If there’s one thing to be said of the Indigo Disk DLC for Pokémon Scarlet & Violet, it’s that it was quite an ambitious addition. A massive new area to explore, a whole host of new and returning Pokémon, and several entirely new moves added in. Unfortunately, when breaking ground like this, there’s bound to be a few mistakes that slip through the cracks. Fortunately, the latest update fixes quite a few of the issues players might have run into in the Blueberry Academy.
Before going over what all was fixed in the update, it is important to note that the update is rather large. The official patch notes page recommends that users have at least 5.2GB of free space to download the update, so if you haven’t automatically gotten the update and are wondering why, be sure to check your available storage space.
Version 3.0.1 patch notes for Pokémon Scarlet & Violet
If the player used items to level up an Inkay to Lv. 29 or lower, the game would stop responding to button input. This bug has been fixed.
Some materials needed to craft TM223 (Metal Sound) were previously dropped by a Pokémon that appears in only one version of the game. This issue has been resolved. Shieldon Claws are no longer required to craft TM223 (Metal Sound).
After players installed the Item Printer in the League Club Room, under certain circumstances players could get stuck between the Item Printer and the wall. This bug has been fixed. Affected players can now get unstuck by speaking to the character next to the Item Printer and selecting “I want to print something!”
When a Pokémon under the effect of Dragon Cheer was switched out of battle and then reentered that battle, its attacks would still have a heightened chance of landing critical hits. This bug has been fixed.
Certain moves that Calyrex could learn via TM only while united with Glastrier or Spectrier would remain in Calyrex’s move set even after Calyrex separated from Glastrier or Spectrier. Furthermore, even if those moves were forgotten, Calyrex could then remember those moves without being united with Glastrier or Spectrier. This bug has been fixed.
Other select bug fixes have been implemented.
Sorry, buddy! You’ve been patched.
One infamous glitch that some may be wondering about is the item duplication method utilizing Smeargle. This glitch has also been fixed despite not being directly mentioned in the patch notes. Wild Smeargle are now unable to use the move Transform in battle, it will always fail. This does not apply to multiplayer battles though, only wild encounters.
