There are a number of stat changes, move adjustments, type interactions, and other balance changes made in Pokémon Sardonyx: Raised to Win. In many cases these are to make a given Pokémon more useful or powerful, or to balance gameplay around the Pokémon the player is given access to.
Shiny palette changes are listed here for lack of a better place to put them. New forms are not included, be they Regional Variants, Mega Evolutions, or other forms. Changes made in the official games are not listed.
