Pokemon BDSP is nearly here, with the games being a remake of the popular 4th generation of Pokemon games, Diamond and Pearl, which were released on the Nintendo DS all the way back in 2006.

Despite the games not being released for another week, Nintendo is gearing up to release their first update, with this patch added a lot of content including opening and ending movies, cutscenes, online functionality, and post-game content.

Up until now a lot of content has been missing from the game. Pokemon Brilliant Diamond was recently leaked online to play using a modded Nintendo Switch console or an emulator, but this latest update hints that reviewers and other publications will be receiving their copies soon as the lack of content would certainly impact critic reviews.
