"Pokemon Scarlet & Violet" is the latest mainline Pokemon game which landed just last Nov. 18. However, its debut was spoiled shortly after by massive glitches in-game.

While some fans thought that Nintendo did a great job introducing a new open-world Japanese role-playing game (JRPG), some players concluded that the ninth gen game was too rushed.

Because of this, the gaming giant reportedly refunds the affected players for the bugs and other inconveniences.

When The Pokemon Company, Nintendo, and Game Freak announced that the next installment after "Pokemon Legends: Arceus: would arrive this year, the fans quickly got hyped by the announcement.

Unfortunately, the arrival of "Pokemon Scarlet & Violet" did not translate well for some players because of the infuriating glitches and technical issues.

According to Gamerant, the latest Pokemon games are history's "worst-reviewed" mainline games. The criticisms keep flooding the internet as people criticize that the Nintendo Switch could not keep up with the game's performance.

Just like a rock-type Pokemon, "Pokemon Scarlet & Violet" started in a rocky manner. As expected, Nintendo could not keep up with many complaints from gamers worldwide.

'Pokemon Scarlet & Violet' Technical Issues

When you search the internet for "Pokemon glitch," you will notice that most of them are linked to the latest game.

From massive glitches to clippings, the technical issues are never-ending. Some also complained that their characters have extended limbs or torsos while walking.

Another concern is the noticeable fps drop which leads us to think that the Switch can't handle the heavy graphical improvements of the game.

Aside from these, others saw that their characters transformed into titans with broken arms. Some hilarious glitches include a Pokemon penetrating a trainer's body and Fuecoco falling into the water.
