I noticed Swagger missing (confusion failed to have effect) but still boosting my attack by 2 stages as if it would've hit.

For I couldn't take a screen, I'll have to rule some points out:

 

1. I wasn't confused before and after the use of the move

2. My Poké was a Combusken holding leftovers, so no ability or item blocking confusion

3. Enemy Poké was a Poochyena using said move

4. There were no effects on either side of the field, so no Guard Spec or Safeguard etc. could have blocked the confusion.

5. The enemy was a two hit KO, the first hit already taking over half of the enemies HP. That means, it is unclear if it was just a visual bug or had an actual impact on the game.

6. If a bug is confirmed for said move, Flatter should also be checked as it works similar to Swagger.

 

Hope I could help.

Hello @DrUnicorn,

 

I'm sorry for the inconvenience. Swagger is indeed having the incorrect interaction when it misses. The issue has been reported to the Developers. ETA for a fix is unknown but won't be overlooked.

 

Thank you for reporting and have a nice day!
