Info
There are over 70 new Gen 4, 5, and 6 Pokemon in the game (and maybe more on the way). There is a new rival as well as all-new Gym Leaders and Elite 4. Of course, there are also new encounters, new maps, new sprites, trades, gift Pokemon, events, trainers, funny text, etc. This is meant to be a new, fun, yet moderately challenging experience.
List of Features

- Scrafty now has -15 in Defense and Special Defense but +35 in Special Attack
- Pangoro now has +5 to Special Attack
- Trevenant now has +10 to Special Attack
- There aren't many changes to types either.

- Furthermore, all Pokemon that evolve via stone will learn moves at the same (or a similar) pace to its pre-evolved form, so there's no real penalty for using an evolutionary stone early. Like, some Pokemon won't learn all the moves that their pre-evolved forms can, but they might still learn the important/good moves at a similar pace. In almost all cases, it's best to evolve Pokemon as soon as possible.
