gonna be new im pretty sure.
In PLA you could as the trainer run around as far away (to escape right after an action) or as close during the battle but the Pokemon would be stationary the whole time. This time your pokemon will move with you, but so will the opponent's which will make battles a lot more 'responsive' (RIP being able to plan between attack turns) and on the fly.
(everything else in terms of battle mechanics looks the same as we got in PLA) nvm
