According to this breakdown, modifiers (attack, speed, whatever) happen in an order based on what is causing the modifier, bei it an attack, ability or whatever: https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/sword-shield-battle-mechanics-research.3655528/page-59#post-8685465 I'm wondering specifically...

What type of bug are you reporting? Mechanics What is the bug? While looking over volatiles, I noticed that there was no "noCopy" for Unburden's volatile. Is this accurate or a mistake? Because this allows you to Baton Pass Unburden's boost if Neutralizing Gas is involved, see the attached...

When a status move is bounced back with Magic Coat/Magic Bounce, or Snatched, does the move execution restart from the beginning, or go on from where it left off? If it is the former, is the move state reset (i.e. does any changes done to the move disappear upon re-execute), or is the current...

When a move changes its type to itself, does it count as the one attempt at changing type? For example, will Electrify on an Electric-type move cause Normalize to fail?

Thanks for the info, this has been addressed for a future update.

Speed Boost is implemented incorrectly? How is it supposed to work then? I used this as a reference for implementing the end of turn sequence in Polished Crystal: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User:SnorlaxMonster/End-turn_resolution_order

Rampardos is in the Erratic experience group, the fastest one that only requires 600k EXP to level up to 100.

Can't this be delayed with Neutralizing Gas?

Ah, sorry, I overlooked that detail. (I'm working on a battle engine where both things exist, hence how I managed to forget it).

Does Neutralizing Gas "turn off" upon switching out before or after Pursuit? For example, will a Moxie Pursuit user gain a boost if it faints the Neutralizing Gas Pokémon about to switch out?

Basically the same list as Bug Bite. Does eaten Custap get an one-time Quick Claw-style boost similar to Micle? Does the Micle one-time boost persist across turns if the berry holder already used a move that turn (and if so, does this also apply to Custap)?

Are you saying that *all* Sandstorm/Hail effects still apply? For example, while Swift Swim no longer works, Slush Rush does? And while the user still gets to avoid Thunder/Hurricane as if rain wasn't up, Blizzard still has perfect accuracy against Umbrella holders?

So Utility Umbrella's inconsistent behaviour makes me unsure if I understand the main post correctly and seem to have a mishmash of effects with no particular consistency. Is this below how it works? Prevents weather synergy abilities from working: Swift Swim, Solar Power (both boost and HP...

Does this mean that if Imposter procs, the Imposter Weezing will have no ability? If it gets Neutralizing Gas, will this immediately re-suppress Abilities, potentially stopping other entry abilities (again) from running in doubles?

The NG switch-out behaviour coupled with Trace was actually the main reason I asked. Sorry if it was unclear. If upon switch-out NG "unsets" before the switch-out completes, Trace -- being handled in the same priority bracket as Intimidate+friends -- should trace Neutralizing Gas. Or am I wrong?
