This amazing game also contains new feature which are Pokémon-Amie, a Nintendogs-lite mode where you can cooperate with any and all of your Pokémon by petting them, feeding them treats and playing three different mini-games with them. However, if you plan on taking on trainers around the world, Super Training might be mandatory.

Knowing and utilizing these Hidden Abilities to your advantage will be beneficial to your success. For example, the Torchic which is available as a Mystery Gift comes with the Hidden Ability ‘Speed Boost’ which raises its speed after each turn taken. It’s still six Pokémon in your party, with only four moves at a time per monster, but now Pokémon has new Hidden Abilities, which can give them a separate edge in battle. Battles also feel mostly familiar but have a new twist. It’s mostly a novelty, except for a few Pokémon that rely on the happiness affinity to level up, like Sylveon. Still, Super Training is absolutely optional and you can get through the entire game without even touching it. It almost feels like deceitful but the edge you get on Gym Leaders is certainly valuable.

They will raise your Pokémon’s base stats like Speed, Attack, and Defense after once completed.
