Favorite Generation VI Game Mechanic? [Poll]

[Kharixi]

Of those special game mechanics introduced/remaining in Gen VI, any favorites?

(If you have another one, please say so in reply)

Personally, my favorites are Mega Evolution and the critical capture.

I really like soaring, it's so cool to be able to ride on Latias/os and seeing your character on them. I also like the mega evolutins/primal reversions as well, some megas are meh but I still like that mechanic. It actually reminds me of Digimon.

Moving this thread to VG since it's a bit more topical there

Things the poll is missing: Sky Battles, Dexnav, Friend Safari, Trainer Customization and Roller Skates.

My personal fave is Trainer Customization, it's so nice to finally be able to make your trainer actually look like you. Also, it makes online battling a lot more fun, as everyone looks different and it's more like you're facing actual trainers instead of the same two PC's over and over again.

Critical Capture is a close second, I loved it so much when I was completing the National Dex, mostly when catching the legendaries.

Critical Capture is a gen 5 feature iirc, and Mausda Method is from DP.

Anyway, the best feature of gen 6 is by far the DexNav. It allows you to selwctively choose which Pokon you want, chain them till yiu get incredible IV spreads, moves and abilities, and it takes away the hassle of running into Pokemon you don't want over and over. Yes the point of Pokemon is to hunt down the critters on your own, but Random Encounters in RPGs is an absolutely archaic mechanic that honestly should be something of the past. Even DQ, which is the other flagship rpg left with turn based battles, has done away with em. I really hope DexNav and its mechanics return nexr gen as the main way to hunt Pokemon, and the randim battles get thrown out the Window. Just the sneaking is only used when you activate it yourself for the rarer stuff.

It feels like DBZ to me and a NPC in XY even references it too.

I am not voting until the options get updated.

For me it is:

- Mega Evolution

- Super Secret bases

One of those two. But Super Secret Bases probably wins for me. Being able to play as a Gym Leader and have your own Gym, is something I have wanted for a long time, and ORAS Super Secret Bases is he closest thing we will get I think. Very delighted with it.
