Pokemon Champions Bug On Switch 2 Demands You Briefly Undock The System

The launch of Pokemon Champions has come with more problems than you can fit in a Poke Ball, but a Switch 2-specific bug affecting the game's resolution might take the cake as the strangest issue.

Prominent Pokemon fan account Centro Leaks (via IGN) pointed out that Pokemon Champions runs at a lower 1080p resolution in TV mode on Switch 2, and the current solution to get proper 4K visuals is to undock the Switch 2 and re-dock it. Joe Merrick, owner of fan site Serebii, corroborated the existence of the glitch in an X post.

Pokemon Champions only has a version for the first Nintendo Switch, but it's one of many Nintendo-published titles with enhanced visuals through a free Switch 2 update. According to Nintendo's website, Champions on Switch 2 is optimized for the console's screen and "high-resolution TVs for improved image quality."
