Hello a ditto used transform to get my shiftry who has life orb. My setup was razor leaf false swipe thief and flash. After getting it low with false swipe I used flash so it would miss on my next poke and it used thief to steal my life orb and died because of it. Do I lose my life orb or is it a bug

 

Hello @agpk97. My apologies for the inconvenience you experienced.

 

This is how it is intended to work, so there is no bug. If you had caught the Ditto, it would have been holding your Life Orb, but I see the circumstances didn’t allow that.

We will not restore your item since it was lost to an intended mechanic of the game and would be unfair to previous players who also lost items and were denied.

 

Below, I’ve included ways of obtaining Life Orbs to replace the one lost.

 

If you have any further questions, please let me know.

Thank you for your time

Thank you for your understanding.

I’ll now be locking this thread. If you have another question or issue, don’t hesitate to create a new thread.

Have a great rest of your day.
