I don't understand. Why is this a bad thing?

well, it'll create a whacky metagame (as in, a new one), and when it's used...it just seems to me battles will be over the top.

[Thirdkoopa]

Cool I'm right and everyone else isn't.

Hmm. I thought 2 on 2 was pretty interesting, so in my opinion 3v3 might make people rethink their strategies.
Or, y'know, piss everyone off.

Ladies and Gentlemen, 90% of Pokemon player's reaction to this.

Proceed to continue complaining now.

2 on 2 brought on total type coverage - you could sent out a ground pokemon with your flying to deter targeting of it (out of fear you'll quickly retaliate). While I know the idea is wonky because any type can learn any type of move, the premise is there that some pokemon work well together. I think we'll see environmental teams pop up more...now a rain can heal three teammates at once...I just don't like it.

[Kayo]

New pokemon guys. I will work hard to get pictures and everything, so be patient.

[Macawmoses]

You're a little late, sir.

[Thirdkoopa]

I think he means to update in the main post unless you already did that.
