Triples is terrible imo.

I originated in Doubles and VGC format. It requires more skill to predict 2 Pokémon at once and doesn't seem so reliant on team match ups.

I've been playing 6v6 OU Singles since I became a member on this website. I like it, but it relies a lot on a perfect lead and team match ups.

When skilled battlers go against each other in Singles, you just predict switches until someone gets hit hard or OHKOed. It sort of feels like a game of dodgeball, lmfao.

I mostly do singles or doubles but for practicing predictions, I go with the rotation format.

I play mainly doubles and rotation. I prefer Rotation over Singles because the battle format is ultimately Singles with a free switch-in so in most cases the battle isn't as heavily focused on 1v1. I have to keep an eye on four/three as opposed to a single Pokemon.

Doubles is by far my favorite format because I'm forced to think about the synergy between my own Pokemon while keeping an eye on how my opponent builds their own synergy.

I'm not a fan of Singles because there's too much emphasis on checks and counters.

I prefer Singles or Rotation, rotation more because I like correctly guessing which side my opponent will switch to.

I really like Singles, but I also like to use my Water-type Pokemon Strategies in Doubles and Triples as well.

I don't like triples, usually play singles, and would like to try doubles.

well as it seems none here (except me) like triples :( thats a pity! i personally think that triple has so much more strategy than doubles or singles and the fact that you can even change the position of your pokemon in battle is crazy!!!

Triples aren't usually popular compared to Singles or Doubles. To my stand point, triples provide great practice for predicting. Unlike Doubles where you have to focus on two pokemon, you have three pokemon that you have no clue on what they are going to or who they are going to attack. Triples and Rotation, imo, are the best way to come up with strategies and help your prediction skills.

I would prefer the game to be in doubles in makes you think about how you can pair up two Pokémon to achieve a great effect. I think that singles are a bit easy because you can predict when someone is going to switch based on simple factors. Triple is harder because you can switch which the order of your Pokémon, and your Pokémon are limited to certain Pokémon they can attack.
