    I basically play hackmons so there are always some ideas that i am testing and it doesn't work as I imagined.
    This one is about me first. Please test it for me. Much appreciate!

    testingfsk sent out Thundurus!
    ahk sent out Mega Tyranitar!
    The foe's Mega Tyranitar has Mold Breaker!

    Start of turn 1
    Thundurus used Dark Void!
    The foe's Mega Tyranitar avoided the attack!

    The foe's Mega Tyranitar used Shift Gear!
    The foe's Mega Tyranitar's Speed sharply rose!
    The foe's Mega Tyranitar's Attack rose!

    Start of turn 2
    The foe's Mega Tyranitar used Seismic Toss!
    Thundurus lost 100 HP! (27% of its health)

    Thundurus used Me First!
    But it failed!



    As you see, I have my friend test it with me. Tyranitar was slower than me before shift gear, and I tested to be successful in that battle using Me first to copy an attack.
    In this one, however, I want to test the prankster with it. As we know, Me first is priority 0, and it is a move in the "other" category, not an attack, so I assume it is +1 with prankster. However, in the log shown above, it fails simply because the opponent outspeed my pokemon and the +1 doesn't seem to work.

    Suggestion:
    Please try to test it on 3DS. The scene could be Meowstic with Prankster and Me first, testing it to another pokemon with higher speed and use an attack other than chatter/focus blast etc. I am pretty sure Seismis Toss is not one of those that it cannot copy. Thanks!

    Meowstic-M has Prankster, but it's Meowstic-F that has Me First.

    Assist, Copycat and Mirror Move fail when trying to replicate the move.

    In other words I don't believe it's possible to test this without a Pokemon that's actually been hacked to have both Prankster and Me First.

    Oh, I didn't check. I know this is pretty trivial, but could you please try skill swap then? Stantler, Mew and Mewtwo, and Xatu can learn skill swap and me first. So the scene could be Xatu skill swap from a prankster and use me first to a pokemon attacking that outspeeds it...
    Thanks a lot!

    lol I completely forgot about transferring the ability instead. Those mons only get Skill Swap from previous gen TMs though, but I'll just try getting a Smeargle on it.

    Sorry for the delays, I got this done with @Elize Lutus who is a qt

    the key seems to be Mold Breaker:

    In a normal scenario Prankster + Me First will allow you to outspeed a faster opponent; this works on PO and 3DS

    However, on PO Prankster + Me First doesn't allow you to outspeed a faster Mold Breaker opponent, while in the games it does. So that needs to be fixed.

    Mold Breaker interactions with Prankster + any other move seem to work as they should, so it's only Me First that's bugged.

    screwed up

    turns out that was banded raki instead of scarf

    retested:
    so the bug should be that on PO Prankster doesn't work with Me First at all
