“The gender of some Pokémon in the tutorial is incorrect” – Pokémon Champions bug fixes to tackle mega evolution issues and more

Pokémon Champions will be receiving some substantial bug fixes in upcoming patches, developer The Pokemon Works has announced.

Announced in a new blog post, these changes affect certain moves which weren’t working correctly, mega evolutions problems, and incorrect genders for certain tutorial Pokémon .

The full list of fixes is as follows:

• The description of the “Leech Seed” state is incorrect.
• Incorrect: Takes damage equal to 1/16 of maximum HP
• Correct: Takes damage equal to 1/8 of maximum HP (However, the calculation is correct during battle.)
• Under certain conditions, when both Pokémon Mega Evolve simultaneously, the order may be unintended.
• The gender of some Pokémon in the tutorial is incorrect.
• The gender of some Pokémon in the released coordinated teams is incorrect.
• When in Encore state, the ability “Lightning Rod” may not activate correctly.
• When viewing move details during battle, if you hover the cursor over “Mega Evolution” and press the B button, you cannot select the move.
• *If this phenomenon occurs, you can avoid the inability to select the move by opening and closing the surrender window with the “-” button.

In addition, the blog announced a bug involving communication errors popping up when sending Pokémon on expeditions from Pokémon Home.

This post comes only a day following the game’s release. It has been met with a mixed reception from fans, many of whom were pushed away due to performance problems and missing items and Pokémon.
