Not a bug [0.36.4 (Upload 2)]: Explosion/Self-Destruct Messaging Bug

[Tornado9797]

(Unfortunately I was rushing through dialogue too fast to catch this on a screenshot, but I did see it happen)
I believe the ordering of the dialogue should be switched:
Current:
<Pokémon> exploded!>
<Pokémon> used Explosion!
What I believe it should be:
<Pokémon> used Explosion!
<Pokémon> exploded!

Or the "<Pokémon> exploded!" text could be dropped, as it wasn't in the original games.

This is intentional, since the Pokémon has to explode first to "use" explosion. It might sound a little weird at first, but when you think about it, it works like this, too.
