Are the field effects going nuts?

[HUEnd 129]

So I decided to battle on Icy Field for some shenanigans but I noticed a few inconsistences, such as the field breaking when Heat Wave, Eruption, etc is used instead of becoming Water Surface. Also, the E16 description says the Rock type attacks gains a Ice typing while E15 Field Effect manual says it becomes a Ice type move.

 

I'll record a battle for this reporting soon. Thanks in advance!

 

#EDIT: There you go:

#EDIT 2: Alright, so we noticed that after the field breaking, each side goes back to the field they were standing before the battle. The opponent decided to go to the Wasteland and I went to some surfing area and that's what happened:

In the meantime...this is what happened for him:

As for the first problem, I have no idea.

 

For the second problem, I reckon this is just a change compared to E15, nothing else. So the E15 Field Effect manual is outdated. This probably doesn't apply to all field effects, but it does for this one.

After a small test, we noticed that if the field "breaks" for any reason, the resulting field will be the one that the challenged person (i.e the one on the waiting screen) was.

 

Also, regarding the Rock moves on Icy Field: I meant that what actually happens is what's said on the E15 guide (Rock moves become Ice moves) and not what's mentioned on E16 Field guide (Rock moves becomes Rock/Ice moves).

Oh, I see, sorry about that. I'm afraid I wouldn't know the reason. Good of you to show this

first issue seems to only occur in online. I've tested this in offline and field melted properly

 

 

again totally legit goomy

 

so I went to test it in online and I got the same thing + changed the current location to grand hall (so this is actually only an online bug that occurs depending on your location, in grand hall I wasn't able to freeze the field again)

 

I'm gonna test the rock moves in a bit and let you know.

 

EDIT: rock type will gain ice type in offline, I'm not sure for online yet (work fine in online but then again could be bugged again depending on the map you're currently at). Anyway I'm gonna move this to online bugs. Thank you for reporting o/
