    Bike, mainly because it gets that sick theme song. Reminds me of Bakuman.

    I may be playing Devil's advocate, but I honestly preferred the roller skates over the bike. I'm a boss at controlling the skates, and have more fun using them. I also think it's more fun doing tricks on skates. I hope that they add scooters in the next game.

    I prefer the skates.

    I've never really used the bike except for Cycling Road (in past gens), some of those places that are bike-accessible only in Hoenn, or when I'm breeding. The bike is faster, so its better for breeding. Otherwise, I don't need that much speed.

    Roller Skates! They're a breath of fresh air in the movement of your character around the pokemon world! Wish the cycles also had some tricks though. Or maybe there would be some specially accessed area using only a bike, like in RSE?

    I would say both are ok; i had some difficulties while trying to skate in lumiose city but i got used to it, the bike was more easy to use in that city. with the skates you can do trick combos, with the bike you can go smoothly anywhere (and also has a nice theme music).

    I use the bike whenever I can, it's faster than the skates, easier to control and doesn't slow down when you enter grass.

    Although the skates are definitely the cooler choice with their tricks and not changing the BGM, and also because I skate irl, the bike is the way to go for me. Mainly because of the bike's consistent movement.

    The bike's speed is constant no matter the pressure applied to the analog stick, and the terrain (aside from the windy conditions on Rt. 13, but that affects both devices anyways). The bike also offers the choice of using the analog stick or the control pad, which I like to switch it up every now and then.

  • Roller Skates are fun! I like using them instead of running shoes. I use the bike more often tho. But I like them both so I won't vote :)
