The main window of the PSS divides other players in three categories: Friends, Acquaintances, and Passersby. A Passerby will automatically become an Acquaintance if a Battle or Trade (including [[Wonder Trade]]s) is made with him/her: after trading or battling with a player already in the Acquaintances, a prompt to add them to the Friends group will appear.
The main window of the PSS divides other players into three categories: Friends, Acquaintances, and Passersby, each of which can have a maximum of 100 players. A Passerby will automatically become an Acquaintance if a Battle or Trade (including [[Wonder Trade]]s) is made with him/her. After trading or battling with an Acquaintance, a prompt to add them to the Friends group will appear.


Players in the Friends group are registered as friends in the 3DS's friend list, and vice versa. When a player is registered as a Friend, his/her Safari can be accessed (even if he/she doesn't have a copy of Pokémon X/Y).

Acquaintances may be removed by tapping the player's icon and then tapping the button in the lower-left corner of the screen; dropped Acquaintances will become Passersby. Friends may only be removed by removing the player from the 3DS's friend list.
