It’s now been well over a few months since the launch of Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet<\/a>. While the gameplay was quite enjoyable at launch, there were admittedly some bugs and technical issues. Game Freak was quick to address some of these problems with a few updates, but it seems it’s not done just yet.<\/p>\n

On the game’s official support page, Nintendo has announced Version 1.2.0<\/strong> is scheduled to arrive at the end of February.<\/p>\n

This rather sizeable update will add some features to Pok\u00e9mon Boxes and will target a number of bugs. It’s also mentioned how “seriously” the development team is taking player feedback to help improve the experience and a footnote says the team is planning “further features and bug fixes” not yet listed.<\/p>\n

Here are the full patch notes, via the support page:<\/p>\n

Ver. 1.2.0 (Scheduled for end of February 2023)<\/h3>\n

Thank you for playing the Pok\u00e9mon series.<\/p>\n

Below are some details regarding the version 1.2.0 update planned for release in late February 2023 for the Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet<\/em> and Pok\u00e9mon Violet<\/em> games.<\/p>\n

With this update, we are planning to add features to Pok\u00e9mon Boxes and fix bugs that affect game progress, among other updates. We will continue to take your feedback very seriously and take measures to improve your gameplay experience.<\/p>\n

Feature Adjustments<\/h6>\n
    \n
  • Additional functionality will be added for Pok\u00e9mon Boxes:\n
      \n
    • From a Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s summary, players will be able to change Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s nicknames, markings, held items, and mark- or Ribbon-related titles, as well as being able to reorder moves, have Pok\u00e9mon remember moves, have Pok\u00e9mon forget moves, and use TMs.<\/li>\n
    • Players will be able to swap out held items by pressing the Y Button when in the Held Items<\/strong> view.<\/li>\n
    • Players will be able to select All Boxes<\/strong> while moving Pok\u00e9mon or items in the Party and Boxes<\/strong> view and Held Items<\/strong> view.<\/li>\n
    • When in the Battle Team<\/strong> view, Pok\u00e9mon in your Boxes that are assigned to a Battle Team will now have their icons displayed in a darker hue if those Pok\u00e9mon are members of the Battle Team that is currently being displayed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
    • The News screen will be displayed when you connect to the internet from the main menu, just as it is when connecting to the internet from the Pok\u00e9 Portal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      Bug Fixes<\/h6>\n

      Tera Raid Battles<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      • A bug that can prevent an opposing Tera Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s HP gauge from properly reflecting damage done by certain moves (such as Play Rough) or certain status conditions may occur in Tera Raid Battles, resulting in the Tera Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s HP gauge fluctuating in an unusual manner. This will be fixed.<\/li>\n
      • A bug that causes all Pok\u00e9mon on your side to faint at once despite their HP gauges indicating that they still have HP may occur in black crystal Tera Raid Battles against Pok\u00e9mon with the Mightiest Mark. This will be fixed.<\/li>\n
      • A bug that can temporarily prevent a player from entering any input into the game may occur if a Tera Pok\u00e9mon takes certain actions while the player is choosing the target of their move. This will be fixed.<\/li>\n
      • A bug that causes a communication error may occur when someone connecting to a Tera Raid Battle sees a different Pok\u00e9mon displayed on their screen than what the host sees. This will be fixed.<\/li>\n
      • A bug may occur that causes players joining a Tera Raid Battle from the Tera Raid Battles search screen to be brought to a Tera Raid Battle against a Pok\u00e9mon different from the one they saw displayed. This will be fixed.<\/li>\n
      • A bug that causes Tera Raid Battle crystals to not appear for a set amount of time may occur under certain circumstances. This will be fixed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Battles<\/strong><\/p>\n

          \n
        • Type matchups against Pok\u00e9mon that have fainted will no longer appear when selecting a move or target during Double Battles.<\/li>\n
        • A Zoroark that has Terastallized and is disguised as another Pok\u00e9mon via its Illusion Ability can be identified as a Zoroark by using the Check Target option. This is a bug and will be fixed.<\/li>\n
        • When a Zoroark has Terastallized and is disguised as another Pok\u00e9mon via its Illusion Ability, the type matchups of moves are displayed based on the type of the Pok\u00e9mon that Zoroark is disguised as, rather than Zoroark\u2019s Tera Type. This is a bug and will be fixed.<\/li>\n
        • The stats of a Dondozo with a Tatsugiri in its mouth will increase when Dondozo uses Order Up, even when the move should have been negated (for example, by an opponent using Protect). This is a bug and will be fixed.<\/li>\n
        • If a Pok\u00e9mon Terastallizes after using Destiny Bond and then faints, the effects of Destiny Bond will fail to activate. This is a bug and will be fixed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Other<\/strong><\/p>\n

            \n
          • We will address an issue that can cause the game to forcibly close at certain locations. As a result of this fix, there may be a reduction of Pok\u00e9mon and people displayed in certain towns or in the wild.<\/li>\n
          • When a Pok\u00e9mon that is not a part of the Paldea Pok\u00e9dex is obtained through a Link Trade, it is displayed as being registered to the Paldea Pok\u00e9dex. This is a bug and will be fixed.<\/li>\n
          • Certain actions can cause the main character\u2019s expressions to not change until the game is closed and reopened. This will be fixed.<\/li>\n
          • A bug occurred for some players after Ranked Battles Season 1, wherein visiting the Ranked Battles screen immediately after the season\u2019s results had been calculated caused a communication error right after these players received their rewards. Following this error, players were unable to participate in any further Ranked Battles. This will be fixed.<\/li>\n
          • If a player has created several Battle Teams but does not use the Battle Team in the first slot for their Ranked Battles, they may not receive the Master Rank Ribbon after winning Ranked Battles in the Master Ball Tier. This will be fixed.<\/li>\n
          • When a Pok\u00e9mon you caught comes back to you from another player through Link Trade, it may not listen to your commands in accordance with what is written in the profile app (\u201cPok\u00e9mon caught at Lv. XX or below will listen to your commands\u201d). This will be fixed.<\/li>\n
          • A bug is preventing the Pok\u00e9dex from displaying additional entries (such as entries for Shiny Pok\u00e9mon or Pok\u00e9mon that were received through Surprise Trade from players that play in a different language) for Pok\u00e9mon species that were already registered in the Pok\u00e9dex. This will be fixed.<\/li>\n
          • Objects such as Pok\u00e9 Balls may be displayed in certain locations of the field unintentionally. This will be fixed.<\/li>\n
          • Passersby will no longer be displayed during certain battles that take place in towns during the main story.<\/li>\n
          • Other select bug fixes will be implemented.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
