During the last days, social networks have been filled with various videos that demonstrate a series of visual problems and glitches related to Pokémon Scarlet & Violet. While many of these inconveniences come from official copies, it was recently discovered that Switch emulators present their own bugs.

According to a series of users in the You Reddit, a famous switch emulator for PC, this software, as well as others, have shown to have problems at the time of running the new generation. Recall that Scarlet & Violet leaked prior to their launch, so Rom began to circulate for several days. This was what a user commented:

Game in both [versions, emulator and switch]. The console has fluency problems, but it is more stable than emulators at the moment. Sometimes you get around the terrain with the camera, but nothing breaks the graphics at this level.

While this questions many of the videos of glitches and bugs that we have seen in recent days, it is important to mention that Pokémon Scarlet & Violet in Switch does suffer from multiple visual problems that go beyond the performance we see.

Editor’s note:

It is true that Pokémon Scarlet & Violet have many technical and visual problems, and Game Freak should have taken more time to seek a better experience for every1. The topic here is: is the experience in general, or only the graphics?
