Can certain moves damage other simultaneous attackers in Pokémon Go?

Can certain moves damage other simultaneous attackers in Pokémon Go? - Back view of anonymous couple walking near aged house with dirty wall and inscriptions

I saw some info at Battling at a gym simultaneously with other players, but I didn't see any info about my question. I can't comment on other questions yet, so here we are.

My wife claims that my Snorlax's earthquake hurts her pokémon whenever we're battling a gym simultaneously. In the traditional pokémon games, moves like earthquake do affect allied pokémon in multi-battles, so her claim has merit. A friend claims otherwise, and I'm not finding an answer from crazy uncle Google.

Do such multi-target moves hit simultaneous battlers in Pokémon Go? Thanks in advance!



Best Answer

No they don't effect other pokemon. Other than elemental varients no moves have any special effects whatsoever.

I don't believe so, and I live in a veeeery competitive area. I'm sure that all damage goes directly to the enemy, and no one else
