Idk, i feel like when a poke' uses quick attack it should still hit whatever poke is currently out when the move is selected, pvp and pve ofc.

 

honestly i dont know how the moves are calculated pve, but when Ratatta uses it i feel like it should still hit my vulpix or w/e is out there atm, then the poke' can be switched out?

it just clicks that it makes no sense when a move thats specifically for its speed and always going first, it should surpass the normal ability of how the "speed" stat works.

What you're referring to is the move "Pursuit" Which isn't a priority move unlike Quick Attack but will land a hit before the pokemon switches out. Quick Attack has never been had the same mechanic as Pursuit. Nor will it be customized to do so.
