Switch rows and columns as data series
When you add a chart, Pages defines the default data series for it. In most cases, if a table is square or if it’s wider than it is tall, the table rows are the default series. Otherwise, the columns are the default series. You can change whether rows or columns are the data series.
Tap the chart, then tap Edit Data.

Share the x-axis for multiple values along the y-axis for scatter and bubble charts
Sharing the x-axis means plotting a single kind of value along the x-axis, while allowing for multiple kinds of values plotted along the y-axis. By default, the x-axis values are shared among multiple sets of y-axis values in some types of charts.
Tap the chart to select it, then tap Edit Data.

About chart downsampling
If a column, bar, line, or area chart references a table with a large number of data points, the chart automatically shows a representative sample of each series to improve the performance of Pages. Downsampling doesn’t change or remove the data in your table, and only changes the visible data points in the chart.
If your chart data is being downsampled, a message appears when you tap Large Data Set in the Chart tab of the Format 
menu.
If you want to see certain data points in your chart, you need to create the chart from a smaller table or a smaller selection of data from a large table.
