What type of bug are you reporting? Mechanics What is the bug? Berserk gene gives normal confusion rather than 256 turn confusion (see https://m.bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Berserk_Gene). I believe this is true to Pokémon Colosseum 2 (where the shorter confusion is seen as a bug), but...

This was something I brought up in the bug reports forum, but it was suggested that I posted it here instead. I'm sure most will be aware that many moves (Pursuit, Heart Swap, Hidden Power, etc.) were cut from the most recent games: Pokemon Sword and Shield. However this is not quite true and...

While it might not influence competitive battles, it can definitely effect battles attempting to test mechanics. Showdown at the heart of it is supposed to be a simulator and making its mechanics different to the in game ones seems even more confusing to new players. Things like choice band...

I'm not sure if this counts as a bug but here goes. Silver Wind does exist in gen 8 (as do all the removed moves), it just can't be selected in battle. I understand for a new player and for almost all circumstances this would be useless or confusing, however I don't believe it should prevent...

When using Galarian weezing with a hidden ability transfer move (such as zap cannon), an incompatibility error occurs (as shown in the file). However, because weezing did not have a hidden ability when the VC games were released, koffing from virtual console receive their regular ability slot...

Original Question from Livio ElTito: How doed future sight interact with psychic terrain? The original question here was how Future Sight relates to Psychic Terrain, not Choice Specs. The Choice Specs (1.5x) boost is lost when the Pokémon is swapped out, yes. But the Psychic Terrain (1.3x)...

I haven't tested this in the main series games, so it's possible Pokémon Showdown has it programmed incorrectly, but after doing some testing (replay link here: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen8ou-1236375965-6et6dhhjeaqdxnu8lhj6wstfmhrz5g1pw) I have found that Katy's original answer was...

I don't want to rain on any gooey parades, but I thought you should know that Metronome doesn't affect the 2-3 turns where Goodra is locked into Outrage. It does work on the move, but only each time a PP is consumed.
