What is the bug?
Smeargle has a nonexistent move called "switch-in" in its movepool.

Are you able to replicate it? If so, how?
Open Smeargle's moves in the teambuilder and scroll down to S.

EDIT: Happens for any mon in Hackmons, too.

On my end I get the following "move" in the teambuilder. It also works for any Pokémon if you select a hackmons format

Hello, first time responding to stuff like this. This has happened to me before, and I'd just like to clarify this usually happens when you enter something like "switch-in" then move on. Also, I would like to point out it works with any tier that lets you use all moves on a Pokemon (Balanced Hackmons, Pure Hackmons, on Smeargle-not a tier, but you know what I'm talking about, and Metronome Battle).
 
this is incorrectly replicated, as it will not appear if you scroll to s.

How to replicate:

Type anything into an import and import it.
Ex: Arceus
Ability: Multitype
Tera Type: Normal
- c
- c
- primordialsea

Now, if you look at any moveset in BH or PH or smeargles moveset in any format, you will see the move.

This is all purely clientside, and does not do much, as the move will not be validated.

I found this glitch myself while looking at the moveset for Smeargle. the movie did not show up when it was typed into the move slot, it only seems to show up when you scroll down to S on the move list. Their also seems to be another move like this, "Tera Blast Ground" that can also be found in the movebuilder. I did not type in any move that would be invalid previously.
