Player Search System
The Player Search System (Japanese: プレイヤーサーチシステム), or PSS for short, is an item that appears in Generation VI and is the Pokémon X and Y version of the C-Gear. It has many different functions including the GTS, Wonder Trade, O-Powers, and more.
Global Trade Station
In Generation VI the Global Trade Station can now be accessed in many more places than just Pokémon Centers in Generation V or the Global Terminal/GTS building in Generation IV. Unlike in previous generations, the player can now ask for Pokémon that have not yet been registered in the player's Pokédex.
Wonder Trade
Wonder Trade allows players to trade Pokémon for another one without even knowing what he or she is going to get. This means that using Wonder Trade is a risk as the player could get a very rare or a very common Pokémon. Eggs cannot be traded in wonder trade.
O-Powers
O-Powers are very similar to Pass Powers, as they give power-ups, increase/decrease chances of things happening, and can be shared with other players. In addition, if one is used nearby by another player, the player can use it as well.
Shout Outs
Shout Outs are messages sent to everyone connected to the player's game, whether they are the player's friends or someone who happened to be connected to the internet at the same time as the player.
Battle Spot
The Battle Spot is a feature that allows players to use the same functions that the GBU's Random Matchup provides in the Generation V games. It allows players to compete in Free and Rating mode battles just as the GBU does.
Holo Caster
The Holo Caster is a Generation VI extension of the Xtransceiver that consists on contact via holograms. Unlike its predecessor, not only it is possible to contact NPCs, it can broadcast news as well.
