=== HLE DSP Inaccuracy ===
{{Problems|{{#vardefineecho:problems|
When using the High Level DSP (HLE), High Hat Cymbals appear to "strobe" in volume levels. Refer {{Issue|8750}}.
=== Illegible Text ===
 
Text is not legible. This can be corrected by enabling Safe Texture Cache. Refer {{issue|10705}}.
=== Flickering Lights ===
When the camera pans the ground strobes around Pokémon and trainers. Refer {{Issue|8753}}.
 
=== Texture Not Loaded on Attacks ===
This is rare and appears to be random, but sometimes attacks will create white squares instead of loading textures. This can be avoided by unchecking Store EFB Copies to Texture Only.

=== Hexagon Brothers' Colors ===
After their introductory cutscene, the Hexagon Brothers lose their color and become all black. This is only a graphical glitch and they still function correctly.

=== Crash: Greevil's Henchman and Zook ===
When the battle between Mr. Verich's (Greevil) henchman and Zook starts the game crashes. This can be resolved by enabling "Synchronize GPU thread".
