** Another thing plaguing online battles in previous generations (and even for a part of Gen VI) was people using illegal Pokemon (such as Huge Power Slaking, unreleased Pokemon, etc). With the 1.3 update, however, this issue is gone, as the online battle system has a significantly more improved hack system.

*** Chesnaught, Chespin's final evolution, is Grass/Fighting. Sure, it has a crippling weakness to Flying, but this is the first time since ''VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl'' that all three starter Pokémon's final evolutionary stages are dual-typed -- and their second types form another type circle! It has a badass-looking design too. It shares its type combination with Breloom and Virizion.

** That's not all! Like Mewtwo, Charizard has ANOTHER Mega Evolution. It's only on the X version, and has an awesome black-and-blue color scheme complete with bright blue flames. The best part? It has Fire/''[[InstantAwesomeJustAddDragons Dragon]]'' as its typing which not only gives it '''[[OlympusMons Reshiram's typing]]''' [[note]]and Zekrom's palette[[/note]] but also turns its [[QuadDamage 4x Rock weakness]] into a 2x one.

*** Not only that, but you can also win essentially free, random Pokeballs, ''including a Master Ball'' via the Mine Cart minigame, for 20 (1 Pokeball per game), 100 (5 Pokeballs, except Master Balls where you only get 1), or 200 (10 Pokeballs, except Master Balls of which you get 1) [=PokeMiles=] each. Means you can get things like Net, Dive, and Quick balls for basically free.

** The Clefable line and Granbull line are now pure/monotype Fairy-types, because how odd (and disappointing) would it sound if they didn't get changed to Fairy-types despite Pokémon like Marill and Jigglypuff being part Fairy-types (with Clefairy having "fairy" in its name, and Snubbull/Granbull being identified as the "Fairy Pokémon" species in the National Pokédex)?

*** Unfortunately, the only place you can get it is at the [[TheComputerIsACheatingBastard Battle Maison]], and it costs 200 Battle Points, so it might just be easier to put a bit more effort into making sure your Pokemon has the ability you want from the get go.

** After Generation V's controversial changes to the experience system, which made leveling up easier for low level Pokémon but harder for high level Pokémon, these games return to the old system with a twist: experience is no longer divided between Pokémon, meaning every Pokémon that participates in battle now gets full experience.
