    I ask because previously it would be normal swing was just push the stick forward, contact was left or right, and power was pull the stick back before pushing it forward.

    However now when playing RTTS and I'm normal swinging, it's only ever "Power ++" when I make solid contact. I only get "Contact ++" when pushing the stick left or right.
    Furthermore, on "get a hit with a power swing" challenge, I'll pull the stick back and hit...and it says failed.
    So what gives? If pushing forward is power, to the side is contact...is it not possible to normal swing?

    Flick I don’t know; stride is square for power and circle for contact and default is normal (or X if you picked power and contact and want to switch back). Do this anytime before the pitch; your controller will give a brief vibe and your analog swing will be what you chose.

    Flick and stride are analog, the right stick as you called it. If using analog for swinging in zone hitting you may have to press circle or square to pre load the type of swing and then flick. But I am also not certain as I use zone and buttons.
