Ever since launch,Pokemon Scarlet & Violethave had a…notoriousreputation for bugs. Errors both big and small have popped up for players everywhere, which can make glitches with relatively reasonable explanations feel distressing. As a prime example, some players have encountered a niche bug in the newTeal MaskDLC that prevents fast traveling anywhere on the map. Sure, you can travel around Paldea just fine, and you can even walk around Kitakami freely if you’re already there. But if you’re already in Paldea and you hit this bug, no more Kitakami for you.
Fortunately, you can fix this fast travel bug by redownloading thePokemon Scarlet & Violet: The Teal MaskDLC. To do this, follow these steps:
Note that, if you’re inPokemon ScarletorVioletwhen you do this, you’ll have to close the game and reopen it for the fix to work. But once that’s done, you’ll have nothing to worry about.
What causes the fast travel bug in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet?
It seems like the most likely culprit is simply transferring Nintendo Switch systems. Even if you slap your game cartridge in your system or redownload the game, it seems you need to reconfirm you own the DLC too. That’s why the above fix works, even if it’s not obvious that that’s causing the problem. Game Freak, am I right?
Either way, at least this one is pretty easy to fix. Get back to your adventures in Kitakami!
