We get the Battle Frontier - it's not the Hoenn version, it's the Sinnoh version.

How mad are you?

That would be too stupid even for GF.
Also even contests are back from RSE instead of the shitty "upgraded" DPP version so no worries.

They're both impossible to win because the AI literally cheats.
I'm not upset, because it's artificial difficulty at its worst and I don't play that way.

Imagine online battling where you do the Battle Frontier facilities while interacting with other people.

>Battle Pike
- Rooms are branched out like spokes from final centre room
- 16 random online competitors
- You alternate between 'event rooms' and 'battle rooms' - so you battle an online opponent, enter a room where something happens, then proceed to another battle
- Continue until the final battle in the middle against the other surviving online competitor

- Battle Room: You battle an online opponent - your battle will randomly be 1vs1 or 3v3
- Event Room: A pokemon is healed, a pokemon is statused

Just remember that Battle Frontier wasn't included in Kalos. They probably think it's too much effort for the casual gamers and dropped it.

Battle Pike is luck-based and 'easy', but in terms of getting through it can be awkward and 'unfair' if you get a bad run of luck. And we all know that that's not allowed in Easy Mode pokemon games anymore.

Not mad at all. I still don't get why people constantly jack off emerald's like it's so perfect, while acting like Platinum's is beyond shit.

It has the basics from emerald, and the only ones it didn't have I didn't miss, except the pike? (Forget what it's called).

Otherwise all frontiers so far are shit because it's strictly 3v3 singles.

but isn't that the dumbest thing they could do? I believe we were all kids the time we played emerald and even though most of us probably raged a lot almost everyone wants it back today. It's because it left an impression behind. I believe if they continue to casualize the game like they currently do many will drop this shit soon. Also the kids from today won't stay even nearly as long as we did.

Oh I totally agree with you - Battle Frontier (and the Hoenn facilities) is one of my favourite parts of the game.

I just worry that they'll pander to the attention-poor younger generation and create a casual gaming experience that doesn't include things like the Frontier (an area that requires you to spend a little extra time on strategy and perseverance)
