7th Gen Battle Style

In SM and USUM, you could learn new ways of throwing Poké Balls, called Battle Styles. Battle Style changes how your character throws a Poké Ball and poses during battles. For example, the "Smug Style" mirrors Gladion's confident demeanor, while the "Left-Handed Style" reflects Ilima's unique throw. Did you change your Battle Style in your playthrougth? Which one is your favourite?

I personally completely missed this mechanic in my first playthrougth of SM, but had a lot of fun with it in USUM. I used Elegant style for most of the game, but then changed to Nihilist style. Nowadays, I usually just use Elegant and sometimes Smug styles, during my playthrougths.
 
This was a small little thing I liked a lot in the Alola games. Mostly used Smug in Sun/Moon and Nihilist in USUM. It was nice to see it return in SV, though it was annoying how you had to wait until the DLC to unlock it, and then you have to spend BP every single time you want to change your style. Was hoping for more of a selection in SV too =(
