6th Gen Quadruple Battles? and 8 Party Slots?

I liek the six pokemon system, I think that having an eight pokemon party would make the game too easy and just too much. I also think that 4 v 4 would make the game too much and would make battles too hectic. I'm against both ideals.
 
Absolutely against this.

I think 6 Pokemon is just enough to have in a party and it will probably never change. And I don't like the idea of 4 vs 4 battles cos it would go completely off balance.

Singles, Doubles, Triples and Rotations is enough battle-wise.
 
Carrying around eight Pokemon instead of the usual six would be an interesting change for them to make, but I don't think it's really necessary. Part of the strategy for team-building comes from the fact that you only have six slots to work with, and really I don't think you need any more than that; it's been good enough for the last decade and a half. There are changes for improvement, and changes for the sake of changes, and I think that would probably fall into the latter category.

Triple battles and Rotation battles are already a complete and utter mess though, why throw a fourth Pokemon into the mix and make it even more chaotic? I really hope they don't do this in any format, because it'd just be a complete and utter nuisance. I never bothered with triple or rotation battles in the fifth gen unless I was forced to - and then I grumbled about it whilst trying to get out of it as quickly as possible - and I can't see myself enjoying 4 vs 4 battles either.
 
It would make things so very confusing for everyone, I'm against this idea too.
 
Hell no to both ideas. Though having 8 pokemons in a team doesn't look soooo bad, 6 is enough. About the quadruple battles. I don't even liked triple battles, certainly I wouldn't like quadruple. Seems too much. Double is enough.
 
Quadruple battles would be crossing the line a bit, triple is fine.
