leftovers bug

[Ikap94]

so i believe there is a bug with flare blitz and leftovers. when i use the flare blitz, i lose some health from the recoil and after that i lose some health from leftovers too instead of recover it.

Maybe you have won the match and your pokemon's hp was restored right? If you poke is holding leftovers it should happen.

oh that's not a problem, just an early recoil after using Flare Blizt, after that, Leftovers did his job. Check more about it Here.

That's just a display glitch. I believe how it works is the following:

1. You use Flare Blitz. The game detects that you've won, so it automatically updates your HP to how it should be after the battle ends at the same time that it drops the Golbat's HP to 0.

2. The game then sees you take Flare blitz recoil and updates your health to how it should be after the damage.

3. The game then activates Leftovers, and updates your health to how it should be after the heal.

 

At 2, because your health is already updated to post-battle, it makes it look like you actually take damage a second time with Leftovers value (1/16). However, you did not take more damage than you should have taken, it's purely a graphical glitch.
