bug report Dancer Ability

[Maxxetto 2]

Hello, I am writing this in order to report a bug that I found, wich currently I have only tested it in the E18.2 version.

---

 

• Issue: Dance Ability not working properly in certain occasions.
• Priority and Severity: Medium Priority and Low Severity
• When does it happen: always.
• Bug description: The ability Dancer seems to not behave properly when triggered with certain types of moves. As an example, let's take a pair of two Pokémons in a double battle: Lilligant and Oricorio. For the first three turns, Lilligant will use only Quiver Dance, while Oricorio is free to use any moves, even RevelationDance. Thanks to the Dancer ability, Oricorio will mimic Quiver Dance, then attack with the chosen move. When Lilligant uses Petal Dance in the other turns, the bug happens: the Dancer Ability will make Oricorio mimic Lilligant's Petal Dance: after attacking with Petal Dance, Oricorio won't use the chosen move but will instead proceed to use Petal Dance again, ending its turn and entering the confusion state (due to not having anti-confusion ability). Not only this, but if Petal Dance is (and will be) re-used, the same thing happens, but this time: the first usage of Petal Dance from Oricorio (mimicked by the Dancer Ability) will also skip any Confusion debuff checks.
• Steps to reproduce: Use Oricorio and any other Pokémon with Petal Dance in a double battle. Make sure the other Pokémon is able to attack first. Even if you select any move for Oricorio, he will use Petal Dance twice in the same turn (confusing itself). Further usage of Petal Dance mimicked by the Dancer Ability will skip confuse checks. 
• Bug tested in following versions: 18.2
• Extra Notes: Nothing remarkable, this bug is not game breaking but can definitely annoy some players due to changes in strategies.
