Joined back this game after losing it normally to grab replay, and it asks me if I wanna forfeit it when i attempt to close it again
both room and replay because i'm not sure which is the most relevant one when it comes to this issue?

I can also do this over and over if I join and leave again if it helps finding out the issue

Hey, i've looked at previous posts to see if anyone had posted about this and saw similar posts, but they all involved destiny bond, which this doesn't, so I think its a different bug? There is a visual bug involving Illusion that I found while playing Broken Cup. If a Pokemon with illusion is sent out before the pokemon its copying, the game will show both Pokemon on the team once the illusion is broken, however, once the original pokemon is sent out, it will be displayed twice.
If the original pokemon then faints, only one of the sprites will grey out.
Then, once the 6th pokemon is sent out, the greyed out sprite will disappear and the non-greyed out sprite will remain.
So, even if the player has lost all 6 pokemon, the display will show them having 1 remaining.

For some reason healing wish activated several turns later on an armarouge well after the hatterene died and was switched out.

That's just how Healing Wish works. If the user doesn't swap to a heal-able mon after using it, it'll be stored until the next time the user swaps to a heal-able mon.
Apologies if this is in the wrong spot, buuuuut...
While playing on cart tonight, I noticed an interaction that works incorrectly on PS. Namely Rapid Spin/Mortal Spin vs Glimmora's Toxic Debris.
How it works on Showdown: Rapid Spin hits Glimmora, gets Speed up, removes hazards, Toxic Debris activates and spreads a layer of Toxic Spikes, Glimmora faints (if Rapid Spin does enough to KO).
How it works on cart: Rapid Spin hits Glimmora, Speed up happens, Toxic Debris activates and spreads a layer of Toxic Spikes, Glimmora faints (if Rapid Spin does enough to KO), all hazards on your side are removed.
I hit my record button on my Switch a bit too late and wasn't streaming the battle, so the full interaction wasn't recorded. But if anyone wants to hmu to help re-record it for proof, I'll be glad to upload video evidence of this.
Edit: Video being uploaded now. Will update again once it is finished.
Edit 2: Video is up.

It looks like on showdown it is identical to the cart when I just tested it here. And I think it has always been that way if I'm not mistaken?

They must have patched it a while ago, I remember seeing it from my own view and from Joey's videos where he'd complain about it not working the way we see it now. I wonder when it got fixed.
Greetings, in this battle my glimmora didnt poison the steel tera flutter, my ability is corrosion, in a previous battle happened the same with a kingambit

BUG STATUS: NOT A BUG - Corrosion only allows you to poison with poison-inducing status moves, i.e. Toxic or Poison Powder. Steel-types are still immune to Poison attacks. (Kris)

I would like to report a bug relating to Infestation. It looks like it is possible to avoid it using Substitute.
Turn 18 to be precise:
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9vgc2023regulationc-1832943223
Tried it again:
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen91v1-1832953392
BUG STATUS: NOT A BUG - Substitute silently removes any partial trapping (effects of bind, clamp, wrap etc.) on the user. (urkerab)

Unsure if this is a bug so I thought I’d ask. Does zoroark disguise itself as a terastalized Pokémon? And if so, does it still appear terastalized after the illusion is broken? https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9randombattle-1833039161.
I assume it doesn’t work like this in game but haven’t tested it

Potentially something weird going on w transform in gen 3. When Smeargle uses transform, sometimes its Speed stat is reduced from what it originally was as well as some odd damage rolls. Check these three replays:
In this replay: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen3ou-1833567510-2wks1kijfaszyq5rhznscj0kkyquwc6pw
My Smeargle Transforms into the opposing Forretress on t5, we screw around for a few turns. On t12 when I switch out, i hover over my Smear's speed and it's 243, not the 273 that it should be.
To show it is not a visual bug, here's another replay:
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen3ou-1833908082-lf9xrtrfsqn61ip0s3k81ivl766xjyupw
By Sand confirmation and a couple of turns from t8-t15, the Zapdos is faster. After my Smear KOed the Dugtrio on t5 and I switched out, the speed changed to 272 when I hovered over it for Smeargle. The Zapdos is 273 Speed, so it should be a speed tie as Smear also should have 273 Speed. Instead, the zapdos is faster in 15/15 speed checks (every sand turn and wins every speed tie), which is statistically very improbable. Here's the overlay for the Speed:
For context, this is what it should be:
To show its not just the Speed here's another replay: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen3ou-1833905177-urjhtbgcdzgeoh2nzxzqbqhpfla1j9vpw
On t6, Dugtrio took 92% or 204 HP from a non Choiced Earthquake from Smeargle. the damage roll is 252 Atk Dugtrio Earthquake vs. 40 HP / 0 Def Dugtrio: 206-243 (93.2 - 109.9%) -- 62.5% chance to OHKO. It should not be able to do 204 damage. Smeargle has 31 Attack IVs and a Jolly nature and the Dug has 31 Defense IVs, so it shouldn't be an issue. What happened here?
EDIT: I think I know the issue -- Smear is importing the IVs from the opponent. They overwrite the IVs that it should have when it switches out. That is why my Smear has 157 SpDef and 272 Spe -- the Dugtrio has 30 SpDef IVs and 30 Spe IVs, so when Smear switches, it keeps those instead of the ones it should have. The Smear has 243 Speed bc the opposing Forre must have had 0 Speed IVs, and when I switched, it carried over. This shouldnt be how Transform works, as when you switch, you shouldnt maintain your foe's IVs. This still doesn't explain why I was doing below min rolls as the Transformed Pokemon though, so any help here would be great
Thanks!

I would like to report a Bug regarding Natural Gift. It was discovered during a Draft battle but i was able to reproduce it in National Dex (OU).
Garchomp used Natural Gift while holding a Yache Berry against Gliscor. According to the damage Calc it should do around 69-80%.
252+ Atk Yache Berry Garchomp Natural Gift (Ice) vs. 248 HP / 240+ Def Gliscor: 240-284 (67.9 - 80.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Poison Heal
But in this battle it did only do 36%. It happens in Turn 71 of this replay.

Edit: It seems to be fixed. Just want confirmation: was this a bug or what happened in that Replay?

Glimmet and Zorua-Hisui are showing up in the teambuilder as illegal in LC following April's tier shifts. This is a graphical glitch (the teams still validate properly), but it is already giving less experienced players the perception that these Pokemon are banned from the format.
Hi,
Was testing for a draft with my friend and found a bug with natural gift. Was running yache berry natural gift, but instead of acting like an ice type move, it seems to be acting like a water type move. It shows ice type in the move preview, but acts like water. We did some more test battles, replays here:
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9natdexdraft-1836333437
When Salamence terrastalizes to fire type:

Retried the battle with Pomeg berry, and that works fine.

I'm reporting a bug with teambuilder on VGC 2009, VGC 2010, VGC 2011, VGC 2012 and VGC 2013 format. It is not possible to see moves in the Moves section since all moves are labeled as Illegal. The bug concerns Moves section only because it is possible to search Pokémon by moves and Validate recognizes legal and illegal moves. Screenshots below are taken on VGC 2013 format but the same bug occurs on the other mentioned formats. Thanks for your help!
