    Now, because all I do lately on X is breeding eggs, I'm using my bike all the time. But I really like the rollerskates as well. It's fast, easy to use, and you can do some epic tricks with them :D I just don't like how they kind of slow down after a while...

    Bike because you don't have to keep speeding back up.

    Depends on what I'm doing at the time. I usually use the skates though, one less button to press, they seem to control better and they are just fun!

    For the entire plot I used the skates. They're fun and they were fast enough for me (heck I was ecstatic when I found out I could just run right away). Plus their lower camera angle made seeing things and enjoying the environment easier. On the bike I can't see the numbers to the gates leading out of Lumiose and it's just annoying.

    Right now I'm using the bike for breeding tho and I feel like I'm taking the faster speed for granted now so I dunno if I'll switch back. Plus, now that I've seen all there is to see I'm speeding through everything anyways.

    I usually use a bike because I'm more used to it than the roller skates. I rarely use them.

    I prefer the bike because I find that it controls smoother. Also I feel like it turns sharper and stops faster than the skates.

    Kind of depends, but I generally go for the roller skates. I like to keep the town map registered for the Y button, so I actually get into my bag for the bike, so it's a lot faster to just switch controls to use the skates.

    I use the bike because of its speed. The skates are cool as well, but they aren't fast enough for me in most situations.

    I prefer the bike since its faster. The skates were a cool features for sure though. I liked how they tried implementing new ways to get around.

    When playing through the game's main story I only ever used the Roller Skates but now I only ever use the bike as its faster and I hatch a lot of eggs.
