What type of bug are you reporting? Unsure

What is the bug?
When using Abilities that cause stat stage changes, error logs appear in the battle chat:
Example:
> TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'rememberAbility')
> at Battle.runMinor (https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/js/battle.js?0.09756734343997464:2404:11)

This does not stop the stats form increasing/decreasing, but does prevent the name of the ability from appearing.
Example: Landorus with Intimidate switching in:

UTEC2024 sent out Landorus (Landorus-Therian)!
TypeError: Cannot read properties of...


Issue appears to be with Wandering Spirit's interactions with other abilities (excluding abilities not affected such as Wonder Guard)

Karthik you fixed the last one, perhaps you know what's causing this as well?

Are you able to replicate it? If so, how?
Yes, by simply triggering the effects of Wandering Spirit.

I don't know for sure yet, but I think the issue is that Wandering Spirit needs to be implemented more like Skill Swap (and therefore not use setAbility). I will double check this later.
