Hey Flash,

I was able to reproduce this in 8.2.0 Singleplayer.

Can confirm this gets rid of the Ditto's special form after the battle & also triggers the copied Diguise Ability Mid-Battle.

According to my Pokemon-Knowledge, Imposter Ditto can not copy abilities that change forms, i.e. Zygarde Complete, ZenMode Darmanitan et cetera, and the same applies to Mimikyu (also tested on Showdown & saw it doesn't work in the games), therefore this is a bug.

This does not seem to happen while battling other pokemon that have an ability which adds form-changes mid-battle in pixelmon aswell, i.e. Zen-Mode Darmanitan.
In this case the Ditto does not change form mid-battle & also doesn't lose it's special form after the battle.

Marked as "Awaiting move to internal"!

Sincerely, NotKili

Addition:

Looks like Ditto can't change forms in battle, Reference: https://gamewith.net/pokemon-swordshiel ... show/14136
Mimikyu Disguise ability is also mentioned as excluded there.

As of 8.3.6, Ditto no longer transforms into "disguise busted" form from Mimikyu, so I will close this ticket; thank you!
