What type of bug are you reporting? Teambuilder / Validator

What is the bug? https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen3ou-2219735945-12n92sc2f4wz9vjyml3bt9qtxtos495pw I am not supposed to be able to nickname my pokemon

Are you able to replicate it? If so, how? Dunno, it just happened, the team was pretty old so i assume it just never got detetcted

Looks like you actually used the Cyrillic letter "а" which looks identical! Confirming as a bug. https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/pokemon-nicknamed-as-other-pokemon.3753725/ is related.
