Maybe part of why Battle Frontier is gone is that Gamefreak doesn't feel the need because now anybody can play a competitive game with any stranger all around the world. Back in Gen 3 you needed a Link cable to just have fun with some buds, but it'd be the same guys over and over, not as much variety.

The Battle Frontier is outdated.

It is not, but whatever. At least they could get rid off all references to it, if they dont care to bring it back.

>he thinks the Battle Frontier is comparable to multiplayer battling.

The thing that made the Frontier great was all the twists on the established formula it made.

No, it's because they deemed it as too much of an effort for just some few players.

I'm not even bullshitting you, they said that in an interview.

Its coming with Delta Emerald.

The hints are too strong.

Also Delta Emerald would justify the lack of Flygonite and Miloticnite.

The RSE music used a synthesized trumpet in a lot of tracks. You can still hear it when you fight Groudon/Kyogre if you listen closely!

Why do people feel the need to justify BF being gone? It was a lazy move on GF's part and a big fuck you to people who expected BF.

Move on. Boycott Pokemon. Spam Masuda's Twitter. But just stop talking about BF when you're not getting anywhere.

This.
It reminds me of how Infinity Ward is too lazy to put in a Volume mixer in their game, even after 10 years.
Pokemon is just going downhill, because GameFreak can justify themselves and say online battling and breeding is postgame, and people allow that. Literally just like how Call of Duty is, 3-4hours of campaign, 100 hours+ of online.

How do you explain Platinum's Battle Frontier? We had online then too.

Stop trying to rationalize obtuse design decisions.

Why not do what any competent dev would do then and re-invent it to be relevant/new again. Integrating online and changing the actual attractions themselves would make this easy as fuck.

By that logic they shouldn't have included the Frontier or the PWT in Platinum/HGSS/BW2 because you could just battle random people online as well.

Besides

Don't forget FRLG too. You can hear it faintly in some of the route tracks and even worse if that the Gym track, Gym Leader victory, Badge get, and Evolution are the same as RSE.

The middle letter is Mu, so clearly the next game will involve Mew.

At least going to the middle of the alphabet would make some sense instead of the fourth glyph.

Yeah, Delta Emerald... it is said to be released on the anniversary release date of piss yellow and crystal bones...

seriously guys, are we done now with the whining over the battle frontier ?
If you want this so badly, go on, do it yourself, maybe, you'll understand why it's not in...

do you know what is worst than battle maison ? a quickly done battle frontier... they had only one year and, what they did in this year is quite impressive, not many game company does that much...

so, yeah, they could have released it later, included a battle frontier, created new megas people care about, gym re-battle.... and what ? would it have been worth the extra wait ? would those features be more profitable for nintendo than a release just before christmas ?

seriously guys, I love those games since red but in the end of the day, it's still an industry, they want to make great games but you must ship...

tl:dr where is BF ? in the groudon / kyogre appearance cut-scenes, lati@s soaring and may's twerking idle animation...

You are absolutely correct sir.

Nowadays you can take your team to face another human being, with their own skill and imagination, and keep battling on the rated ladder until you reach the hardest difficulty that you can handle.

Why exactly would a Battle Frontier be necessary? It only existed in Gen 3 because you couldn't get high-level battles any other way.
