    Client Version (if known. Webclient has no version.): 2.6.2.1

    When did you first notice the bug?: Now

    Have you been able to reproduce the bug?: Yes. Tested it with all costumes, and none of them have back sprites: it's just their front sprite

    IIRC, this is more of a case of not implementing the sprites on time. As a result, the front sprites have been there as a placeholder ever since ORAS started.
    e: So, technically not a bug.

    Showdown has Pikachu Belle back animations, but I cannot find any back sprites of any of the other Cosplay forms anywhere across the internet.

    gen 6 back sprites don't actually exist for any pokemon

    every other pokemon here just uses a frame of their respective animation

    my point was that no animations of them from the back seem to exist, nor are full 3d models available to make our own sprite from them
