    As early as Generation Three, Game Freak has implemented different ways to battle trainers, with the introduction of double battles. Since then, we've seen triple, rotation, inverse battles etc, so my question is what is your favourite way to battle in Pokemon, do you prefer simplicity or complexity?
     
    I don't reallllly like any of them haha. Rotation Battles are a fun concept but they just take sooo long. Does the game think I have patience or something? Double battles are pretty okay imo, triple battles are just awful.

    Sky Battles had potential but.... eh. Not my cup of tea.

    I've only done like one Sky Battle, wow. Don't even remember where you do them. Do you think they could be improved in any way?

    I should probably re-word myself:

    Sky Battles were decent. The one Sky Battle I did in XY, I really liked it! My biggest concern is that... Sky Battles, much like every other niche battle format Game Freak introduces with the exception of maybe Triples, doesn't really get much exposure in-game. It's like... why bother creating the format if you're not going to do much with it, y'know? You meet probably one or two Trainers that you battle via Sky Battle and that's it.

    I'd much rather people grow more accustomed to Sky Battles via important battles like Gym Leaders, Elite Four etc. Imagine having one of those battle be held in the sky; that would really shake up the monotony of Pokemon battles in a good way!

    Oh, I agree! Sky and Inverse battles both felt like last minute additions to the Gen 6 games, it seems like they just crammed a few into random spots and then didn't bother to expand upon the concept at all. Seeing a Sky Battle against a Gym Leader/Elite Four/Rival, or maybe an evil team that uses Flying-types as their primary Pokémon type, would be really cool. Maybe Gen 8!
     
    Doubles are my favourite, there just aren't that many in the main games which is a shame. I guess that's why I reeeally enjoyed Colosseum and XD which are basically all double battles.
     
    It'S been a long time since I haven't play a double battle but those are my favorite. I really enjoyed triple battles too.
     
    Yeah the amount of Double Battles definitely seem to have dropped of late, it's a shame cause they're my favourite too. That double battle in Emerald before Rustboro City on the bridge is probably my favourite and I don't know why, but I always remember it haha.
