I just found a bug.

I was ev training someone's rotom in kanto safari ev wald and saw that ominous wind was working on poliwrath which is a water/fighthing poke. Ghost moves shouldn't affect the fighting types but here it was affecting it.

Greetings, Griseous123789.

 

I would like to inform you that this works as intended and it's not a bug. Ghost-type moves are neutral against Fighting-type Pokemon, but Fighting-type moves have no effect against Ghost-type Pokemon. Therefore, Ominous Wind, a Ghost-type move, is neutral against a Pokemon such as Poliwrath, which has Water/Fighting type.

 

Here is the link explaining how ghost-type moves work. Maybe it helps you out more: https://pokemondb.net/type/ghost

Let me know if you have any further questions on the matter.

I mean that the ominous wind was working on poliwrath, this is the bug.

I have a video proof for it but don't know how to post it here.

Yes, as Equilibrium states, ghost type moves like Ominous wind affect fighting types like Poliwrath. Fighting moves like DynamicPunch or Cross Chop do not affect ghost types, such as Rotom or Gastly.

Hmm fine

I understood about it

Thanks

You may close it now

As the problem is resolved, I will now lock this topic. Have a great day!
