The Tyranitar user targeted the empty slot on the opposing team to avoid the attack drop from King's Shield, nothing wrong here.

Bug - Blissey and Cloyster are unable to use legal moves in Gen 2 OU.
I am trying to make a gen 2 OU team with a Blissey yet for some reason I can't give Blissey the moves Soft-Boiled, Heal Bell, Light Screen, Toxic at the same time even though that has been a legal moveset everywhere else I have checked. I also have a similar problem with Cloyster in gen 2 OU rules as well. I'm trying to run Rapid Spin, Spikes, Surf, and Toxic yet the system is saying that's illegal for gen 2 OU as well. The error given is -Blank can't learn Surf because it's incompatible with another move. Yet the movesets are both legal in every other checked source for gen 2

AG bug that happened in this game (most likely due to species clause being implemented in most metas) to do with a recentish update that essentially takes notes of Pokemon sets (which I call the "note-taker" in the explanation):
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/anythinggoes-279063941
Explanation:
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/anythinggoes-279063941
Explanation:
The opponent (Messi) uses two Xerneas, one of which we determined to be scarfed after it outpaced Darkrai:
There were no boosts on the Xerneas and Darkrai's speed was 383 so the only way it could outspeed was with a scarf.
Soon after, he switches into something else then back into Xerneas which we assumed was the same one due to what the note-taker told us:
As you can see, it was unclear without the note-taker whether this was the same Xerneas or the other one. The note-taker told us it had already used Moonblast so it must have been the same one that outsped Darkrai as the other one had not been used yet.
Despite the note-taker saying that this was the same Xerneas, Messi proceeded to do this:
The note-taker told us it was the same Xerneas as the one we determined was scarfed but the Xerneas proceeded to not be choice locked AND consume its hold item which was a Power Herb. The only logical explanation is that this is the other Xerneas and the note-taker is bugged.
Or Messi is a hacker... but I doubt it.

No such thing as battle hacks in PS.AG bug that happened in this game (most likely due to species clause being implemented in most metas) to do with a recentish update that essentially takes notes of Pokemon sets (which I call the "note-taker" in the explanation):

The note-taker has no more knowledge about Pokémon identity than you yourself have. It's suggested that you ignore it altogether when Zoroark is in play, or when any of Species/Nickname Clause is disabled.
When i try to move teams i get a message saying, "Error: A corrupted team was dropped." I can import and export teams and I've exported a team to another person for them to import on to their PS and they can move teams around and not get that error message but i do. I've been getting this message with all my teams.

Sheer Force (for whatever reason) negates the effects of Red Card. (It's supposed to be like this, I think)
Marty edit: It's the second "Not Bug", actually.

OK I just encountered this while playing ~spooky~ cup, my opponent had a Zoroark on the field disguised as a Beheeyem, when he brought his real Beheeyem out alongside it at the end of turn 2, it made the team preview section glitch out and replace the Sigilyph with another Beheeyem, so there were two Beheeyem next to each other in team preview and no Sigilyph (which wasn't chosen in the battle).

Question: why not? There are no cartridge restrictions on this seemingly arbitrary limitation.
I believe i found a small bug.
It also failed with these moves: Knock Off, Roost, and Earthquake. I get that you could do it with each individual tier, but it still should be fixed.

The syntax for dexsearch was recently changed to add a token specifically for searching "OR". The command you're looking for is now:I believe i found a small bug.

Code:
/ds defog, ou | uu
It's a ruleset enforced for all Smogon and VGC formats, except for Anything Goes, because it creates misleading information with regards to abilities and other in-game messages, especially in Doubles. (Which one of these MR. AWESOME is the one holding the Air Balloon? Which one has Intimidate? Nobody knows)
If you don't like it, you can always play Anything Goes
Is it not possible to add parentheses text next to the name of the Pokemon when such abilities are activated, just like how names are displayed next to nicknames?
"Opposing MR. AWESOME (Landorus-T)'s Intimidate"
I suppose I could play Anything Goes, but I also could offer a suggestion for what I believe can be fixed.
The only problem I see to this is allowing two species of the same Pokemon with the same name, but that's only an issue in AG.

No. On the cartridge it's impossible to know which one was which, so we can't do so here either.

My team builder isn't loading and when ever a pokemon is dt'd it says "illegal" to the left where it should show what tier its in, Someone else in the ou room said they were having a similar problem but they fixed it by refreshing, I had the problem 2 hours ago but i got off, i came back and its still happening, I've tried refreshing but nothings helping D:

i found out i can load moves for teams i've already made so it has nothing to do with my internet being unable to load the mons

With a Sheer Force pokemon with life orb, the recoil from the life orb is being applied still
Did you use a move that was not boosted by Sheer Force such as Earthquake?
Geomancy and Curse are not snatchable. Shell Smash is.
