August 6 is the End of an Era for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

A legendary Pokemon Scarlet and Violet event is officially over for good on August 6. Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have seen the end of multiple features this year, starting with no new seasons after Season 41, Pokemon Champions taking over as the main VGC hub, and recurring events coming to a close. While this is in preparation for the launch of Pokemon Winds and Waves in 2027, it can be sad and destabilizing for long-time players given that Gen 9 has been around for almost four years now.
