Wanna spice up Pokémon Scarlet? Easy! Set some personal challenges like a Nuzlocke run where if a Pokémon faints, you consider it 'dead' and can't use it anymore. Or limit your use of items during battles. You could also make it tougher by not evolving your Pokémon. Trust me, facing off against the Elite Four with what's essentially a squad of baby Pokémon will have you sweating!

Honestly, just turn off the EXP Share. It's like night and day with it off. Battles become more strategic and you can't just steamroll through the game with an overleveled team.

Just play with one hand. Instant hard mode.

If you're looking for a real challenge in Pokémon Scarlet, keep your starter in the PC! Yup, go catch the first wild Pokémon you encounter and make it your new 'starter'. It's a whole new level of tough but super rewarding.
