    ok so looks like on further inspection looks like its the pokemon with "getForm" multiform tag that seem to cause the pokemon to crash when being caught

    ^That does not fix the problem, it just creates more. The error will no longer come up when capturing them, but it will now pop up on the summary as well as sending them out in battle.
     
    quick update so looks like the bug seems to be somewere within the battle generating code or something because if you give the player one of the erroneous pokemon they can use that pokemon in a battle but if you capture a wild pokemon that pokemon is unusable
