You can find a new batch of Pokemon X/Y details below. The latest information was translated from a Japanese magazine by the folks over at Bulbagarden.

– As has been mentioned Pokemon gain experience even when the opposing wild Pokémon is caught
– A caught Pokémon gives the same experience points as a defeated one
– Sky Battles are limited to Flying-type Pokemon and those with the Levitate ability; some moves can’t be used
– There is an adjustment to the inheritance system of breeding
– Ghost-type Pokemon can freely escape from battle without being influenced by Shadow Tag
– The item Exp. Share will revert to Exp. All as in Generation I
– This sees one Pokemon holding the item and participates in battle, but all other Pokemon in the team receive experience as well
– Participating Pokemon receives 100% experience, and non-participating Pokemon receive 50%
– When distributing new moves and abilities, priority was given to new Pokemon
– CGI style is different than Pokemon Stadium/Battle Revolution since those games were supposed to emulate “realism within fantasy”
– Handheld Pokemon games are supposed to be accessible to everyone, so battles were made “cuter”
– Selection process for Mega Evolved Pokemon is based on three points: visual looks, popularity and game balance
– Because Mega Evolved Pokemon are put in the same class of legendary Pokemon, only one Pokemon can hold a Mega Stone during battles
– The timing to Mega-Evolve is selectable.
– Some moves, with focus on special ones, have had their power and accuracy revamped
