Overview
- Developers released version 2.0.1 as a post‑DLC maintenance patch that addresses multiple edge‑case bugs introduced after the 2.0.0 Bubbly Basin update.
- The patch repairs crashes and freezes and fixes cases where the game could get stuck on the loading screen, problems that could block progress or prevent online access.
- Specific gameplay fixes include correcting Ho‑Oh and Lugia visual glitches, restoring Pokédex search results, allowing players to pick up the Move Kit, and stopping repeated sound effects.
- The update is required to use online features and enforces version parity for local multiplayer, so all players must install 2.0.1 to join online or local sessions.
- Patch details were posted on the official Japanese product page and English‑localized notes were pending at publication, so players should check the game page or their Switch 2 for the rollout and install instructions.
