Current Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Tera Raid Battle Events Suspended Due To Reward Bug

Scarlet and Violet having bugs and glitches?! Shocking stuff.

Bugs in a game that already had lots of bugs already! What a shock!

lol

I like the hair that glitches through hat.

More time for Zelda this weekend. Oh noes.

I do really love this game - but even I can admit that Gen 9 has been utterly atrocious overall for this sort of nonsense. XD

Oh because otherwise these raids are perfectly working fine, sure. No sensations of totally casual commands inputting and reactions

What's really confusing about this is that the Iron Leaves and Walking Wake raids ALSO had vacant TM slots but those ones didn't crash. Kind of just curious what the difference is.

I bought Violet for my son, a 7-year-old Pokémon fan. Even he couldn't stomach it. Never again.

I’m still hearing the ‘G’ & ‘B’ words not encouraging!

Oh well I’m sure they will rush out another Pokemon title before the end of the year.

• Edit incomplete one!

Nintendo should put the entire game on pause

Tara Reid is in Pokemon?

I've played through both games and the hate they get for bugs is a bit overblown. I mean, stuff like this definitely could've been avoided with proper testing, but still the games are very much playable AND enjoyable.

I wish Quality Assurance testing was still a thing in gaming.

I really wanted to get this game but it just seems tooooooooooo broken as is and seems like it is getting more broken. Aren't things supposed to be fixed over time?

Glad I didn’t wait until this week to do Chesnaught!

We want you to fix the glitches!

Game Freak: What’s that? You want MORE glitches???

@FantasiaWHT LOL That is what I thought when I first saw the term and thought she must have been a Pokemon fan too. 😄

Glad I did the Chesnaught raid last week while I could then, and the Iron Treads/Great Tusk event didn't seem like anything special to me.

I still hope they fix it soon for folks who still need Chesnaught. Can't say I'm surprised that issues like this pop up considering how poorly the game performs in general.

It's funny how Nintendo can publish a game like TOTK which is immense, and then allow something totally inferior like Pokemon SV to be released. Now I love SV, but compare the world to that in TOTK and it's floor grime.

how are people still playing this buggy mess?

@McBurn cause we're not whiny crybabies like you

I haven't experienced the bug cause I don't really care about either of these raids. All I want is the DLC to come out so I can play the game again. I haven't really touched it in months since I beat the game cause there's absolutely nothing to do post game.

@Bobb i did, cause unlike you and every other so called fan I actually did enjoy the game.

This game is a mess.

Lmao at the people in the last thread like:

"Thank goodness I got so sick of so many people whining and crying about this, now they can get back to whining and crying about the performance issues, while the rest of us can get back to enjoying the tera raids and waiting for the dlc."

@michellelynn0976 how u holdin up?

@MagicMan whatever you say, man x'D

@MagicMan @Bobb

Freaking love how this guy is over here gatekeeping people as "so called fans" for enjoying the game but admitting there's bugs, while admitting themselves that they haven't played the game in months because of the lack of post-game.

I know gamefreak has dropped the ball in many ways regarding this game and it’s performance, but still, I think their ambition overshadowed the limitations of this switch, and that should shine a spotlight on just how outdated this hardware is and the need for an upgrade with backwards compatibility so it can better run games like this (kind of like what Nintendo did with the “new 3ds”, 5 years after the original 3ds launch).

@Kiyata

"I think their ambition overshadowed the limitations of this switch"

I understand not everyone is familiar with Xenoblade, but at the very least - you cannot say this with a straight face 1 week after TOTK came out.

@Kiyata Gamefreak's ambition is rooted in things companies were doing over a decade ago. GF is in way over their head. They need to hire more talented developers. Keep the creators of Mons > fire the programmers and get better ones.

I still can’t unlock 6 & 7 star Tera raids in my Pokémon scarlet save. I have them unlocked in my Pokémon violet. I think either the ditto or Blissey five star evens haulted my progress, that and/or the 1.30 update has.
I’ve cleared the three main stories, including the credits, after the robot professor. And did alot of 5 star Tera raids, it just won’t unlock.

The longer this goes on the more embarrassing it is. The fact that pokemon games at least ran well was one of the reasons people continued to forgive the games looking like they were generations behind everything else and now they can't even say that. I don't normally complain much about graphics in a game, but that's when said game is from a franchise that isn't worth as much. When a series like pokemon continues to look terrible it just feels like they're being lazy because they know it will sell anyways.

Besides Update 1.0.2 being a shame, people deserve more trouble and that's ok.

TPC goes beyond of TOTAL amateurism!

@BLD Since we're bringing up irrelevant stuff from other threads here's one for the haters:
https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2023/05/japanese-charts-zelda-tears-of-the-kingdom-dominates-surprising-no-one
5 million physical passed in Japan! How the haters holdin' up?

@tadams587 You also need to do the gym rematches and post game tournament in addition to everything else you mentioned to unlock 6 star raids.

@FirstEmperor

You're bringing up Zelda sales... why, exactly?

@FirstEmperor

I don't re-call having to do the gym rematches or a another tournament on my Violet Save.
Did I somehow unlock 6 star raids early on a earlier update?
I'll guess I'll try doing what you said for my Scarlet Save, despite my Violet letting me do a six star Raid after both "robo dad" was beaten, and Violet's mascot legendary being officially registered to me. Another 8 battles and another tourney somewhere?

@BLD Wrong. I'm bringing up Japanese sales because Pokémon SV recently passed 5 million physical sold in Japan. Nothing to do with Zelda.

@tadams587 After you watch the credits there's some postgame content you unlock by talking to Geeta at the academy. Not sure how you could've unlocked 6 star raids on your other save as I believe this has always been required.

@BLD Pretty good. How are you?
