Bug Reports v3 [READ ORIGINAL POST before posting]

[Meicoo]

Can't personally confirm that it works this way in-game, but the way I understand it is that when a Max move that change the weather targets a Pokemon with Sand Spit, the weather changes from the Max move first, then into a sandstorm from Sand Spit.
It seems to be happening the other way around on PS.

Why does Custap Berry not let me go first when the foe is using Pixelate Boomburst? Skip to Turn 22.

I suspect Togekiss is bugged in gen 8. Togekiss has gotten crit almost every game ive played with it. I know what im saying isn't something I can really verify and it's only a hunch but Togekiss has gotten crit way too often I feel. It's totally possible im just unlucky, but I'd really like confirmation just to be safe.

Does your Togekiss have its Hidden Ability (Super Luck)?

In this game of Almost Any Ability, my Dragapult's Neutralizing Gas doesn't seem to affect the opposing Poison Heal Kommo-o (opponent confirmed it was indeed Poison Heal). This glitch occurs between Turns 19-22, would have racked up a lot of Toxic recoil, and likely forced a switch.

Tea Time is Bugged. Berry holders still eat their berry , but the berry doesn't go away as it should, hence preventing abilities like unburden from activating.

Phantom Force's tooltip isn't interacting correctly with Pressure, reducing PP by one in the tooltip instead of two.

[18:36:14] jghkjghhjhg: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen8vgc2020-1025511727 I think this is showdown glitch
[18:38:02] north poipole: is the issue with snorlax not outspeeding gengar?
[18:38:21] jghkjghhjhg: yes
[18:38:28] jghkjghhjhg: It should
[18:39:07] north poipole: i think speed swap went away when ribombee died. i might be wrong here but bulba is incredibly vague about what happens
[18:39:55] jghkjghhjhg: that is normallly not the case
[18:40:07] jghkjghhjhg: i think the mechanic in showdown is broken because of gigantamaxing
[18:41:42] jghkjghhjhg: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen8vgc2020-1025513848 here you can see how it usually works, even if ribombee dies
[18:42:03] jghkjghhjhg: yeah if the speed swapped pokemon switches

(posting bc jghkjghhjhg doesn't have a smogon account)

TL;DR speed swap did this thing
- in the first replay, ribombee used speed swap and then snorlax gigantamaxed; lost the swap
- in the second ribombee used speed swap after the snorlax gigantamaxed; kept the swap

is this how it works in the games or is it bugged?

Playing Gen 7 Balanced Hackmons, Precipice Blades is stated as "Illegal" despite being a Gen 7 OM.

 

[Toxic Nature]

According to the Sword & Shield Battle Mechanics Research Thread, Weather Ball appears in the UI as Max Strike in rain, but really turns into Max Geyser. I don't own the game myself so I can't test it, but I assume this is supposed to work for other kind of weathers as well. However, when I tried it in sandstorm the move was actually Max Strike. Here is the replay: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen8vgc2020-1025713752

Posting on the behalf of PS user RatherSmallLadybug who has no Smogon account;

[18:44:18] RatherSmallLadybug: The bug I found is using Polteageist's Teatime move which says it consumes berries upon uses doesn't truly consume berries. It gives me the berry boost but doesn't consume the berry so I get a second berry proc when I'm low HP. Doesn't feel like this should be the case.
[18:47:13] RatherSmallLadybug: The berry that has been giving me "two berries" has been a Starf berry in National Dex AG just to give more specifics if someone does want to report this to the bug forum.
[18:49:08] #Lionyx: if you had a replay to provide this would ease the process RatherSmallLadybug
[18:49:46] RatherSmallLadybug: Alright, I'll see if I can't grab a replay of it.
[19:21:05] RatherSmallLadybug: Lionyx, here is a replay link to the starf berry teatime bug. Both of my pokemon first eat the berry on turn 1 and then again at turn 6 (polteageist) and turn 7 (alcremie)
[19:21:10] RatherSmallLadybug: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen8doublesou-1025723496

They have been able to reproduce it in Doubles OU and originally came across that situation in NatDex AG; I've seen nothing in the replay indicating that the Pokémon had gotten their berries back, but the tooltip during turns 2-5 did indicate that the berries were consumed (reflecting the use of Teatime), so I'm not sure what exactly happened there.

On doubles, Duraludon with Stalwart should not be affect by ally switch.

 

[Boomerangstepper]

Does your Togekiss have its Hidden Ability (Super Luck)?

it does not, it was using serene grace. but I thought maybe the bug is that togekiss is getting super lucked?

This is incorrect since Nuzleaf, Shiftry's pre-evolution, now learns Sucker Punch at level 50 and Leaf Blade at level 57.

Bump of this issue cus it also happened to me and I'm not sure if it been missed the first time, both can be learned via move relearner as a shiftry even.

In gen 8, swoobats hidden ability, simple is unavailable on Showdown. The reason showdown states is it is unavailable in game. Swoobat's hidden ability, simple is available in game though.

here is a video of swoobat's hidden ability being used:

you can skip to 2:20 for swoobat's hidden ability.

This is very likely a hacked Swoobat. This is not an insult at Pimpnite or an accusation of him hacking, but rather down in the comments he says himself that he got it through a Surprise Trade which has been known to spit out less than legitimate Pokemon.

If Zygarde Dynamaxes in its regular forme, then during Dynamaxing ends up in its Complete forme, the Dynamaxed sprite doesn't revert.

Dynamax mons are not immune from OHKO moves

Source that it is immune in cart :https://twitter.com/DaWoblefet/status/1203872118431240193

Just knew about this mechanics so i decided to report it..

When switching in a neutralizing gas weezing-galar, it doesn't disable plus or minus, even though it did earlier that game

 

[Derith96]

If Eiscue Noice face form is switched in in hail storm, ice face is supposed to activate. This didn't happen in this replay though (Turn 7) https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen8vgc2020-1026362825

Here's a proof from SWSH how it's supposed to activate:

Howl is not boosting allies' attack

Possible neutralizing gas + snow warning bug? Does neutralizing gas activate abilities after neutralizing gas pokemon die or switch? https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen8unratedrandombattle-1026571304 Turn 16

Zacian's Intrepid Sword activated twice instead of once on turn 19 due to neutralizing gas.
