Pokémon HOME’s Scarlet and Violet update gets new release date after sudden delayhttps://dotesports.com/pokemon/news/pokemon-homes-scarlet-and-violet-update-gets-new-release-date-after-sudden-delayFri, 26 May 2023 01:36:51 +0000https://dotesports.com/?p=874899The saga is almost over.]]>

Pokémon HOME’s highly-anticipated Scarlet and Violet update, which will finally allow players to transfer Pokémon to the Gen IX titles, has been given a new release date. It will now release on May 30 after some preparatory maintenance.

Fans initially thought it was going to release on Tuesday, May 23 because The Pokémon Company said so in an official announcement on its English social media channels. It turns out, however, this was a mistake, and fans weren’t happy about it. They feared it could have been because the new feature was unfinished.

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s latest raid event is suffering from major crashing issueshttps://dotesports.com/pokemon/news/pokemon-scarlet-and-violets-latest-raid-event-is-suffering-from-major-crashing-issuesFri, 19 May 2023 01:33:30 +0000https://dotesports.com/?p=869480It's happening again.]]>

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s latest Tera Raid Battle Event featuring Great Tusk and Iron Treads appears to be causing crashes, according to player reports on May 18. It’s believed to be a result of the game trying to get the TM Material for Paradox Pokémon, which doesn’t exist.

The same issue happened once before during the Walking Wake and Iron Leaves Tera Raid Battle Event on Feb. 28, but this time, it actually shows the item appearing as ‘None’ in the rewards list before crashing. Joe Merrick, the webmaster of the popular Serebii website, believes it’s bad enough to warrant an imminent fix.

The Pokémon core series has remained popular after 30 years without much change—it’s simple, fun, it works, and there’s no shortage of new Pokémon to catch. But as players have pointed out many times, there’s always room to improve, especially when it comes to the lack of compelling endgame content, which is always a hot topic.

Game Freak has been working on endgame features, including adding more things for players to do after finishing Scarlet and Violet. For example, they can rematch gym leaders, participate in the repeatable Ace Academy tournament, and more.
