I prefer caves to the sea in all honesty.

    What are some of your favorite types of areas to explore in the world of Pokemon? Are you a person who enjoys a good hike through a cave or do you prefer a trek through the forest or over a sea?
     
    I'll say forest, because there is some spots you don't encounter a Pokemon. I like some places like that.

    But if I have to choose between cave and sea, I prefer the caves :)
     
    I'm a big fan of forests. I don't like caves that much, and I really dislike caves that require flash. The sea is fine, thought the Tentacools/insert generic water type here get old after a while. At least at sea, you can generally fly back to a city if need be. In a cave, you have to use an escape rope first, which always feels like a waste to me, even if it isn't that expensive to get one (and even though I always keep several with me for good measure).
     
    I'm not a fan of caves but I much prefer them to the sea as well. I really like exploring areas just outside of coastal towns as long as I don't go to far into the ocean. Oh, a long, long, long, looooong stretch of blue. It makes me dizzy xD
     
    I do not like caves. {XD}

    I think my favorite area would be the forest, or just a regular ol' route. Anywhere that I can [mostly] walk in or out of the tall grass if I want, so I'm not constantly running into Pokemon or having to use repels.
     
    so weird i was just thinking this the other day!

    I think overall I like caves the least. the encounter rate always seems to be highest in these and there's no where to go to not encounter pokemon like a forest would or sometimes water.

    I like forests the best, Eterna forest was probably the coolest because it had that eerie feel to it with ghost types and the chateau located in it. but mainly i like that you can try to avoid the grassy areas or at least walk through the least amount of grass if you don't want to encounter any pokemon.
     
    I like exploring caves, it can just get frustrating when you get lost in them.
     
    Safari Zone, always; they have Pokémon that we can't find elsewhere. I also enjoy search for Pokémon in wood places every now and again, haha.
     
    This probably doesn't count as an answer but I really enjoy fishing more than anything. But of the categories it has to be the water. Water is my favorite type and seeing Clawitzer or Frillish for the first time is cool.
     
    Christ I hate caves, always have - I end up getting lost half the time, and the other half is spent running from Zubats and Geodudes.
     
    I base my preference off what typically is the most adventurous and mysterious and that would be caves. As annoying as certain Pokemon are Zubat, Geodude, Graveler, every other cave Pokemon, I find that caves also offer the most in terms of exploring and uncovering cool areas like in X for example and Terminus cave
     
    Caves for me have to be my all time favorite environment to explore. They always have a cool song and they feel like what a real adventure would be like. I like getting lost and finding my way out, plus I feel like finding items inside caves is always more rewarding than anywhere else.

    As a side note I freaking love using Rock Climb and Waterfall. Coolest and best use of hidden areas designed for those HMs to me.
     
    I've always liked forest environments because you generally encounter a wide variety of pokemon, not to mention my favorite, grass types. They're generally more interesting than regular routes layout wise, and they have tall grass so you're not constantly running into pokemon as long as you're careful.
     
    I'm kind of mixed when it comes to caves. On one hand, there's something genuinely exciting about them. There are so many paths to explore, and every unnecessary step taken is sort of a risk since you only have so many items going in and you're bound to encounter a lot of wild Pokémon (and a surprising number of trainers.) Most importantly, though, due to all of the branching paths and similar decorative set pieces, you never really know how far you actually are into a cave until you come out the other end.

    On the other hand, exploring caves can be really annoying and stressful for all of the same reasons. All of the trainer battles inside caves will slowly chip away at your health and your healing items, and I'm always afraid to use an escape rope when I consider that I could be almost all the way through.



    What's worse is that almost every time I went into a cave, I ran into a trainer with Sawk, which for some reason was the one Pokémon that could completely mess up my team.
