    Does this matters? Internet isn't very clear about this

    if what i just read is correct, it's about stats

    if you upgraded the same pokemon to the cap on the CP bar, and one is XS, and the other XL, the XL would have higher stats (by how much I have no idea)

    They should change the heights and weights to inches and pounds for the US, I'm tired of referring to my conversion charts

    i think XS might relate to how fast you attack/dodge. haven't confirmed that though.

    my 11 KG magikarp just evolved to a 8KG gyarados so i have no clue if it matters, or if the size upon evolution is random.

    CP is the only thing i've noticed that makes a different.

    Find a pokestop along the edge of a body of water in your city and then place a lure on it and farm.

    i cant believe that the one pokemon game in 20 years that they did something different and switched up the formula is also the one pokemon game in 20 years that doesn't have a tutorial and explain s---.
    it took me like 5 days to realize you had to hold down on the attack screen to do your special, and theres a bunch of other s--- like this XL/XS s--- that is just completely unexplained

    I thought it meant your pokemon would do more damage because its heavier....

    also I was confused because I evolved one of my XL pidgeys and it evolved into a XS pidgeotto -_-

    even then, many things were never really explained in game though. Like, without the internet, I never would have known what IV & EV points were
