When uploading a background image of 3.08 MB, I get the error message saying that it is too big, and that it won't be saved because it isn't 3.5 MB or less ;-;
Also, for the longest time I've had this issue:
When I open play.pokemonshowdown.com/thehappyplace, it will load THP and create tabs for the other rooms I'm in (i.e. Tech & Code and Anime and Manga), but it won't actually load those rooms, it will just leave those tabs blank.
If I open play.pokemonshowdown.com, it will load all of my tabs fine, and join the rooms just fine, but then I am met with the join a room page, which is really annoying to have to click back to THP every time I load the page.

Im trying to play drifblim in vgc 2017 , but it says tailwind is only obtainable from previous generation , but clearly ./learn drifblim, tailwind clearly shows its an egg move and other websites like serebii says so too!
Earlier this morning it worked , but now it doesnt , is it a bug or Im missing something?
It has to probably do something with the fact that drifblim needs to learn that move from tailwind drifblim / castform from gen VI , these actually learn it from move tutor back in gen VI , so that might be why this bug is shown.

Basically: I used U-Turn on Golisopod, which activated its Emergency Exit ability. My opponent went out to Silvally-Fire. Instead of me going out to Dugtrio-Alola on the U-Turn on Turn 10, the turn ended when the opponent sent out Silvally-Fire, meaning that when I went out to my Dugtrio-Alola, my opponent was allowed a free attack as though I had simply switched into my Dugtrio-Alola. Shouldn't the U-Turn switch be completed on the same turn, as opposed to being spread out between two different turns; this seems to be an Emergency Exit related bug?

Emergency exit blocks uturn; this is correct behavior. This seems as though you hard switched out next turn, but the text is wrong with that; most likely, the code doesn't properly interact with the switch-blocking of emergency exit.
I'm trying to teach Qwilfish Swords Dance while having Aqua Jet and it's not working.
Apparently, Qwilfish can only learn Swords Dance in Gen III, and since Aqua Jet is a Gen IV move...
Doesn't transferring your Pokemon work for multiple generations although?
But you cannot transfer it backwards, as Aqua Jet is an egg move.
This was transferred all the way to 7th gen. Not backwards!
No, but you would have to go gen IV->III->VII instead of the legal III->IV->VII in order to have SD+Aqua Jet. The two are incompatible.
I thought you'd have to teach it Swords Dance in FRLG and then when transferred into Diamond and Pearl, it can learn Aqua Jet. After that you could transfer it to a later gen if you want. Does that not happen?
As I said, Aqua Jet is an egg move, so you cannot have both moves on the same Qwilfish.
Well in that case, I'll just have to go with Jolly for any game after gen 4.
I found something that's probably an oversight rather than a bug, but this seems like the best place to put it.
So, I made an alolan marowak set with the ability lightning rod, along with a cell battery. It was hit by a volt switch, but the cell battery didn't activate. Since it was immune to electric type moves, it seems to me like it would be part of the item's mechanics; a cell battery wouldn't activate if the pokemon is immune to electric. I looked it up on multiple sites like serebii, but none of them said anything aboutcell battery not activating on pokemon that are immune to electric. They usually say something like "the cell battery activates when the pokemon is hit by an electric type move" which my marowak was.
Sorry if this isn't a bug, and thanks for reading my long-winded paragraph!

Have you looked by Lightning Rod instead of Cell Battery?
Bulbapedia hints that Lightning Rod activates first, so the Cell Battery does nothing.
I thought they said on PBR that Motor Drive Electivire, as if you had any other choice, plus the Cell Battery work in combination.
When I play in gen 7 ou, some of my teams do not appear, I can not play because the team that creates for gen 7 ou does not appear.
Hi, I think I've found a bug on PS,
During an Anything Goes battle an Arceus-Ghost, which must hold a Spooky Plate, used a Z-Move on me. This, of course, means that it wasn't holding the right item. I've saved the replay and the link to the battle may be seen below.

Okay, tganks
Okay, thanks!
Z crystals also change Arceus's type, although of course they don't give the 20% power boost or change Judgment's type.
Not sure if this was reported already, but... Zygarde 50% is the only form that should be able to have ORAS tutor moves. If you break down its cells and turn it into 10% Zygarde, it loses its moveset. This means that 10% Zygarde should not be able to have ORAS tutor moves, however Iron tail is able to be used with it as of now. I don't believe this should be the case, as to my knowledge, it isnt legal in the actual games. Correct me if I'm wrong about any of this
I was confused last time on how Arceus can even get a Z move, except for they don't alter Judgement's type like I think they should.
I was just wondering if this was a bug or if Showdown hasn't been updated yet, because I can't play with a Tauros that has Sheer Force along with Body Slam, but any other ability allows him to be played.
-edit: I decided to do a little test and a hidden ability Charizard with Reflect is flat out illegal to play, I haven't tried transferring a Charizard yet, but I assume that TM moves from Red/Blue/Yellow do transfer over. It's probably like this for all pokemon that are only possible from Virtual Console transfer.

It's a little more complicated than that, and that's probably why it's bugged. With Power Construct, you can freely transform a Zygarde between 50% and 10% forms while keeping its moves and everything else about it. With Aura Break, however, you can't use the Zygarde Cube to change formes like that, so it probably can't be in 10% forme with Aura Break and have ORAS tutor moves? Marty confirm or deny
