One thing I noticed is that opponents tend to spam Protect multiple times in a row again and again with both Pokemon to the point where it just wastes time. I know protect is an important part of doubles play but the way the AI uses it verges on being obnoxious

I am having this issue whenever I try to save my game. How do I get around this? I know it is something to do with save states, but I don't know how to get around this issue.
