Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
I should probably add, the behavior should be as follows:
A Guard Dog user holding a Clear Amulet will receive a +1 Attack boost from Intimidate.
A Mirror Armor user holding a Clear Amulet will not lower the Attack of an Intimidate user.
From the mechanics research thread...

What is the bug?
The Rattled-Clear Amulet-Intimidate interaction on Showdown does not accurately reflect its in-game behavior. In SV, a Rattled user will not receive a +1 Speed boost from Intimidate if it is holding a Clear Amulet, but on...

What is the bug?
It seems that there's a race condition issue with Clear Amulet and Guard Dog/Mirror Armor against Intimidate. I've gotten a case where Clear Amulet does and doesn't block either ability in the same game.
Are you able to...
I ran these same tests today before checking if someone else had already posted about it. I guess we can confirm it still works like this a year later. The only thing I can add is that a Mirror Armor user holding a Clear Amulet does not reflect the Attack drop.
Tested the Pledge moves and how they interact with Tera today. Some of this is retreading old territory but I thought it would be good to test in case anything changed between December 2022 and now.
If the Pokemon has the same typing as the combined Pledge move and Terastalizes into said...

Heatproof
Dry Skin
Toxic Boost
Flare Boost
Strong Jaw
Steely Spirit

Defensive Terrain (Earthquake in Grassy Terrain)
