Summary
Pokemon Scarlet and Violetwill get their next update on Thursday, February 1.Pokemon Scarlet and Violethave been updated multiple times since they originally launched in 2022. Many of these updates have been targeted atPokemon Scarlet and Violetglitches and technical problems, while others have added new content.
SomePokemon Scarlet and Violetupdates have addednew Pokemon raid bosses, while one of the more recent ones added an entire Epilogue for the games’Hidden Treasure of Area Zeroexpansions. The next update forPokemon Scarlet and Violetis expected to be on the smaller side of things, and as of the time of this writing, the only thing players know it will address is the glitched Dragon Cheer move.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Dragon Cheer movemakes it so Pokemon have a greater chance of landing critical hits. The move is supposed to be negated when a Pokemon is switched out of battle, but that doesn’t actually happen. It was announced that the Dragon Cheer issue would be fixed “in mid-January 2024 or later” as part of thePokemon Scarlet and Violet3.0.1. update. Now the specific date of February 1 has been announced, soPokemon Scarlet and Violetfans can expect Dragon Cheer to be fixed in just a couple of days' time.
When is Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Update 3.0.1 Coming Out?
WithPokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Epilogue already out, one could be forgiven for assuming that support for the game would be winding down. However, there is some evidence to suggest that a bigPokemon Scarlet and Violetupdate is still on the way. A reliable leaker has teased thatPokemon Scarlet and Violetare adding a new Mythical Pokemon, and that said Pokemon will be featured in an upcoming animatedPokemonmovie. None of this has been confirmed in an official capacity though, and so fans should take this news with a grain of salt.
The good news is that clarification on that front is likely to come sooner rather than later. Pokemon Day is on February 27, and it always brings with it some big announcements for fans ofthePokemonfranchise. Pokemon Day 2024 is unlikely to be an exception, and if there are still plans forPokemon Scarlet and Violet, one has to imagine that they will be revealed at the event. For now,Pokemon Scarlet and Violetfans can circle February 1 on their calendars, as that’s the day the next update for the games will drop.
