I just got hit with it an hour ago. I dodged EQ, damage showed....then immediately rolled back to correctly dodged rates. This is instant death for glass cannons though. Until it's fixed they are basically useless.

Of course they thought to fix it.

Clearly it is a much deeper problem than we understand and they are revamping the gym system very soon, so what is the point of dumping tons of time into fixing a bug for a system that is about to be thrown out?

Its not difficult to fix. Just assume there is a succesful dodge, and then if not add full damage instead of other way around.

How the dodge bug seems more annoying for now:
Dodged, and the server records the dodge successfully, then it reverts the dodge while making the Pokémon faint if possible, after a while, it reverts the "reverted dodge", which may trap you in a loop.
However, at least it is smoother to switch Pokémon for now.

Don't forget that the clock keeps ticking, and you cannot dodge or use charge attacks until both Mon have fainted.

i am pinning a lot on this gym rework I am the last mystic is that active in the gym scene in my area and I am getting tired of having to take down level 8 gyms every morning just to claim a few coins. I've just about had enough.

The dodging bug isn't helping it is the most effective defender in the gym atm. It claims more of my revives and potions then any other mon.
