    Its probably the controller acting up again if the drift occurs outside of the game.

    I haven't experienced any drift in the Pokemon DLC (whether using a third-party controller or the joycons), so it's probably your own joycons starting to drift, at a very coincidental time.

    The Switch joycons are known to be extremely shitty. Probably a coincidence.

    I've noticed that joycon drift tends to be more noticeable in games than out of it. For instance, I was playing Overcooked at a friend's house and using her joycons, and I didn't even notice there was drift until we got to a water stage and I kept slipping and falling into the water. It might just be light drift that's exacerbated by the game itself.
