Another feature included within the Seventh Generation of Pokemon is the
Introduction of Battle Style Poses. This allows a player to change the image that is shown when they enter battle, as well as how they throw their Poke Balls. There are nine different Poses, each unlocked by a different method, and they can all be learned and changed by going to the Old Man in the
Malie City Out Cape.
