Invisible Miraidon Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

A Pokemon Scarlet & Violet glitch has the ability to turn Koraidon and Miraidon invisible while they’re in their motorcycle form.

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet are well-known for glitches, especially ones that occur while exploring. The Paldea region feels like it’s held together with tape sometimes, as it’s so easy to glitch out of bounds or cause weird things to happen to the wild Pokemon.

The various Pokemon Scarlet & Violet bugs might be distracting, but they generally won’t affect your playthrough. It’s more the performance issues that take you out of the experience, as glitches are far less common than the slowdown or pop-in.

A new patch has been released for Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, but that was mostly centered around issues introduced in the DLC. There are still many problems in the game, as revealed by a hilarious new glitch that causes mounts to become invisible.

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet glitch creates an invisible ride

A user on the Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Reddit has uploaded a video of yet another Pokemon Scarlet & Violet bug. This time, it’s one that caused Miraidon to turn invisible while they were riding it, making it look like the main character was flying through the air.

It didn’t take long for other users in the thread to compare the visual to a certain manic amphibian from the dark days of the Internet. “Cue the Axel F,” one user wrote, while another uttered the unholy words “Ding ding.”

It seems this is a common issue with the game. “I had this happen to me ages ago (before the dlc was announced), it happened after I drowned because Miraidon got stuck under the water,” one user said, while another wrote, “My game does it all the time too.”

The riding mechanics in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet are the source of many problems, especially when it comes to clipping or eternally falling. There are also riding bugs that stretch the main character’s limbs to a horrifying degree, making the game look like Junji Ito designed it.

The Gen 9 games have been out for over a year, and fans are starting to accept that many of these faults will not be fixed. This may result from hardware issues, and the mythical successor to the Switch might be able to resolve everything, but no one is holding their breath.
