Hey, something really weird happened in Platinum to me a few hours ago. I was fighting a double battle against the computer, and sent out my Alakazam and someone else. I switched, they used Pursuit. Killed me in one hit. Then it said that rain had started to fall. Then it said that all the pokemon were getting hurt by their abilities (i.e. (paraphrasing) Scizor was damaged by Technician)). That damage was only like the smallest of slivers on the damage bar. THEN it said that it was sunny! And all the pokemon took their turns getting damaged by their abilities. THEN IT WAS A SANDSTORM. Hurt by abilities again. Then it hailed. Abilitydamage.
Everyone in the battle only lost a tenth of their HP, but it did this after every ensuing turn until the battle was finished.
What the hell happened?
