 * However, a bug caused Zorua would copy the stats and moves of the Buddy Pokémon. The initial release of Zorua was cancelled in all time zones after GMT+13.
 * Zorua was later released on October, 2022.
 * Zorua disguising itself as other Pokémon is a reference to the illusion ability which it and Zoroark have in the main series where it can take on the appearance (but not other gameplay stats) of a Pokémon in the party.
 * A bug existed during the initial release of Zorua where catching one that spawned from an Incense or Lure Module with a Pokémon GO Plus (or similar Bluetooth device) would instead result in catching a copy of the Pokémon it was disguised as.
 * Zorua will copy Shiny status, costumes, best buddy ribbons, Shadow and Purified auras in its disguise, although they have no effect on the Zorua that is caught itself. It would even copy Mega Evolutions, but the text will still introduce it as the base form.
 * Zorua cannot be traded.
 * If a Zorua is assigned as buddy, wild Zorua would be available to catch normally and skipping the unique animation.
 * Zorua that had already spawned will not change if the Trainer changes their buddy.
