so first off I didn't realize petal blizzard hits your ally as well. which means I saw the shiny pop up and didn't dispatch of the ditto that had turned into my lurantis.

so on the turn I swapped salamence for lurantis, the non shiny ditto used petal blizzard and killed the shit out of it.

DEEP HURTING.

at least I didn't accidentally kill it by not paying attention

I haven't done that yet this game, though I did it with a shiny poochyena in omega ruby

i would be so annoyed

needless to say

lurantis no longer knows petal blizzard
