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.
