One of the long-standing struggles of any Pokemon player has been the PC usage. Your PC is where all the Pokemon you’ve captured are stored if your Party is full. In earlier games, this could feel like a chore. You had to go all the way to the Pokemon Center and boot up your PC in the corner to get the latest ‘Mon you just caught. With the release of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, many players hope the option is smoother and faster. With the advancement of gameplay technology, it seems we’ve finally reached the best option. Here’s how to access the PC in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.

How to access the PC
Technically speaking, you don’t really have a PC to access anymore, not really. Shocking to know, taking away such a main stable of the games after decades of it being the same. However, the good news is this really is MUCH easier.
The boxes to access your captured Pokemon and transfer to your main party are now in the Main Menu! Isn’t that amazing!? All your Pokemon Party needs and PC functions are now immediately available by pressing the Main Menu button. After pressing the button just go to the label that says Boxes and there you go!
Finally, all of your caught Pokemon are available anywhere anytime! It feels like a miracle for long-time players. No more running off from where you were all the way back to the nearest Pokemon Center. Even better, you also have the option to swap out your newly caught Pokemon into your party first thing after catching it. So you don’t even have to boot up the boxes if you’re already keeping up with who you want in your party! Finally, the days of running back and forth to the PC are behind us.
