Here are all other highlighted changes in the new Pokemon update:
- Additional Colosseum Battle feature: You can enter the Colosseum on the second floor of the Pokemon Center. There you can fight with other players having customized rulesets. Battle options include Single, Double, and Multiplayer, on a local or online basis.
- Pokemon Trading Battles: If you have any Pokemon, that you obtained using illicit modifications, you can’t use it anymore in Link Trades or Link Battles.
- Several new changes are made for a more pleasant gameplay experience.
Addressing the download instructions for the players regarding the latest update, they are actually quite simple to follow. Users need to connect their Nintendo Switch to the internet. After that, they have to go to the HOME menu and start Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. Version 1.2.0 will then download automatically.
After you are done, the fresh version will show up on the title screen of the game on Nintendo Switch.
It seems like the new update will likely make the two Pokemon remakes much better. Some of the fans also think the same way, somehow.

I actually like the remakes, they aren't perfect, but then again no pokemon game is really. I'm actually having alot of fun with the new version of the underground.
