No, not really.
Lets say you fight against a trainer who has 6 pokemon. In a regular battle, assuming you kill each of his people with one shot, and you have all the animations turned off:
1-He throws out pokemon
2-You throw out pokemon
3-You select attack
4-They take damage
5-"Do you wish to switch pokemon?"
6-He throws out new pokemon
7-You select attack
8-They take damage
9-"Do you wish to switch pokemon?"
10-He throws out new pokemon
11-You select attack
12-They take damage
13-"Do you wish to switch pokemon?"
14-He throws out new pokemon
15-You select attack
16-They take damage
17-"Do you wish to switch pokemon?"
18-He throws out new pokemon
19-You select attack
20-They take damage
21-"Do you wish to switch pokemon?"
22-He throws out new pokemon
23-You select attack
24-They take damage
25-Win
In a triple battle:
1-You throw out three pokemon
2-He throws out three pokemon
3-You select attack
4-You select attack
5-You select attack
6-They take damage
7-They take damage
8-They take damage (less depending on if you use any attacks that hurt more than one)
9-"Do you wish to change any pokemon?"
10-He throws out three pokemon
11-You select attack
12-You select attack
13-You select attack
14-They take damage
15-They take damage
16-They take damage
17-Win
Am I forgetting anything?

Well, looks like Serebii got their hands the some leaked pics of the new 5th gen Pokemon, along with their Japanese names.

Looks like they have all of the new ones listed there, or at least most of them. (156!) Some of them seem very weird as far as their designs go, but obviously it's hard to tell just based on the pictures and types alone. Speaking of which, looks like there will be a lot of interesting new type combinations from what I saw.
One thing I want to know is this:
Some of my favorites at this point include:
Also, anyone notice the potential Tauros evolution about 3/4 of the way down the list?
What is the fascination with a Fire/Fighting starter? That's 3 generations in a row now! Still won't make me change my mind about starting off with the fire starter again, since it's not only a tradition of mine but the fire pig makes me think of Ganon at the end, but I've got to admit the final evolution of the grass starter is pretty slick too. Not sure how the water one goes from form two to form three, since the other two seem pretty obvious.
Some of my favorites at this point include:
The swan, the deer, the zebra, the polar bear, the electric spider, and maybe even the croc. A few others stand out from the rest but those six specifically seem pretty cool to me.
Also, anyone notice the potential Tauros evolution about 3/4 of the way down the list?
red chamber dream
my favorites atm are pururiru and its evo burunkeru. ghost/water ftw ... shame its stats sucks though.
seems like it has to be a tauros evo. sucks. ;(
also what's up with "victini" at 494? first time we've seen a non-starter listed first in a new gen's pokedex.
