I haven't seen it yet, but that would make poison pokemon pretty broken.

From my experience, Poison causes subsequent attacks to deal more damage.

I trained in a gym where there was a nidoran(f) with poison sting. Every time I started a battle with it and was hit by poison sting, I was poisoned. Unfortunately, I didn't notice any difference, so this is all the info I can provide.

I encountered poison on my gym battle, and it does effect the fight although I can't tell too clearly since the difference in CP is too high but I think poison whittles down your health by a bit not the attacks to hit harder.

I was battling the gym earlier today and a Golbat used poison fang and My Vaporeon had a purpleish tint to it and all subsequent attacks did noticably more damage ( it went from not even touching me to doing moderate damage )

Edit : earlier today my lapras was poisoned and I happened to snag a screenshot

Hey,
why you take cloyster as the best ice pokemon.
Lapras has the same moves and types, but better cp

The best way to test it is to bring a pokemon with a poisoning attack to a gym and do the poisoning yourself. Once you've poisoned an opponent pokemon, stop attacking and observe whether or not the opponent's HP goes down without an attack.

If no answer comes back before then I'll test and see tomorrow morning.
