Pokemon Scarlet & Violet is finally out and now available on Nintendo Switch. Apart from new Pokemon, players will also come across some new and improved features. One such feature players are enjoying is the Multiplayer option as known as Union Circle. With this option, you can join your friends to do several activities with them. If you are new to the game and unaware of this Multiplayer option, then we have got you covered. In this guide, we’ll walk you through all the aspects of how a Union Circle works & how you can use it in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet.
How does Union Circle Work in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet?
As mentioned earlier, Union Circle is a Multiplayer option in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet. This feature is only available once you play the 1-hour long tutorial and get to your first Pokemon Center. Once you have done that simply head to the Center and link with your friends to play the game. You can not only wander around the Paldea region with your fellow trainers. But also go on Tera Raids, Trade, and even battle against other Pokemon in the game. For those who are unaware, only 4 members can be in one group.
In order to make this happen simply head to your nearest Pokemon Center and interact with the yellow Union Circle. Or you can always visit the Poke Portal and access the Union Circle from there. Players can join the other trainer’s party or even host one by themselves. Apart from the Offline Multiplayer mode for nearby friends you can even link with other players over the globe by using the Online Multiplayer mode. Now you know how a Union Circle works in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet. However, if you are unaware of how you can use the Union Circle in the game, then scroll down for steps.
