    If we still get the famous choice from Rydel Rydel Rydel Rydel Rydel Rydel, which bike will you be picking, and why?

    Mach, since I like how fast it is. I'll go back to get the Achro bike later, post game probably.

    Acro, because Mach is too fast for me, and Acro is the only bike in Pokémon franchise that can jump.
    But I will switch to Mach when I reach Sky Pillar. (If those cracked floors are still exist...)

    Damnit Ben, I wanted to make a Rydel joke!

    Anyway, I'll be taking the Acro bike I guess. Both have a different feature that allows you to reach exclusive areas, but since you can switch bikes at any moment anyway, that doesn't really matter. I just like the Acro bike a bit more, because you can make those funny hops with it! I tried it in real life, but it was nowhere as succesful as in-game :D

    Mach bike for sure, traveling is a lot faster with that thing. I'll get the acro bike in postgame to collect everything that I missed though.

    Hm, I used to go with the Mach Bike in R/S/E but looking back on it now the thing was reaaally fast.. unless I was zooming back and forth to hatch eggs. :P So I'd probably go with Acro this time around for a more comfortable method of transportation that won't make me crash into things constantly, hehe.

    Mach bike. I love how fast it was and the cycling road recorded how fast I got through it with the mach bike

    Well you need both to get through the game right? As for preferences though, the Mach bike for it's speed is the one I usually go with first.

    I'll probably go with Acro on both games, go through Cycling Road on it, then go back and switch to Mach, then race down Cycling Road (if that contest thingy still exists), then go back to Acro again and stay with it, switching to Mach only when necessary. Love performing tricks on the bike, and they look really cool in 3D <3

    Oh, and I'll definitely be using the Mach Bike for breeding; it'll be way more convenient XD

    I'm probably going for Mach Bike. It's been a while since I've played RS so I've forgotten which bike I enjoyed using but I believe Mach Bike has always been the fastest so I'll defiantly go with that one.

    I pick the Mach Bike just for the sheer speed of it and sky pillar. Acro bike is meh imo.

    I really like both the Mach and Acro bikes, but I use the Mach bike a bit more! I love the tricks you can do on the Acro bike, but I prefer speed to technical tricks when it comes to bikes.

    Oh my goodness, that Rydel text always drove me crazy when I spoke to that guy, mistaking him for a trainer. xD

    Back in the old days of Sapphire, I picked the Acro Bike thinking it was so much more exciting, but over time the charm wore off, and I just ended up using the Mach Bike so I could get around as fast as possible haha.

    Acro! Gotta bounce all over the place.

    Plus I'll still be using X/Y to breed so I won't need the Mach Bike other than to get to areas specific to it.

    I prefer the Acro Bike as the Mach Bike is too fast and hard to control for me. I prefer the higher stability and the ease of turning corners without constantly bumping into things. Also, bunny hops are cool. I like the fact that the Acro Bike is the only bike in the whole Pokémon franchise that can do tricks. I only switch to the Mach Bike when needed, such as at the Sky Pillar.

    The Acro Bike is fun and all but I think I'll go with Mach Bike this time around. If I'm planning on hatching any eggs or get through the Sky Pillar then I gotta go fast

    Besides, it can make the ash collecting process next to Fallarbor Town a lot faster.

    I chose the A(h)cro(matic) bike for some playthroughs, and Mach for others back in the day, but I think for my first playthrough of these games, I'll be going with the Mach Bike just because of how good all around it is.
