As part of the “Pokémon Go Tour: Kalos” event, players who pay $9.99 for the event pass will get a special research task that forces them to choose between
Below we explain Whether you should choose path X or Y in the special investigation “An Exceptional Thread”as well as the steps for the investigation.
Should you choose X or Y in the ‘An Exceptional Thread’ special investigation?
Please note that in this investigation you will obtain a Xerneas or Yveltal with a special backgroundas well as a Medal with X or Y themeaccording to your choice. That being said, you can (and should, in my opinion) choose the Pokémon you like the most.

Yveltal is a very strong flying-type attacker for raids and gyms, and although Xerneas is also a strong fairy-type attacker, Yveltal outperforms him in damage per second overall. That being said, if you need a flying type attacker, you should choose Yveltal, and if need If you are a fairy type attacker, you should choose Xerneas.
If you love PvP, on the other hand, Xerneas is the best choice.since it currently occupies the number 4 position in the Master League ranking. Yveltal is also a decent pick for PvP (ranked 17th in Master League), but Xerneas is simply better. These are the facts.
