Just encountered something seriously odd on Random Wifi, was wondering if anyone could think how this happened:

Battle video is 61-27878-07548, turn 8 I think

Choice scarf Chandelure Vs. rocky helmet Ferrothorn, Ferrothorn uses Shadow Claw, nothing happens, and it gives the "But it failed!" message. Shadow Claw works fine afterwards though.

The only thing I can come up with is, maybe Shadow Claw's bugged in some way like RBY's 1/252 misses or 1/65536 masterball failure. Either way it's weird, lol. But since it's not a common move and I've never seen this with any other moves, it's probably a specific bug.
