Version 1.3.2 Update Did Not Update Move Descriptions

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Hisuian Move No Update

Since the patch of Version 1.3.2 was announced to adjust mechanics for upcoming live tournaments, the patch update strangely has not updated the Hisuian Move's descriptions to match their in-game effects

Hisuian Move Patch Update Confirmed Move Description Updates

Move Descriptions Updates

Hisuian Move Descriptions
Move Pokemon Description
Ceaseless Edge Hisuian Samurott ImageHisuian Samurott The user slashes its shell blade at the target, aiming to land a critical hit. Shell splinters left behind by this attack remain scattered under the target as spikes
Dire Claw Sneasler ImageSneasler The user lashes out at the target with ruinous claws, aiming to land a critical hit. This may also leave the target poisoned, paralyzed, or asleep.
Stone Axe Kleavor ImageKleavor The user swings its stone axes at the target, aiming to land a critical hit. Stone splinters left behind by this attack float around the target.

All 3 of the Hisuian Moves that will be updated have the innaccurate part of the description highlighted red!

Three of the new moves from Pokemon Legends Arceus for Hisuian Samurott, Sneasler and Kleavor have misleading descriptions. Unlike in Pokemon Legends Arceus, In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet these 3 moves do not have an increased critical-hit ratio, despite the description indicating the contrary. These descriptions will be updated in the next patch update, likely before Regulation D of Ranked Battle begins on July 1, 2023.
