Pokémon Scarlet & Violet on sale now. Although they marked a successful debut in general, the truth is that the experience they offer is very very marred by the performance deficiencies of Nintendo Switch and, above all, the poor optimization of Game Freak. Naturally, criticism and ridicule have not been long in coming.
We made it clear from the beginning, the consensus is that both titles have a very good proposal and are shaping up to be one of the best sellers in the history of Nintendo, but unfortunately this cannot justify that they are 2 of the games that run the worst in Nintendo Switch and makes us wonder how much fans are willing to put up with performance issues when the game concept is good.
Don’t forget to follow us on Google News.
Pokemon Scarlet & Violet have great gameplay…but it’s seriously bogged down by horrible graphics issues. They take gamers out of the experience. “Students kicking legs under desk” shouldn’t cause this much frame rate issues.

Fans mock the performance of Pokémon Scarlet & Violet
The story of Pokemon Sword & Shield Y Pokemon Legends: Arceus was repeated with Pokémon Scarlet & Violet in the sense that technically the game leaves much to be desired. Pokemon Sword & Shield they had mainly visual problems, but Pokemon Legends: Arceus I also conjugate them with performance shortcomings that are attributed more to Game Freak than to the limitations of the Nintendo Switch. As well, Pokémon Scarlet & Violet They took these problems to a new level.
We say this because Pokémon Scarlet & Violet they are so poorly optimized that they cause the game to drop to 15 fps, apparently due to memory issues, the only solution so far is to restart the game. This problem is the main one and perhaps the most notorious, but it is one that is replicated repeatedly and that makes Paldea perhaps the biggest region, but the ugliest in the series.
In case you missed it: how to fix performance issues Pokémon Scarlet & Violet?
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet to be the first game at a locked 15 fps

The state in which Pokemon Scarlet and Purple have been released seems to me a real shame, I don’t remember my eyes bleeding like that with another game. The worst thing is that I think it will not have a solution if the game drops to 10-15 fps with the current graphic settings.

2 hours playing Pokemon Scarlet and the switch looks like it’s going to fly, lots of bugs and 15 fps almost all the time. For the rest quite well ???
— The Catacroquer (@TheCatacroquer) November 18, 2022
It turns out that the new Pokemon, an exclusive game for the console, comes out with drops at 15 fps due to memory problems, as we already said in the stream, it is unfortunate that a first party game in 2022 comes out with such basic problems, the “solution” is restart every hour they say

In some places, mainly caves, rarely any Pokémon can spawn on a wall. If you press ZL while moving the camera you can tell that the Pokémon has actually spawned in an unreachable area. pic.twitter.com/QzGzJIPoYv

On social networks, fans not only pointed this out, but also made fun of it, mentioning that the drawing distance of Pokémon Scarlet & Violet it is 4 meters and that Microsoft Power Point slides go faster and that Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation 2 games look and run better: “after 4 hours of playing you get used to 15 fps”, commented a user on Twitter.
“It’s incredible how little money, love and time they invest in that franchise [de videojuegos]another user commented.
“Unfortunate about Game Freak (…). It seems that we are playing a Beta,” said the streamer TheCatacroquer. “In terms of optimization it is terrible, it is the worst game I have played on Switch and in a long time, and the worst Pokemon talking about optimization and graphics”.
Pokémon Scarlet/Violet runs SO BAD on switch, its embarrassing they even released it in this state. I’m talking REGULAR dips in FPS to 15 and below.
—FamilyValues (@Step69Bro) November 18, 2022
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet look like 3DS games LMAO, and yet they can’t manage 15 fps. Wild
— The Outcast (@OutsideOutcast) November 19, 2022
It seems that we are playing a beta, as you appear in your room, I turned the camera and went through the wall, seeing black and white squares, the Pokémon and characters appear and disappear every so often, the rendering distance is like 20 meters.
— The Catacroquer (@TheCatacroquer) November 18, 2022
The new Pokemon is beautiful… but the rendering distance is about 4 meters, which makes it look pixelated many times, that should make the game run smoother, even so you go almost all the time at 15 – 20 fps I hope they fix it because the game is so cool

Tunden Game Freak for the state in which he launched Pokémon Scarlet & Violet
That’s not all, apart from animation problems or 3D models, Pokémon Scarlet & Violet They come to present some bugs that can frustrate the gaming experience. Thus, the community reflected on how harshly criticized cyberpunk 2077 for its bugs in its premiere and not Nintendo for Pokemon Scarlet Violet.
Cyberpunk, Avengers, Gotham Knights… etc. are all modern triple AAA games and technically infinitely superior to Pokemon, which, let’s remember, is one of the franchises that generates the most money in the world. and People beat those games to infinity but pokemon xq yolo.
— Blazerg (@Theblazerg) November 18, 2022
I have been seeing a bit of the new Pokémon and my god the game looks like a power point presentation it goes at 15 fps and on top of that artistically it leaves a lot to be desired
– Kimbi (ale) (@alegallardoo08) November 18, 2022
“It seems a real shame to me the state in which they have released Pokémon Scarlet & Violet (…), bugs are one thing, they can be fixed, but this is Pokemon it is very very poorly optimized and games like Zelda [Breath of the Wild] They show that it’s not a console thing,” said another user, whose arguments are supported by Digital Foundry, which after an analysis it did in its time of Pokemon Legends: Arceus He commented that the problems are not from Nintendo Switch, but from Game Freak.
Then we leave you with more of the compilation that shows the lousy optimization of Pokémon Scarlet & Violet.
