I've got like 45 hours on it but I don't see any of the "fun" glitches from Tiktok on it. Just some graphical nonsense with mountains or lag.

[colorstoobright]

same tbh

I’m thinking about getting it for my 10 year old for Christmas (she got Sword last year and liked it). Will she get frustrated with the glitches or they’re no big deal?

[infected]

The only "glitches" I've had are that the pixels look like they are moving as you get closer to mountains, and the frame rate seems to drop at times / lag in the menu. I don't think a 10 year old would be too bothered honestly.

I was so disappointed when the music reverted to normal gym leader music for the final battle of the ghost gym, I was having a little rave with my greavard

I've still been having such a blast playing, and I do feel like the performance has slightly improved...ALTHOUGH just yesterday a random ass Buizel icon from the map stays on my screen even after I exit the map. It's RIDICULOUS but also kind of hilarious lol. I've noticed that the performance is notably better if you close the game and start it again as opposed to hopping back on while it's in idle mode.

My team rn:
1. Quaquaval
2. Tinkaton
3. Tsareena (THAT girl)
4. Armarouge
5. Ampharos (I must have trained an Ampharos like 7 times in my life but I love him)
6. Gabite (almost at Garchomp, may replace w/ Goodra my cutie lil sludge dragon <3)

Also I've been looking everywhere in its habitats for a Komala (I need it to craft the Shadow Claw TM for my Gabite) and I cannot for the life of me find that STUPID fucking koala anywhere and it's driving me fucking bonkers lmfaoooooo

Tinkaton is my new fave! love that girly and her massive hammer.

[alienjive]

She gives me Amy Rose vibes <3

I feel like I always see a Komala walking around just outside the normal gym's city.

i actually haven't run into many bugs or anything, but i really hate the way the open world is. i have to look up which gym i'm supposed to do next every time lmao why wouldn't they just make the levels scale?

[alienjive]

I also have to look it up and that is kinda annoying. I have the gym/titan/team star order bookmarked on my phone lol

[epona]

same! i keep thinking if i was a kid and i just got dumped into the open world i would be so lost lol

[juanitatequila]

the in game map doesn't help either and it's confusing sometimes to navigate ugh

[magnetic_rose92]

I haven't had glitch issues tbh. Just a slight lag when I enter big cities but even that isn't too bad.

tbh this is probably my favorite Pokemon game after Heartgold/Soulsilver. It's just so fun going around exploring and catch Pokemon. I like the three storylines too. Arven is my bb. And I'm almost done, I just need to beat the elite four.

They need to introduce a patch that lets you change clothes tho. The school uniforms SUCK. The winter and spring uniform are alright but even then it's so hard to match those with the customizations I wanna do. I want my girlie to have a pastel pink vibe and I can't achieve that with those dark blue ugly pants.

My boy is bougie af all my accessories are from the high end stores, he’s got the black loafers, black leather bag, black beret, long black hair and the autumn uniform looking snatched lol

[tucker]

Oh shit mine is still in his school uniform 👦🏻

[alienjive]

Well they all are babe but you gotta ~~accessorize
