[Known/Fixed]Destiny Bond not working.

[Anstane 71]

I was fighting Titania on my Ice Mono and I got to Scizor. My plan for it was to use Froslass and a Focus Sash to take it down with a Destiny Bond.

 

However, when Mega Scizor took down Froslass, it didn't faint alongside Froslass.

 

There were no actions taken by the Froslass after the Destiny Bond was put up, meaning it should have been a double KO.

 

The field was Fairy Tale, the Pokemon in question were Froslass and Mega Scizor.

Happened to me as well. I already reported it to the minor error section. I even tried it with Zekrom battle and didn't work.

This appears to be less of an issue with who is using the move, and more a misunderstanding on how Destiny Bond works. I had been under the impression (And indeed, it is how it was programmed in Essentials/Reborn) that the Destiny Bond Effect ended at the end of the round, whereas it is in fact on your next move yes. Despite my best efforts, it is still for some reason resetting at the end of the round, but I'll continue to look into this to see if I can fix it.

Marcello, did you managed to resolve the Destiny Bond issue in time of the  17.1 version?

While I can't take credit for it myself as Amethyst figured it out when I was stuck, I can confirm that this issue has indeed been resolved and should be working as intended in the Public Release.
