What type of bug are you reporting? Mechanics
What is the bug?
The ability Wimp Out is not supposed to activate if the user reduces its damage through substitute. I was playing a hackmons cup game and my Volcarona had wimp out. The opponent's pokemon moved first and put me below 75% HP, I then used substitute and Wimp Out activated.
Turn 18 here:

On prior turns, I substituted below 1/2 health and no wimp out activation occurred.
Are you able to replicate it? If so, how?
Damage a pokemon below 75% HP but above 50% HP right before they use substitute in the same turn, ensuring there is another unfainted pokemon in their party. It will cause the ability to activate. Also works with Emergency Exit:
