[E18] Not Gaining Experience When Defeating Last Opposing Pokemon With a Z-Move

When I use a Z-move to defeat a wild pokemon, the battle ends immediately after displaying the message "the wild _____ fainted!" without awarding experience. This has held true against different wild species, on different fields, and when battling with traded and non-traded pokemon alike. 

 

Likewise, my pokemon do not gain experience when they defeat a trainer's last pokemon with a Z-move, causing the dialogue to skip directly to the standard victory dialogue.  Pokemon gain experience as normal if they defeat a trainer's pokemon while they still have other pokemon remaining in their party.

 

I have only been able to test this with the following Z-crystals, though I suspect that more/all of them may be similarly bugged:

Firium-Z

Poisonium-Z

Waterium-Z

Can confirm this. I was using Mimikium Z to EV train Mimikyu and noticed that it earned 0 EV points and exp when I used Let's Snuggle Forever, but would earn exp and EVs when I just used Play Rough.
