PSS Features

---------------------------------------------------------
Like all games since Pokémon Gold & Silver, you get given a
device which allows for you to access a variety of features both
in-game and outside it. In Pokémon X & Y, these features are
implemented within the Player Search System and stay on the
bottom screen during your play. This page is to detail all the
features of the PSS
Battle: The first feature you'll find in the PSS allows for you
to quite simply battle with someone locally or over the Internet
without the need to go to the Pokémon Centres across Kalos.
Current details for this battle system, such as rulesets, are
not currently known.
- Battle Spot: The Battle Spot works in a similar manner to the
Random Matchup feature of Pokémon Black & White. Here, you'll be
able to battle with random people within two modes: Free Battles
and Ranked Battles. Ranked Battles allow for you to accumulate a
score that is then posted to your profile on the Pokémon Global
Link.
A new feature added to this, is the inclusion of penalties for
disconnecting. If you disconnect now from battle, you will have
a loss recorded.
Trade: The second feature runs akin to the previous one, and
allows for you to trade with someone locally or over the
Internet, again without the need to go to the Pokémon Centres
across Kalos. It is not known if there are any restrictions on
this such as preventing trade of Pokémon knowing Hidden Moves.
- Wonder Trade: The Wonder Trade feature works similar to the
Battle Spot in that you will be connected to a random trainer
around the world. However, with this trade, while you can select
whichever Pokémon you wish, you will not know what Pokémon you
receive in the trade until the trade is in progress.
- GTS: The PSS also gives you access to the Global Trade Station
without the need to go to the Pokémon Center. Like before, you
can put in any Pokémon of yours for trade with another Pokémon.
However, unlike the past generations, in Pokémon X & Y, you can
search for Pokémon you have not seen in your Pokédex yet,
allowing for full Global Trading
Shout Out: The Shout Out feature allows for you to send messages
out to everyone on your friend list, and who you're connected to
locally. Unlike previous games, the messages you can send are
entirely created by you, utilising the touchscreen as a
keyboard.
Holy Caster: The Holo Caster has several interconnected
features. First, it will be used to provide various Pokémon
related news from the Pokémon Global Link. Second, you'll be
able to use the Holo Caster to communicate with various
characters within the Kalos region, in a similar manner to the
Xtransceiver in Pokémon Black 2 & White 2.
O-Powers: O-Powers are a new feature that work similarly to Pass
Powers, but also have a more ranged effect. Several O-Powers
will allow for you to increase stats within battle, while others
will help you gain more experience or make your captures more
likely. Like in Pokémon Black & White, you have the ability to
share your O-Powers with your friends, but this can now be done
over the internet.
Friends: Using the PSS, you'll have full access to your entire
friend list, being able to see who is online and what they are
doing in real-time. You will also see details of all local
players and be able to challenge them at will
