Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 6 Comments
Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon have received a new update. Version 1.2 is out now, and is required to play online.
The new patch addresses these issues:
• Pokémon being unable to attack and switch when Sky Drop is used and when knocked out by damage done by Spiky Shield.
• A glitch in Poké Pelago when entering a new month.
• A rare case where the game ends after using an Evolution item as the last item in your Bag.
• Scatterbug sometimes not learning Egg Moves.
• Eggs sometimes being able to be given items.
• A glitch ending the tournament when pre-registered for an online Friendly Competition (e.g. entry gets canceled or the Battle Teams get unlocked).
Note: after version 1.2 has been installed, any Battle Videos saved prior to the update cannot be played or shared.
