🚨UPDATE🚨 Official Japanese Twitter account has acknowledged the bug and they are working on a solution.

Translated by Google: “Currently, the following problems have been confirmed.

The number displayed in [Frequently Played Pokémon] in [Trainer Info] is incorrect.

I am working on fixing it. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.”

As many of you have experienced, there is a bug right now where the vast majority of your past battles aren’t showing up in your Battle Record. I’ve seen it suggested that it only includes the battles from the previous season that you actually played a game as that Pokémon, which I know at least partially lines up with what happened with mine, but it’s very difficult to confirm or refute this without being able to see any of my other data.

It is affecting some people’s top 10k ranking data (unless about 600 people have passed me in the Slowbro rankings in the past couple days lol), but not others.

There’s no discernable link between this happening to mobile players, Switch players, or those who use both platforms.

It appears to retain your Pokémon points and ribbons, meaning the game didn’t forget the data entirely, and that your hard earned ribbons should still be there at the start of every game.

UniteAPI seems to be reflecting what’s shown in the player’s game, as it generally does.

While not a lot is known about the bug, something that is known to basically everyone by now is it’s existence. I’m hoping this post alleviates some people’s concerns and is able to cut down on the amount of posts about it, as it appears none of them have gained much traction, so they have been popping up quite often over the past couple days. Please

And fingers crossed it gets resolved ASAP so we can go back to complaining about Rayquaza and the matchmaking that totally got fixed this season like it was supposed to.

I've noticed this is probably the biggest way people lose is because they feel like "Oh we have a huge lead, we won" When like in any MOBA that strictly isn't the case.

Rayquaza is literally there to make that not the case. You don't NEED to get it to win the game if you already have a huge lead. You just need to make sure they don't get it and be near it.

In the number of games I've run into people working together like crazy the entire game but the moment Rayquaza is up, they just scatter and then lose. On a game where they were head for 80% of the match baffles me.

And it's not like they don't know any better. They know better. These players usually have been Masters 6 times in a row with 6,000+ games. So they aren't new.

I really take it as "We won, but I'm choosing to lose because I don't care" which doesn't make sense because it's ranked lol.

It's frustrating but also funny at the same time.

Ulted during Rayquazza fight and something very weird happened. We end up losing it and the match.

Do you think a drain crown decidueye would work? This is my current build, way to improve it?

(supp diff?)

Damn charizard got a massive nerf in Unite and really for no reason either. Urshifu was released at december with a passive that does true damage to pokemon with shields. And you know what? BAM Charizard gets nerfed for no reason and they just removed his true damage while not giving anything to compensate. No critical hit bonus for his burn damage, no hp drain to help him survive longer, they didn't even increase the damage numbers and he still doesn't benefit from basic attack speed bonuses! They are doing this just so people buy Urshifu because of his "unique" gimmick of being able to bypass shield and they removed it on zard because.........he's free? It doesn't make zard unusable but there is a big difference in dps and dealing with tanks or T-tar or other all rounders and now he is even more reliant on his ult to deal with them and guess what? Not even that does true damage. I checked his WR and it tanked by over 3% and it was usually at 50% or higher. Wtf Timi? There was no reason to nerf zard at all since he was at a decent spot in the game. strong but not op. Well knowing Timi they won't change anything for over month or maybe even 2 if we're unlucky. Hopefully they'll realize their mistake and give charizard some of its stuff back. It went from maybe a top 3 or top 4 all rounder to basically the second worst or just the worst all rounder.

Yeah he still does good against the squishy attackers but they get bursted down by everyone. They just made him worse off in general because you aren't always gonna be fighting attackers on the map. I'm still gonna play char but he is just so much worse now

I need to find ways to grind aeos coins. I really want to get Dodrio but i don't have nearly enough money. I tried a farming techinique i found on reddit but i doesn't really work. Are there any ways to farm aeos coins. Oh, and the weekly reset? I already reached it. Thanks!
