That's a bit douche-y. There's a reason VGC rules ban such nicknaming schemes.
But as long as Smogon allows it, it's OK.
doom desire currently has bw mechanics, I noticed this when a swampert taking one resisted it.

Don't worry about this, Joim; I got this.
This was fixed over six months ago, but Gen 3 Wish was happening after weather damage, so that's fixed now. I had fixed the order in Gen 4 a while ago but forgot Gen 3 inherited from Gen 5 and not 4.
o.o i was playin a test game a couple weeks back and it didnt wokr properly
EDIT. just checked, it got fixed. idk what happened in that other game then...
I froze a forretress with ice beam and the subsequent hp fire didn't thaw it, I think it's because it wasn't acknowledged as a fire move since it was hidden power or something like that but I'm not sure if fire moves thaw out frozen dudes in general.

poccil's site is out of commission it looks like (under rebuild) but:

Anyway, according to Atli here, getting hit by HP Fire doesn't unthaw the target.

Smurf. will confirm.
Around turn 8, T-Tar (CB) got hit while trying to tighten its focus for a focus punch. He was then able to change his move from Focus Punch to Rock Slide the following turn.
I think that's a bug.

lol oh shit, owned :(
sorry dude, i was only relating the scenario to what ive been used to seeing since 2005 on Netbattle.
you know what they say about being raised the wrong way.
feels bad to have been lied to all this time though. almost as bad as Crystal_'s recent discoveries.

Except, it is a bug in Gen 3 and 4! Focus Punch starts trying to execute before checking if it can't. In Gen 5 it was changed to check first and then execute. You can tell it's executing because it loses a PP whether the user was hit or not prior to Gen 5, and this quirk subjects it to being Choice locked.
Gen 3; Gen 4 said:
wait wait so how exactly does focus punch work?
If you use it, get hit, you remain locked into it the next turn.. are you locked into it until you switch out, or only for that turn, or only until you get the move off?

guess that makes subpunchpass mawile a risker choice in ADV NU. Still, thanks :)
I'm sorry :(
I noticed a bug when I was playing ADV LC with a friend: synchronize isn't working. Here's a replay: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen3ubersbeta-218269421
When I switched Natu into Venonat's sleep powder, Venonat wasn't put to sleep as well.
e: Oh, sorry, my bad then

Synchronize has never passed on Sleep. It has always been para, poison, or burn.
This should be the last bug Joim, and I think I understand why it is bugged:
So if I understand the last fix correctly, this is trying to change this movetype when it should really be aimed at this movetype. The move isn't causing damage, the side condition is, and this particular side condition defines its own movetype, basepower, and format (physical, special, etc) without any help from the actual move's movetype, basepower, and format. I am unsure of how to fix this without a waste of space going towards rewriting the creation of the side condition in each gen mod, so I hoped you would know of a better way to do this. The same problem is in Future Sight of course.
