Water Gun charging in pokeball?

When Squirtle comes out around 1:09 or so, he charges Water Gun for less than a second before using it. This is due to buffering on the switch, but normally Water Gun takes longer to charge than less than one second. Does this mean that buffering Water Gun automatically charges it for use upon Squirtle's entry? I did this on accident, so I'm not sure of the mechanics behind it.

Also LOL @ me trying to spike MK. I got greedy.

yes there seems to some mechanic that forces the next pokemon to do something immediately (usually jumping in my case) also the amount of water that came out doesnt look like a fully charged watergun imo looks correct for the amount of time charged.

Interesting. I'm assuming this can be reversed before Squirtle comes out as well. This could use some looking into. Really situational, but the mechanics are interesting.

I HATE buffered UpB off the platform. I messed around with it and figured out the timing for it, but someone should really figure out why it happens. What specifically about how the game handles Pokemon death causes it?

I have this a lot, I just jump though. It's really stupid, it happens almost every stock :/

I'm actually more surprised that you were using Ivysaur against Meta Knight during the match.

Haha, I need practice in the matchup. Same goes for Squirtle-Marth.
