Pokémon Violet and Scarlet’s Switch 2 update is as good as it looks

I recently did something sort of unusual: I went to a preview event for a game that's been out for almost three years.

I've played around 400 hours of Pokémon Scarlet, according to my Nintendo Switch, since it was released in late 2022. It's safe to say I know the game pretty well. And yet, when I was invited to preview Pokémon Scarlet and Violet on the Nintendo Switch 2 ahead of the new console's launch, I gladly took the opportunity to see three-year-old games I already own. I wanted to find out just how much they'd improved.
