Somebody came up in NDOU with that replay, they thought the turn 8 Pursuit asked weirdly so I'm reporting that for them.
Kennedit: someone tested this a few times here if that helps give more information:

It seems like after a pokemon is revived by revival blessing, the first time they are switched in, they are able to switch out freely even if the opposing pokemon uses pursuit. If they are switched in after escaping pursuit the first time, they are hit normally.
BUG STATUS: FIXED (#9375)

Hello! Realizing a weird mechanic happening with Rayquaza's Air Lock and the activation of protosynthesis abilities after Sun is up. If Rayquaza comes in on a sun setter, and then a protosynthesis pokemon enters the field, after Rayquaza leaves the field and sun goes back up, the protosynthesis ability does not activate.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9ubers-1896067156-2g8bt37yhnn5fvs7kub8tsu58pgg4scpw
You can see this occurring here. Rayquaza KOs Koraidon, and then Flutter Mane comes in to revenge it. Rayquaza then leaves the field, and sun goes back up. However, Protosynthesis does not activate.
To confirm this is not a visual bug, we tested this with Scarf Chi-Yu, who generally outspeeds Flutter Mane outside of Sun, but underspeeds it in Sun after a Protosynthesis boost to Speed. The given EV spread on Flutter should allow for the speed boost, and yet it is outsped by the Scarf Chi-Yu.
Not sure if this is how it works in game, but just wanted to point it out regardless. This may also occur with Cloud Nine, but that has not been tested yet.

Me and Nyx tested this on cart (using Golduck instead of Rayquaza for conveience) and while proto did not activate when Golduck was in, as soon as Golduck switched out, it did activate correctly.
EDIT: We also tested, and Cloud Nine does not make protosynthesis wear off if it proc'd due to the sun activating, it only wore off when the sun wore off. Video of this will be coming.

I did a bit of testing on my Switch and found that Protosynthesis should not deactivate if a Cloud Nine Pokemon switches in. However, on Showdown, this is what Protosynthesis does.
Test battle (on sim):
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9ubers-1896099523-yskmve9v5d04ucswiy3omut7q4ilh4gpw
(The stats of the Pokémon in this test battle are identical to the stats of the Pokémon I tested with in-game.)
On the Switch, I used the Koraidon that you get at the start of the game, and it has 188 Speed, and a Golduck with Cloud Nine, with 152 Speed. I encountered a Scream Tail with 142 Speed as its highest stat, meaning Speed got Proto boosted. However, when I switched Golduck in and attacked, Protosynthesis was still active and Golduck was outsped. I also switched in Koraidon afterwards, and it was also outsped.
Pics and clips from Switch:
1. Koraidon's stats
2. Golduck's stats
3. Scream Tail's stats
4. Korai getting outsped turn 1 (it does on sim), Golduck getting outsped (it doesn't on sim), Golduck switching out into Koraidon and Koraidon getting outsped (it doesn't on sim)
Moral of the story: Protosynthesis is one of the weirdest behaving Abilities in the game.

expanding on this, i was just playing a gen5lc game and the same thing happened to me, but with forewarn:
Very sorry, can't seem to find a copy of the replay, and this won't let me share HTML (I hit download instead of save and upload) but in random roulette which went into Gen 1, stat boosts don't seem to work properly, at least not visually, and stat drops seem to display the opposite (didn't think to save a replay or a picture, but figured I'd point it out all the same). For the record I'm using the mobile version so that could definitely play a role
BUG STATUS: CONFIRMED There is already a fix for it in the works. Thanks!

Hello I had a battle
Link: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen91v1-1897166084
I really want to know why my hurricane failed, thanks!
Also: Im posting this in glitches because i went to help and 1v1 and no one could answer my question :p so thanks in advance!
I'm assuming you're choiced... Dancer actually locks you into the move you copy, so any other moves you use will fail. (If it's a move you don't know, the lock will go away at the end of the turn.)

if you had a Choice item (I'm assuming Choice Specs), then Fiery Dance counts as the move you locked into, so Hurricane will fail as you are already locked into the Fiery Dance used via Dancer.
Saw this in Pokeaim's new UU video. While Battle Bond Greninja is its own form, it is visibly the exact same as Torrent/Protean Greninja and shouldn't be revealed until Battle Bond activates.

Visual Bug in RBY. Low Kick in battle displays the wrong gen text for Gen I, displaying the weight factor in its BP. Weirdly the accuracy matches gen I. After testing and looking at the damage calculator, it appears to be a simple visual bug and not a major mechanic error. Screenshots here:

Hi, I forgot to save the replay but I had a weird interaction with dancer:
I had a gardevoir against a psychic type oricorio, I traced dancer but when the oricorio used quiver dance, I didn't copy it. I read the ability description on bulbapedia and from what I understand, it should have been copied. The copied quiver dance (if it had happened) however shouldn't have been.
Thanks in advance !

Was your Gardevoir scarfed? (Or specs against a slow Oricorio?) If you had already locked yourself into a move, you can't copy moves with Dancer unless you're copying the move you're already locked into.

Zoroark, when disguised as greninja-bond has a different sprite than greninja-bond regularly has, making it possible to tell them apart.

adding , all to a /as search follows up with an error message. Applies to more than this example.

If I Trick an Ability Shield onto Regigigas in the presence of Neutralizing Gas, shouldn't Slow Start reactivate? It works on other abilities, like Truant, and Prankster. Also, removing Weezing causes Slow start to reactivate. https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9doublescustomgame-1901204582
When Chloroblast is used on a Pokémon using Protect, it cuts the HP of the user on PS when it doesn’t on cart.

In this game Zamazenta-C's Dauntless Shield activates twice because it gets Skill Swapped at some point. Apparently that's not how it's supposed to work.

There's a bug in SV that doesn't have parity on Showdown; falling below 50% HP due to Confusion damage doesn't activate the Sitrus Berry in-game, but does on Showdown. This might not seem terribly relevant, but I nearly lost a match because of it on-cart
BUG STATUS: CONFIRMED - Mechanics (Client)
yeah this has been known for some time and a fix has been in the works

It was random battle but I believe Gardevoir was scarfed indeed and moved before the quiver dance. Thank you for your answer !
The damage calculator doesn't take terrain into account with tera blast

Hello minor bug report again, this time for Gen 5. I'm not sure who is ever going to use Seperior or Girafarig often in their tiers, but it seems that their egg moves have bypassed their filters (since only XY and afterwards could they pass both egg moves together)
Both Girafairg and Serperior only have their egg moves as shown:
BUG STATUS: NOT A BUG
these are field group so just have smeargle as dad

Bug: Simple not working in Gen 4; found while playing random roulette
As seen in the replay I used curse and it only affected my stats once instead of double
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9randomroulette-1904602384-kbr1e6gl1lu2xrpmcasyczq3wbdsmiepw
BUG STATUS: NOT A BUG, In Gen 4, Simple doubled the effectiveness of stat boosts, but visually the boosts would increase by their normal rate. If you were to have used an attack with the Bibarel after using Curse it would have had a +2 attack boost applied during damage calculation (Karthik)
