 ====June-July 2020 Wild Area News event glitches====
-When the June 30, 2020-July 31, 2020 [[Wild Area News]] event began, it contained an error in which a [[Ability Patch|nonexistent item]] was part of the item drops awarded for completing a Max Raid Battle tied to the event. The game attempting to reward the player with the nonexistent item caused a glitch that crashed the game after viewing the item drop list. This glitch was quickly fixed in two stages, first removing the nonexistent item from the item pool and then replacing it with the intended item, the [[Armorite Ore]].
+When the June 30, 2020-July 31, 2020 [[Wild Area News]] event began, (Wild Area News [[Index number]] 27), it contained an error in which a nonexistent item, ([[Dynite Ore]], which was not present in the game prior to the release of [[The Crown Tundra]]), was part of the item drops awarded for completing a Max Raid Battle tied to the event. The game attempting to reward the player with the nonexistent item caused a glitch that crashed the game after viewing the item drop list.
-While the nonexistent item glitch was being fixed, another glitch occurred which prevented any Max Raid Battles associated with the event from being initiated while the game was connected to the Internet. This glitch was removed at the same time as the corrections to the nonexistent item glitch.
+This glitch was fixed after a few hours, in two separate stages. The first stage, (Index number 28), removed the nonexistent item from the ''normal_encount'' item pool and replaced the reference to the ''bonus_reward'' item pool containing the bugged item. This did not fully fix the glitch as the bugged item was still present in the ''bonus_reward'' item pool, (despite no longer crashing players with the reference removed), and as a result it unavailable server-side, with the glitched raids being unable to be hosted or joined if the player had connected online via the [[Y-Comm]].
+The second stage, (Index number 30), removed the bugged item from the ''bonus_reward'' item pool as well, and replaced the item and references to the correct item, [[Armorite Ore]].<ref>https://projectpokemon.org/home/files/file/4212-wild-area-event-20-july-2020/</ref>
