A noob question about elixers ( Kind of)

[missdragoon 0]

So I'm not sure if this is a bug or not ( hence why its not in the bug posts).

 

But I can't for the life of me remember if elixers are supposed to only work outside of combat in reborn or not. 

In multiple battles now ive has the message in the screenshot pop up and tell me that it won't have any use even when one of the battling poke's moves is 0/15 PP for example or if all 4 moves are missing PP but arent at 0/25 yet.

Aaaaand since i haven't played the regular games since forever and never really needed elixers ( uptil now) in reborn im not sure if its normal or not :3

 

Screenshots: Noivern missing PP in 3 moves and the elixer doesn't work

                   Noivern missing PP in al 4 moves and one is 0/15 , elixer still doesn't work.

 

Ps : this is all in battle outside of battle it works fine, Ethers work fine aswell both inside and outside of battle.

You are correct, Ethers, Elixirs, Max Ethers, and Max Elixirs ought be able to be used both in and out of combat. I tested this with a Max Elixir and ran into this same issue. Thanks for the report!
