Although Nintendo of America has remained mute on the matter, Nintendo of Japan issued a comment.
Nintendo of Japan announced a fix will be available for download soon. As a courtesy, Nintendo of Japan also provided a map of the areas that have been affected by the glitch, although it is in the Japanese language.
"Pokémon X and Y" launched, for the first time worldwide on Oct. 12, across Australia, Europe, Japan, and North America with the latter having a suggested retail price of $39.99.
As Latinos Post reported, four million copes of the latest Pokémon games were sold during its first weekend launch. The sales of the Kalos-region-based games set a record for the Nintendo 3DS handset console.
"Pokémon X and Y" includes nearly 70 new Pokémon, Mega Evolution, and the Pokémon Amie feature, which is the method to evolve the latest Eevee evolution, Sylveon.
As a reminder, the games also feature the Torchic distribution event, which has been available since Oct. 12 and ends Jan. 15, 2014. Torchic will be available with the item "Blazikenite," which will transform Torchic's last evolution, Blaziken, into "MegaBlaziken." Wi-Fi connection is needed to obtain the Fire-type Hoenn starter Pokémon.
Finally, the two-episode preview of the "Pokémon X and Y" anime season is set to premiere on Cartoon Network on Oct. 19 at 2 p.m. EST. The two-episode premiere includes Ash Ketchum arriving to the Kalos region with journalist Alexa and the introduction of Serena, Bonnie, and Lumiose City Gym Leader Clemont.
