For quite a few generations running now, we've been able to communicate wirelessly on the fly to hold trades, link battles, and all sorts of activities with other players — without ever requiring you to visit a Pokémon Center to do so. This has usually come in the form of a gadget or a menu option, each one different than the last, adding or removing certain features with every new gen.
The question is, which one do you like best? Which one do you feel is (or was) the most fun or intuitive to use? Are there any features you wish would return from prior games? Feel free to rank them, or even to discuss the pros and cons within each one.
As for me, I will always have a soft spot for the PSS. I still think it was a perfect use of the lower screen; it's snappy and easy to use, fun to interact with and fairly unobtrusive to keep open while you go about your business playing the game. The Poké Portal I also think has been decently good, though not terribly interesting outside of the Union Circle and I personally find it can be a bit slow at times.
(But just speaking from an aesthetic standpoint, the C-Gear screen was beautiful in BW1 and honestly has no competition.)
