Pokemon Sword/Shield exploit impacting competitive play
Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Glitches and exploits seem to come hand in hand with Pokemon games. The latest entry, Pokemon Sword/Shield, was just recently impacted by one major issue in which hacked creatures could be sent through Surprise Trade. The situation resulted in crashes and could prevent online interactions. Fortunately, the games were eventually patched.
