avoid in the game, but im sure there will be mandatory 3 on 3 battles.

    A mixed reaction.

    Upon hearing about it:

    "OMFG!!!! Triple battles?!!! That's insane!!!............................................................................................oh wait, won't that mean a more crowded screen and less exp per pokemon? Neva mind! D: "

    I can't wait to see it in action :D.

    Update: I'd like to apologize, I locked this thinking it'd be fine in the general update thread, but let's be honest, this alone can offer so much to talk about. I'm not perfect, so I'm gonna reverse this call and leave this open, it's a big deal. Have fun.

    This would make competitive battling a mess but it should be fun in game.

    Some of you people need to play more RPGs. There are games where you have to control 4 characters at once, and you have more then 4 moves to choose from! And that was for the majority of the game, too!

    Of course, with the size of Pokémon sprites, I could see where 2 Wailords and Kyogre could crowd the screen...


    Another issue would be move reduction. Earthquake looses 25% power in double battles, and if it loses even more power in a triple battle, well, one of the best moves ever just turned worse then Dig.

    It will be alright. But i dont want it to be a major part in the story. Perhaps a battle fronteir thing or something

    im very mixed on this one, mainly because i dont have a dsi xl, and 3v3 could be a pain in the butt that way, and also having to know just about everything about anything on pokemon will also be annoying, like abilities and what happens when there are more then one and if it will attack your pokemon and who is fastest and etc and so forth and so on, i think it would be fun though becuase i probably could end up leveling my whole party at once alot faster.

    i think i will fail because im to used to red and blue, i dont know what these posion types are and steel and dark, as well as ground and rock and dragon, including bug i get confused because its hard to remember what is x2 and x4 and things get worse with STAB and trying to figure out what will be most effective, all in all i fail at pokemon now a days but i still play it because i like how it takes up my free time.
