What type of bug are you reporting? Client

What is the bug?
Having the "ignore nicknames" battle option checked does not ignore nicknames on Pokemon hover. In both the sidebar and in the main hover area, nicknames still display.

Are you able to replicate it? If so, how?

For the developer: this would need to be done in the client in showPokemonTooltip(). Look for how this.battle.ignoreNicks is used elsewhere. All of these cases should be satisfied:
  • Opponent's nickname should be hidden
  • Player's nickname should not be hidden
  • While spectating, all players' nicknames should be hidden

Ignoring nicknames will let you see the Pokemon's name in the chat, but nicknames still appear in the battle screen for the player whose POV is being watched.

I have not confirmed this on Main since I'm busy atm, but it happens on Smogtours.

Enable ignore nicknames via battle settings, nicknames will appear in battle if they exist for the player whose POV is being watched but not in the chat.
