If I remember correctly, that's actually how it works in cartridge if you hack a Mega as a regular form.
Not sure if it still works that way in Gen VII, though, but in Gen VI I'm sure it did.

so that means you can get a super-powerful pokemon that way? A Pokemon with more than 200 in both offensive stats and usable bulk?
It doesn't give it additional stat boosts. It just becomes a regular Mega Mewtwo X with Steadfast.
shouldn't battle bond greninja be always male? You can't use Ash-Greninja with a female gender but apparently u just have to use regular greninja with battle bond and female in the teambuilder and it works.
So I tried to validate this set in teambuilder just to ensure that I was right in saying that the combination of Comatose and Sleep Talk were banned...
Rayquaza-Mega
Ability: Comatose
IVs: 0 Atk
- Sleep Talk
I can't complain that teambuilder doesn't get the message across, but this seems a little much.
Same thing happens if I add another move or use a different Pokemon.
Not exactly a pressing issue but I thought I'd bring it up regardless.

Well, players need to understand it's not a valid combination :P
In my replay, I had Normalize Gengar use Entrainment on a Fur Coat Groudon-Primal, which then used Thousand Waves. It shouldn't have affected me, but it did.

You had suppressed groudon's ability using core enforcer.
So if you suppress an ability and then give it another it doesn't work?
So according to http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Curse_(move), the move Curse, when used by a non-ghost type, should fail if there is no active opposing pokemon (like with explosion or hazard damage). But on Showdown, the move works even in this scenario.
Ability suppression is an effect (which can be passed with Baton Pass) rather than an actual change of Ability.

My Smeargle in CC1v1 randbats knew a Z-Move (Guardian of Alola). Is that supposed to happen?
Bulbapedia says that Z-Moves can't be Sketch'd.
EDIT: My bad about the replay. It was a CC1v1 random battle and the Smeargle knew Guardian of Alola, Aromatic Mist, Swords Dance and Zing Zap.

The opposing Garchomp missed a Dragon Rush with +3 accuracy against my (Shed Shell) Skarmory, which should be impossible, as it reaches the 100% accuracy after only one Hone Claws accuracy boost.

You were running a decent team, and thus have the standard Unaware Shed Shell Skarmory. You can also tell this from how little Garchomp's boosted attacks did.
Oh, I didn't know that Unaware ignores accuracy boosts as well, sorry ^^
Few things I've noticed (just as a heads up, I'm using the Android Showdown Client on a Galaxy S6):
1) The app will not let me select "Brave Bird" when I try to use it with Skarmory. It just says "Bug Captured"
2) When I try to use Oranguru's Intruct on my Incineroar inside of a Trick Room, it says that it is an invalid target. I'm guessing it's because after Trick Room, Oranguru would move before Incineroar. However, does Instruct not repeat the move if it was not used immediately before Instruct, as opposed to the turn before Instruct?
3) I tried to use Comfey's Floral Healing on my Palossand on the same turn I switch it in. Can I not target the current Mon on the field, and then switch him out, therefore healing the new pokemon on the field?
Also, after cases #2 and #3, the app freezes, and will not let me select any other moves or pokemon. It just states "Invalid Target" after both, and then that's it.

Just saw this. Even refreshed and still double sprites. Really didn't understand what was said in the start about the double sprites, so if it's the same thing, kindly ignore.

Talking about sprites, I was watching this replay and turns out Dugtrio's DPP backsprite has a black background, instead of a transparent one.
Regarding Z-Status moves and Disable.
Probably a minor inconsistency with in-game, but an inconsistency nonetheless.
On Pokemon Showdown: When using Disable on a Pokemon after they've used a Z-Status move (like Z-Toxic), the status move becomes disabled.
PS! demonstration: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7ou-565196549
In-Game: When using disabe on a Pokemon after they've used a Z-Status move (like Z-Toxic), Disable fails.

I noticed a bug with the move fling. Bulbapedia states that Black Glasses, Dread Plate, Muscle Band, and Choice Band boost the power of Fling. Expert Belt boosts the power of Fling if the attack is super effective. Life Orb boosts the power of Fling but does not reduce the user's HP. On Showdown however, fling is apparently not boosted by these items. Here is a replay of me using fling on a doublade. The move should've done 80% minimum to doublade, but it looks like Showdown doesn't have it down right as the move only did 73%.

Calcs:
The Damage it should be doing.
+4 252 Atk Dread Plate Hawlucha Fling (90 BP) vs. 248 HP / 0 Def Eviolite Doublade: 260-308 (80.9 - 95.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
(260, 264, 266, 270, 274, 276, 280, 282, 286, 288, 292, 294, 298, 300, 304, 308)
Damage it is actually doing since fling is not boosted by the plate.
+4 252 Atk Draco Plate Hawlucha Fling (90 BP) vs. 248 HP / 0 Def Eviolite Doublade: 218-258 (67.9 - 80.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
(218, 220, 224, 226, 228, 232, 234, 236, 238, 242, 244, 246, 250, 252, 254, 258)
Please fix if it is indeed a bug. It might seem insignificant, but it would be pretty cool for it to work properly. Thank you.
