Pokemon Scarlet and Violetfans think the games missed an opportunity to make the dorm rooms much better than they actually are. While players wait forPokemon Scarlet and Violetto receive DLC, there are some missing aspects to the core games that fans still have mixed feelings about.
InPokemon Scarlet and Violet, players start out the title the usual way, with receiving their first Pokemon and beginning their journey to catch ‘em all. However, unlike other games, these put players in the position of being a student at a massivePokemon Academy, where students can attend classes, meet NPCs, and spend time in their dorm room.

Unfortunately, the dorm rooms inPokemon Scarlet and Violetleave something to be desired, according to players. Reddit user TheDarkpekka took to the site to discuss their idea with fellow players, suggesting that the dorm room should be decorated as the player progresses through the title. Having some small indicator of each major achievement made in the game in the player’s room would be a nice detail, but other fans suggested not leaving it at that. Some wanted to see the ability to buy items to decorate one’s room, while others suggested being able to display some of thesnapshots Pokemonplayers take or those they receive after defeating gyms and other major achievements.
As some in the comments indicated, it seems many players exited their dorm rooms and never looked back, as there’s nothing to do there. Having a customized base of operations would likely have drawn the attention of at least some players back to the dorms, or given them an opportunity to show off their customized look to friends via Union Circle. In any case, several fans pointed out that prior games have offered various means of customizing the player character’s bedroom, orSecret Bases inPokemon Ruby and Sapphire.
While there’s new content coming toPokemon Scarlet and Violet, it doesn’t seem likely that the player’s dorm room is something that will receive many - or any - changes. It’s not as pressing a matter asPokemon missing fromScarlet and Violet, and all eyes will be on the developer to see if the DLC has a smoother launch than the core games, which were riddled with performance issues. While it may be too late to see any meaningful improvements to the dorms inPokemon Scarlet and Violet, hopefully the developer considers bringing back ways for players to make their world unique in future releases.
