Minor shoddy battle glitch

Jassim

This is a glitch based on the move pursuit. A log cannot show this but I have noticed it.

On wifi when you choose a pokemon to switch to and you get pursuited and killed it automatically goes to that pokemon.

In my case on shoddy I had a starmie, the tyranitar used pursuit on me and i chose to switch to gliscor. When it died it took me to the switch menu and allowed me to choose another pokemon.

I was told by panamaxis to post this glitch I found here. Thank you for any solutions people might have.
 
Yes i can confirm this.

This goes to the disadvantage of the pursuiter because if their opponent expected a different move for the switch in, they now have a chance to change their minds. Wi-fi doesn't have that
 
This happens everytime; I've noticed it too, but are you really going to switch to anything different? I would assume you're switching in a counter, which means that would be the Pokemon you go to whether it's switching in on an attack or after a KO. The glitch seems really trivial.

Colin and bearzly aren't fixing anything on SB1, but this is something that I wouldn't mind seeing corrected, if it isn't already, for SB2.
 
well its not always trivial. Say you were switching out a blissey from tyranitar and you were going to a forrestress. After your blissey switched out and died you noticed that it had leftovers recovery. Now you realize tyranitar might be one of those flamethrower ones so you switch in another pokemon instead.

It could be the same with celebi in on scizor, you switch out to a zapdos and die, notice it has no leftovers, so you safely switch in lucario to SD up. Meanwhile you would NEVER switch in lucario blindly on a scizor, so you get a huge advantage.
