When teaching a Pokémon a move using the "Use TMs to learn moves" option on the status screen, if the last TM on the list is used, the cursor will highlight a blank space on the list after teaching the move. This is due to the used TM disappearing from the list, but the cursor not adjusting to highlight the TM above it despite it becoming the last one in the list.

During [[Tera Raid Battle]]s, if a player faints while the effects of a temporary stat boost from a cheer are active, then the stat boosts will be preserved and permanently applied for the rest of the raid after respawning. This permanent effect does not show as a visible buff in the Battle Info menu unlike the normal cheer effects.

=====Terapagos battle oversight=====
===== Terapagos battle oversight =====
During the battle against {{p|Terapagos}} in its Stellar Form, if it is confused by a move such as {{m|Dynamic Punch}} and then breaks its own barrier due to confusion damage, the player can then knock out Terapagos early by dealing enough damage. If this happens, the game will put the battle in an unwinnable state, as the battle script has Terapagos create another barrier, but as its HP was effectively depleted, it is no longer recognized as an active participant of the battle.
