Ok after some deep analysis, it appears what he's getting at is he lost, even though he still had pokes alive.
His Rhydon got roared out, and the next poke that came in died from spikes, and then it said he lost.
That means rhydon should still be alive, so he shouldn't have lost the match.
Even if rhydon had too little hp survive coming back in and live, it still makes you put the poke in and let it die, so he lost for some glitch reason.
Lemme know if I explained it correctly bro.
