Gym Battles, hp regain and meter dropping

Im pretty sure charge attack meter drops if you dont dodge attacks. ok thats pretty clear right

How about defender pokemons hp getting restored mid battle. This has to be because a trainer is feeding berries correct, or is it a glitch?

i play on an older phone so im not entirely sure, some animations are bad on my phone but my health goes down sometimes goes back up. is the gym just buggy?

and dropping a pokemons health doesnt initiate their knock out quick enough. i still get hit by some attacks, sometimes they give me back the health they "stole" sometimes it doesnt

All these glitches are, I think, lag related. I see weird stuff at the start of battles with the energy bar, but that doesn't continue as the battle goes on, and I definitely gain energy when I take damage, as I'm supposed to. I think the idea of "not dodging consumes energy" is an incorrect interpretation of observations.

The gym update has definitely resulted in more weird lag-related stuff. The health and energy bars jump around as the client and server get out of sync and then resync w/regards to the state of the battle. I'm sure Niantic is aware of this and working on it. I would also wager that it was a result of attempts to fix the infamous dodge bug.
