Yeah, there have been some updates that really smoothed things out. When it first dropped, there were quite a few hiccups and laggy moments, especially when you roamed around the open world or in battles. But Nintendo and Game Freak have rolled out patches to fix most of these issues. It's not perfect, but the difference is night and day compared to release day.

I've been playing Pokemon Scarlet since it came out, and I can tell you firsthand, the updates made a huge difference. At launch, my game was freezing like every hour, and now, it's smooth sailing. Sure, there's an occasional glitch, but nothing game-breaking.

Nope, still a mess. Don't waste your time until they fix it for real.

Honestly, it runs much better now but don't expect a miracle. The game's ambitious open world means there will always be some level of performance quirks, but the devs have definitely ironed out the worst of it. It's way more enjoyable to play now!
