===Language icon glitch=== | |||
In the Pokémon summary view, if the player selects a Pokémon from a game in the player's native language, switches to the second page (with nature, capture data, and ribbons), selects a foreign language Pokémon and then the first Pokémon again, and switches back to the first page, the foreign Pokémon's language icon will show up in the first Pokémon's details on the top screen. | In the Pokémon summary view, if the player selects a Pokémon from a game in the player's native language, switches to the second page (with nature, capture data, and ribbons), selects a foreign language Pokémon and then the first Pokémon again, and switches back to the first page, the foreign Pokémon's language icon will show up in the first Pokémon's details on the top screen. | ||

===Pokémon-Amie gift glitch=== | |||
The only Pokémon that is supposed to be able to grant a gift in [[Pokémon-Amie]] is the active Pokémon-Amie Pokémon. If a player stays at [[Hotel Richissime]] when a non-active Pokémon is within 30 points of granting an [[Affection]] gift and the active Pokémon either has maximum Affection or is more than 30 points from granting a gift, normally, no gift should be gained. However, if the player has not viewed Pokémon-Amie before staying at Hotel Richissime, then when they switch to Pokémon-Amie, they will receive a gift from the active Pokémon matching the set of the last Affection gift that it gave. | The only Pokémon that is supposed to be able to grant a gift in [[Pokémon-Amie]] is the active Pokémon-Amie Pokémon.

Whenever a player connects to the games' online function or services through the PSS menu, the player will be asked to save the current game before preceding. Among the data recorded and logged in this save is the system's current time and date. Should the player repeatedly connect to online services which require saving the game each time, the time and date recorded will fail to update. This will remain the case until the PSS menu has been exited out completely by the player. Data such as the game's current play time is unaffected, and will continue to update with each new save. | Whenever a player connects to the games' online function or services through the PSS menu, the player will be asked to save the current game before preceding.

It has been reported that some [[Save|save files]] of digitally downloaded copies of the games have become corrupted. This issue has affected other games downloadable on the {{wp|Nintendo eShop}} such as {{smw|Mario Kart 7}} and {{smw|Mario & Luigi: Dream Team}}. It has been suggested that a possible way to corrupt save data for any game that uses the SD card is to let the Nintendo 3DS's battery die while the game is accessing data from the SD card.<ref>[http://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/2m1eje/do_not_let_your_battery_die_mid_game_with_screen/ Do not let your battery die mid game with screen closed.

===Stereo sound glitch=== | |||
If the {{player}} sets the sound to stereo in the system settings, the game will reproduce the audio as if it was set in mono sound. This is more noticeable when playing the game with the use of headphones. | If the {{player}} sets the sound to stereo in the system settings, the game will reproduce the audio as if it was set in mono sound.

In order to enjoy truly stereo sound, the console has to be configured to surround in the system settings.

===Sylveon Pokédex entry glitch=== | ====Sylveon Pokédex entry glitch==== | ||
If the {{player}} has not yet obtained a [[Pokédex]] entry, obtaining the Pokémon or evolving a Pokémon obtained from any previous generation game will register a Pokédex entry with a {{i|Poké Ball}} sign. However, evolving an {{p|Eevee}} which was obtained from any previous generation game into a {{p|Sylveon}} will fail to register any Pokédex entry. It is possible that the programmers forgot to consider that Sylveon could come from an imported Eevee and therefore did not account for the possibility. | If the {{player}} has not yet obtained a [[Pokédex]] entry, obtaining the Pokémon or evolving a Pokémon obtained from any previous generation game will register a Pokédex entry with a {{i|Poké Ball}} sign.

In [[Mystery Gift]]'s Card Album, moving the cursor directly between two different forms of the same Pokémon (including by changing pages) will not update the form shown, even though the Wonder Card text changes. This glitch does not occur if a different Pokémon (or a blank Wonder Card entry) is shown in between (for example, if the player viewed Vivillon, then {{p|Torchic}}, then Vivillon). | In [[Mystery Gift]]'s Card Album, moving the cursor directly between two different forms of the same Pokémon (including by changing pages) will not update the form shown, even though the Wonder Card text changes.

===Vivillon Friend Safari glitch=== | ====Vivillon Friend Safari glitch==== | ||
If the {{player}} encountered a {{p|Vivillon}} in a Bug-type [[Friend Safari]] that was not the default Meadow Pattern, the game would show an empty Poké Ball icon in its place, as if it has not been encountered in the safari. This is due to the game defaulting to check for if the player has encountered a Meadow Pattern Vivillon within the safari and not the Vivillon pattern that the player would normally encounter, based on their geographic location. | If the {{player}} encountered a {{p|Vivillon}} in a Bug-type [[Friend Safari]] that was not the default Meadow Pattern, the game would show an empty Poké Ball icon in its place, as if it has not been encountered in the safari.

The Version 1.3 patch fixes this glitch by properly checking and displaying the icon for Vivillon's other patterns. If the player had found a Vivillon in a Friend Safari prior to the patch, however, it will not be automatically added to the list of that safari's three Pokémon, and it must be found again to be added. | The Version 1.3 patch fixes this glitch by properly checking and displaying the icon for Vivillon's other patterns.
