Playing Pokemon X & Y? Don’t Save Inside Lumiose City

Pokemon X & Y swooped in this weekend to entertain gamers across the globe. While it has been an addictive and charming game for many, it’s been more of a headache for others.

A very serious bug has been reported in Pokemon X & Y where players who save their game in Lumiose City are unable to progress the game any further.

Nintendo and Game Freak have been contacted to comment but no official statement has been made.
