Pokémon X & Y Lumiose City Save Bug Patch Available Now
Nintendo has issued a patch for Pokémon X & Y this morning that is meant to repair a game-breaking bug that appeared when players attempted to save their games in certain areas of Lumiose City.
The patch can be accessed by entering the eShop, where you should receive an alert that an update is available for a game in your library.
According to Nintendo's UK site, the patch fixes the save bug, and also fixes issues that players were having when using the GTS, which allows players to trade Pokémon around the world.

Our Take
It's still feels a little weird to update a Nintendo game on a Nintendo handheld, which is a testament to the polish of Nintendo's games. Some issues will always slip by, however, so it's good that Nintendo was able to address the issue relatively fast.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
