Balance Changes

	I require more information.
	This page is incomplete and will not have all the information you may be looking for. If anything is unclear, please contact Ragnarok Raven for assistance.

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.
