This just happened to me and I am so sad 🙁 But, I'll try to make this thread as an overall thing.
We are really overdue a "don't purfy" button. There are so many ways someone might do this by mistake. You do it by mistake thinking you are powering up or using an adventure effect. You left your phone unattended and your child presses some buttons. You put your game in your pockets and next thing you know – it pressed some buttons. You got home drunk and accidentaly misclicked. You scrolled through pokemon and you accidentantaly swiped on a different pookemon instead of the intended one. Whatever, there are multiple situations where you can purify a mon by mistake.
I literally did this in 5 seconds. Just add a "lock" button opposite the favorite button. https://imgur.com/xf1png3
You can even make it to work as a button that won't let you powerup mons if you wanna use it for UL/GL (which is also an issue people went through!!)
Like come on, we have a button for "favorite mons" which doesn't let you accidentally delete things you want, why do we not have a button for things that we can accidentaly purify??? 🙁
