Pokemon Showdown bug reports

[Zarel]

I've updated the first post with a comprehensive list of things to read before reporting a bug.

I'm not going to kick you out of the beta if you don't read it (yet), but keep in mind that each useless bug report wastes my time that could be used to fix actual bugs and implement actual features.

 

[Phi]

For some reason Drain Punch has only 8 pp when it should have 16.

On an iPad:
My Abra Tricked a Life Orb on to an unpopped Balloon Jolteon. Abra received the Balloon icon, but Jolteon's icon didn't disappear.

That's how Focus Punch works: charge at beginning of turn, punch if uninterrupted.

Drizzle activates even if politoed dies from SR.

TonyMuhplaah sent out Politoed!
Pointed stones dug into the foe's Politoed!
The foe's Politoed fainted!
The foe's Politoed's Drizzle made it rain!

 

[Neb555]

Wow, two of the last three posts were about my battles. Unfortunately, I switched in my Politoed into SR because I wanted Drizzle set up, I thought that was how it was supposed to work.

I found a glitch in another battle, though. I don't have a log, but here's a summary:
Battle starts, my Infernape against Arena Trap Diglett.
I U-Turn out Infernape for another Pokemon
I try switching in Infernape multiple times throughout the match. Every time, it instead sends some message saying something about suspecting me of hacking and it changes my action to protecting instead.
I was able to switch Infernape in after another Pokemon fainted, so the match wasn't altered too drastically, but it was still noticeable.

I suspect that U-Turning out from Arena Trap didn't tell the code that Infernape was no longer trapped, so it didn't want to let Infernape switch in because it thought Infernape couldn't have left, or something along those lines.



EDIT: Found another glitch

DFMatt: curse shouldn't have failed..
Joeyboy: bug found!
DFMatt: Indeed

Bibarel used Curse and it failed I guess because it thought it was an attack and Blastoise Protected. Should just raise Atk and Def for Bibarel as he is not a Ghost. :)

When Focus Punch is broken by an attack, it simply reads "X Flinched!" instead of
"X lost its focus!
X flinched!"

When submitting text corrections, please provide a video of what the correct text looks like in gen 5.

 

[Zarel]

Also, in case it was unclear, I have indeed been fixing bugs.

Recent fixes:
- Mold Breaker now overrides Magic Bounce again (an overhaul to the targeting system broke it)
- Mold Breaker no longer overrides residual abilities like Poison Heal.
- Protect's chance of success now goes down instead of up with repeated usage
- Drizzle/Intimidate/etc no longer activate after fainting from entry hazards
- Drain Punch now has 16 PP
- OHKO moves are now implemented, with a proper accuracy model (not affected by any accuracy modifiers besides No Guard, Lock On, and Mind Reader)

 

[mcculla28]

The move Torment has no effect. It should prevent the same move from being used in successive turns, but all moves are still usable.

Assist seems to be bugged, causes the opponent to use a move instead of the user. Ursaring was asleep at the time and woke up the turn Assist was used, so that might have had something to do with it.

 

[Stratos]

here you go.

i couldn't find a better video, skip to 1:20 for the actual text.

Also, the order of passive damage after turns should be Weather > Leftovers > Burn/Poison. Currently Burn/Poison comes before Leftovers.

 

[Chieliee]

Yesterday, something happened, I called you, but you didn't have time or something. Here's what happened:

I have a Zoroark, use Nasty plot

opponent pokemon x use attack, illusion fades

I kill opponent mon.

Opponent sends in Ditto, two sprites stack, zoroark behind ditto for me, ditto behind zoroark for opponent. Here i also noticed that my sp.attack boost wasn't displayed, I hadn't paid attention to it before.

Ditto kills me with Focus Blast, I send in Staraptor.

Opponent switches to Articuno. Ditto sprite is gone, but zoroark sprite is still there

I use attack x, opponent uses U-Turn. and sends in pokemon x. Zoroark sprite is gone, Articuno sprite is gone.

yeah pretty weird. I don't have any logs or something =|

Hitmontop took damage that turn, therefore Revenge's base power should have been doubled to 120, therefore it shouldn't have been boosted by Technician.

You're going to need to be a lot more specific.

My current theory is that you spelled it wrong: the item should be named Flying Gem.
