Given how fresh Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are for the Nintendo Switch library, many issues continue to be spotted, including a clip that shows one player glitching into a building. Several Pokemon Scarlet and Violet bugs and glitches have been shared on social media since the games launched in November and this one seems to have gotten past the early patches.
A Reddit user has garnered over 400 upvotes on their Pokemon Scarlet and Violet clip showing them riding their Miraidon around Mesagoza when they seemingly trigger a glitch. Among the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet bugs that have already been spotted include one that turns Miraidon silver, another that causes Kingambit to spin out of control, and a few in which the player falls through the map. Although they aren't falling through the Mesagoza map in their Pokemon Scarlet and Violet video, this player shows another way that fans can clip through the Pokemon region of Paldea.
Reddit user AceSFX recently shared a brief Pokemon Scarlet and Violet clip showing them leaping from a higher level of Mesagoza before they turn around to climb back up where they came from. After hitting the corner of a building next to the blue Pokemon arena, the soaring Miraidon grasps the adjacent wall as the player starts to zigzag up it prior to triggering the glitch. Going too far to one side, the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet legendary phases through a wall and gets stuck in the handstand position that other players have already reported.
The video continues beyond the player accessing the normally closed-off area of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's Mesagoza to reveal a mostly empty interior. Inside the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet building are a couple of unfinished columns, the door and window frames, and a few walls that make the area seem more complete when viewed from the outside. Given that AceSFX's Pokemon Scarlet and Violet clip concludes before they leave the building that they've glitched into, it's currently unclear if they were able to return to their prior location or if a game restart was required.
Because AceSFX's video shows what's likely an unintended moment, The Pokemon Company may update Pokemon Scarlet and Violet in the future to prevent players from accessing this Mesagoza building. One Reddit user offered a tip to other Pokemon Scarlet and Violet fans that find themselves in the same conundrum, recommending they open the in-game map in order to easily return to the last Pokestop that they visited.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are available now for Nintendo Switch.
