That's not a bug.
I feel like there should be a "it's supposed to work that way" message, sort of like when you try to Prankster a Dark type.
Currently G-Max Resonance from Gigantimax Lapras summons Aurora Veil for your opponent.

I heard that dynamax weights weren't loaded in the simulator and this is why the move is failing.
I tried using galarian stunfisk's new move snap trap, but it doesn't trap the opponent nor does it inflict damage every turn.
No, weight-based moves are supposed to fail against Dynamaxed Pokemon. This is intended.
Dynamax overrides the effects of Choice Specs. It is highly possible that the damage output is the same because Choice Specs boost is nearly the same as Max Move's BP. Can you verify if your Ribombee was Specs?
Once you are dynamaxed, the effect of Choice Scarf is gone so it's natural that Malamar at +1 outsped. What's weird is that Keldeo moved first on the turn it Dynamaxed which seems like the problem.

This is a confirmed simulator bug that is not present in the cartridge, during the first turn of a dynamax, choice scarf speed has an effect on move order is considered, but not on subsequent dynamax turns.

Ok, I just read that the weights are missing from the original games because the dynamax are like shadows of the actual pokemon, so they are weightless. So there's no bug here.
Thanks for the report.

If you cancel a dynamax, you can’t dynamax for the rest of the battle because the system still registers it as you dynamaxing. Even if you wanted to dynamax, cancel your move, then choose to dynamax all in the same turn, the message “Invalid choice: you can only dynamax once per battle” pops up in the chat and the timer ticks down, even if in the move selector everything seems fine; I was playing on mobile and didn’t switch to chat, it seemed like I was waiting for my opponent and then I lost for inactivity... Then I tested it in the following battles and it just doesn’t work properly

Not sure if this was already known, but now it's confirmed 100% Choice items have no effect while Dynamaxed. In addition, the idea that they are still in effect on Turn 1 is completely false, as OP tested and found the moment he activated Dynamax, the boosts for Choice items disappeared. So yeah, if this knowledge hasn't been put on the sim yet include it pls, as it nerfs the mechanic overall by getting rid of whack-ass Choice item sweeps.
Also, have the Max Move BPs actually been updated on Showdown? I heard they were, but when I hover over them they still show the old Z-move-tier BPs.

This is fixed like 2 days ago, except for the part that their effect are still active on turn 1.
The mouseover display of your opponent’s Pokemon gives more information than would be available in game. When using a Max move, your opponent can see how much PP it has, even if you haven’t used the base move yet. This lets you figure out what the base move is or could be.

With the Egg Group changes of Gen8, Ralts/Kirlia/Gardevoir/Gallade are now additionally in the Human-like Group and Vibrava/Trapinch/Flygon Dragon Group.
There is an issue with Sirfetch'd in PS right now. The signature item "Leek" boosts his critical hit ratio similar to Farfetch'd and the item stick. Leek is essentially stick renamed. The issue is that in PS "Leek" doesn't exist. Naturally I tested the "Stick" out in a test room and it doesn't guarantee crits with moves like night slash. I really hope this gets resolved soon because I want to use my duck.
For some reason, when pulling up mega stones via either /mnm or /stone the following text blurb appears:
Warning: Aggronite (or enter other existing mega stone here) is a fake mega stone created by the CAP Project and is restricted to the CAP Aggron.
I dunno if this is intentional because of the stones no longer being in SwSh, but based on the description it doesn't seem like it.
Thanks!

Court change (move): field switch reverted after Cinderance removed from battle.
Lapras’ G-Max move puts aurora veil on the wrong side of the field (should reduce damage received, not damage inflicted)
Obstagoon’s obstruct blocks all moves (including status moves), instead of just blocking attacks.
