In Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet, the day-night cycle matches the real-world clock of your Nintendo Switch system. So if you're playing during the day in real life, it's daytime in the game. And the same goes for nighttime! It really adds to the immersive experience, making you feel like you're living in the Paldea region.

Actually prefer playing at night, the game looks amazing and some Pokémon only show up then. It's synced to your Switch's clock, so whatever time it is for you, it's the same in the game.

24 hours, same as the real world. Day and night in the game follows your actual time. So if you play at 2 PM, it's daytime in-game. If you play at 9 PM, get ready to explore under the starry night sky of Paldea!
