Bug Fixes and Enhancements

Support for Trainers Affected by Tera Raid Battle Bug

Trainers who caught an Egg instead of Walking Wake or Iron Leaves in a Tera Raid Battle before updating to version 1.2.0 of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet were affected by a bug that prevented them from catching either of these Pokemon. Fortunately, this bug has been fixed in the latest update, and Trainers who caught such Eggs instead of Walking Wake and Iron Leaves will now be able to catch these Pokemon. In addition, the Tera Raid Battle events for these two Pokemon will return around the same time as this game update.

Changes to Entries for Friendly Competitions

A change has been made to the deadline for entries for Friendly Competitions, which are found in the Online Competitions section of the Battle Stadium. Before this change, entries were allowed until the Friendly Competition began. However, after this change, entries will be allowed until the Friendly Competition ends.

Fixes for Link Battles Bug Issues

The latest update for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet includes several fixes for Link Battles bug issues. One of the most significant fixes is for a bug that occurred in Link Battles where selecting Swap in just before the selection timer reached zero could fail to switch in the selected Pokemon and subsequently cause switching, and the battle itself to act abnormally. Additionally, a bug that occurred in Link Battles where once the remaining time for the battle was under one minute, it would no longer be displayed where it was supposed to. Furthermore, a bug that occurred in Link Battles where, depending on the move being used at the time a Pokemon fainted, the amount of time a Trainer received to select their next Pokemon was reduced, has also been fixed.

Fixing Cud Chew Ability Bug

A bug where the Cud Chew Ability would trigger again once every two turns after it triggered the first time, contrary to what is written in the Ability description, has been fixed in the latest update.

Fixing Illusion Ability Bug

The latest update for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet fixes a bug that occurred when Zoroark Terastallized while using its Illusion Ability to disguise itself as another Pokemon. On the Check Status screen, the Terastallized Zoroark’s type would display as the original type of the Pokemon it had disguised itself as, rather than Zoroark’s Tera Type. Additionally, a bug that occurred when Zoroark used its Illusion Ability to disguise itself as another Pokemon that had already Terastallized. This bug caused Zoroark’s type on the Check Status screen to incorrectly display as the Tera Type of the Pokemon Zoroark had disguised itself as.

Enhanced Pokemon GO Connectivity

The latest update for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet provides enhanced connectivity with Pokemon GO, fixing the main issue that was causing the game to crash on the screen used to pair with a Pokemon GO account.

Improvements to Tera Raid Battle Events
