Transferring Max Mushroom keeps the original Pokemon G-Maxed

[Dringodingo]

After a Pokemon has evolved with the Max Mushroom you can transfer it with out reverting back to normal. The new pokemon holding the item will not evolved until the game is reloaded. This seems like unintended behaviour. Seems like it would also work with mega stones but I have not been able to test this.

Wait, so the Pokémon given the Mushroom doesn't evolve until you reload, and then the old Pokémon keeps the G-Max, even after the reload?

[Dringodingo]

Yes that's correct

still occurs

Would like to add that this bug also apparently allows a duplicate of your form changing item to drop, for example having only one mega aggron on your team and transferring the Aggronite to another pokemon will allow Aggronite to spawn in the shop again.

It also causes some extremely weird knock-on behaviors (which may be limited to double-transformed fusions?): transferring Gyaradosite off of a fused Primal Groudon/Mega Gyarados not only doesn't affect the Mega, it causes it to semi-permanently lose the ability to deactivate the Mega at all. The menu ability will appear, but using it will only cause the menu option to go away, where it will stay until you also deactivate the Red Orb - but if you then activate the Gyaradosite, nothing changes, and you can't reactivate the Red Orb until you first deactivate the Gyaradosite again... which still changes nothing.

Are Mega Stones still transferable?

Currently on live, it's possible to get mega stone rewards for Pokemon that have already mega evolved, i.e. Charizard/Mewtwo X getting the Y stone or a double Mega fused Pokemon getting the other stone. The only way to switch mega forms, if you encounter that scenario, was transferring stones in between waves. Where you would transfer the stone you want to another Pokemon, deactivate the form you don't want, transfer that unwanted stone to another mon, then transfer back the stone you want, all within the rewards screen.

Might be worth investigating and if an issue to create a new one. I myself don’t have the bandwidth right now
