They had a chance to make Winona's gym sky-battle only and blew it. You had one job, Gamefreak.

I would have liked a battle facility about sky battles, wish they weren't so shitty though.

Its actually hard to deal with since you have to be really good at predicting people. Makes the game more fun than standard sweepers VS walls

I bet you're the kind of fag who is glad that the palace won't come back and pokemon will never battle on their own based on their nature too.
>there will never be a water based equivalent for this where you're diving with your pokemon and use only fish/water types
It could be so interesting..

Anon, you need to learn to have fun.
You know, sky battles and that palace thing might have been gimmicky, but so was having pokemon walk behind you, or the pokewalkers, secret bases, and the dex nav is a gimmick too.
Pokemon is all about gimmicks. Shiny pokemon and even HM moves are a gimmick even.

where there any sort of mechanic changes in sky battles other than they just had to be a pokemon that could fly or levitate?

Also

Why no dive battles?

I found them refreshing and fun instead. I was very sad that there was no way to do sky battles in the end game.

they're idiots.

should have made "water battles" a thing instead.
shit that can't swim is not allowed.

and even harsher:
underwater battles.
only fully aquatic pokemon allowed.

>fish tier introduced

Why does GF always do things so half-heartedly?
When double battles were introduced in R/S, only a handful of trainers and one gym made use of it.
How many rotation/triple battles did B/W have?

Why not develop a mechanic, polish it and actually use it?

Chances are many were last-minute additions. It's clear that they had the idea for sky battles AFTER the models for all 791 Pokemon were programmed, as Flying-types like Hawlucha and Farfetch'd can't participate since GF couldn't be assed to give them flying models.

The flying type distribution was almost entirely weak to flying so you'd have to make a team just to trump her....

I like the idea. Too bad babbie mode is standard

I hope you are wrong for the sake of Xatu's model. Theres only one reason its so bad, and its sky battles. If you are right, then gamefreak actually think it looks good. Same applies to skarmory, tropius, and many other flying models

It would have been neat if they allowed gym leader rematches and the rematch with her was a sky battle. Not for the first encounter though.
