Pokemon Scarlet and Violet 7 Star Porygon2 Guide

To celebrate the launch of Nintendo Switch 2, the 7 Star Porygon2 Tera Raid Battle event for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet is live now. It’s fairly easy as far as 7-Star Raids go, but we’ve written a guide with potential checks and counters regardless. The event runs from now until June 16 alongside Porygon2 outbreaks with a boosted Shiny chance. This Porygon2 is Tera Normal, which only leaves it weak to Fighting-type attacks.

June 2: Today, Eastasiasoft revealed that it will publish an English version of Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth2: Sisters Generation for Nintendo Switch in Asia with English support. English and Japanese voicework will be included along with English and Traditional Chinese text.

Previously, Idea Factory intended to publish the Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth on Nintendo Switch in the west. However, that ended up being scrapped since the games “did not comply with Nintendo Guidelines.”

As fans begin to test different Nintendo Switch games running on Switch 2, we’re starting to hear about certain games that are automatically improved on the new system without patches. One of the biggest examples of this is Batman: Arkham Knight.

When Batman: Arkham Knight came to Nintendo Switch, it suffered from serious performance issues. Digital Foundry determined that “the CPU is pushed hard streaming in and decompressing data” due to the open world, and based on stutters in the port, it seemed that storage was stressed as well. Reaching the 30 frames per second cap just didn’t happen a lot of the time. It’d often go into the 20s and even below that, which doesn’t make for a great experience.
