146 - Battling Bugs

Hey there, and welcome to the latest episode of Pokésports, and the final for 2022!

In today's episode, we're chatting about some of the frustrating bugs and glitches we've experienced. Have you ever sat on Battle Stadium trying to find a match, only to be booted out and told "Sorry, no players are available"? Or have you had your Pokemon disappear for 20 seconds mid-battle? 

We also discuss the upcoming Oceania Internationals and the fact that they'll be played using Series 1 rules. While this is great news for players who are used to competing under these rules, it can be a bit of a challenge for those who are gearing up for Series 2, which is set to start at the beginning of February.

And speaking of regional tournaments, we also mention the Florida regionals and how they'll be using Series 1 rules as well. It's important to note that this means a shorter window for players to practice on cartridge, but hey, at least it's only for a few days, right?

Overall, it's clear that there are still some kinks to work out in the latest Pokemon game, but we're hopeful that future updates will address these issues and make for a smoother competitive experience. Thanks for tuning in, and we'll catch you in the next episode!
