  1. Alright, I believe that I have found a bug on showdown concerning Dragonite. While a 1 agility wrap Dragonite is already OP in Gen 1 OU, this bug pushes the limits. If an opponent is trying to drain wrap's pp by repeatedly switching out (as I understand, only possible in Pokemon stadium) and switches out on the turn that Dragonite uses the final wrap (1 pp to 0 pp), then the next turn Dragonite will be limited to use only wrap (again 0 pp at this point) due to gen 1 wrap mechanics. Instead of using struggle (since Dragonite still has pp on other moves, just not on wrap), the Dragonite uses wrap on the opponent and regains full pp on wrap. This essentially gives Dragonite the ability to sweep any team not carrying a ghost unmatched. The only other circumstance that allows the opponent a chance of defeating Dragonite is wrap missing. While this was technically present in RBY, it presented itself as a glitch (essentially giving wrap -1 pp and correcting back to the max pp value) but was fixed in Pokemon stadium.
