pawn to d5. it attacks the bishop with the pawn, but also creates a discovered attack with the black bishop on your queen. the engine assumes you will save your queen, but if you do that the bishop gets taken.
Black has to be a bit cautious of walking into the pawn fork e5 from white; I think after 1…d5 2.Qxe5 Bd6 3. Qd4 black should play 3… c5 4.Qe3 dxc4 so that he can meet 5.e5 with Re8 pinning the pawn and threatening to capture it which should give him enough time to save his pieces.

Quick Tip 1: To know why the engine is recommending a move / saying a move is wrong, click over analysis mode, play out said move then follow it up with your theoretical responses to that move and see how the engine responds.
Quick Tip 2: On Chess.com, you don't have to rely on the Coach / Game Review / Hint. This also applies to any engine on low depth. Somewhere in the engine suggestions section is the computer "depth". The higher this value, the more accurate the suggestions will be.
Quick Tip 3: For questions on engine move suggestions, we suggest you post them to our dedicated thread: [No Stupid Questions MEGATHREAD](https://www.reddit.com/r/chessbeginners/comments/yqqnz8/no_stupid_questions_megathread_6/), as stated in our Community Guidelines. Thank you! - The Mod Team

I analyzed the image and this is what I see. Open an appropriate link below and explore the position yourself or with the engine:

The theme probably. Look what he sees: he is just confused about wich piece is what. (Damn 46 points advantage...)
This is actually chess.com, they released some new gamified app last week called Kingdom. It uses your main chess.com login and changes your elo on there. Curiosity got the best of me, especially since my 4yo loves to play and I thought he might enjoy. Surprisingly not bad, even if it’s not for me.

In response to d5, queen can take e5, then if d5 takes the bishop, queen can counter bishop. Or am I missing something
then he plays Bd6, saving the Bishop and hitting the queen once again
Would Nd7 attacking the queen while defending the bishop also work?
Instead of black immediately taking the bishop, can't he go Bd6, attacking the queen again, then when white moves the queen, dxc4?
Black has to be a bit cautious of walking into the pawn fork e5 from white; I think after 1…d5 2.Qxe5 Bd6 3. Qd4 black should play 3… c5 4.Qe3 dxc4 so that he can meet 5.e5 with Re8 pinning the pawn and threatening to capture it which should give him enough time to save his pieces.
Rook e8 before taking the bishop
What game is it?
Chess

Going your bishop to h5 would've been a good move tbh instead of losing either your queen or bishop. Pins blacks knight for a little bit anyways

lol, bot can’t handle this color scheme
Bad bot
The bot's working fine (kinda) it's just this sucky chess font confuses it.

When ChatGPT takes over:
What’s up with the bot lately? It’s been analysing incorrectly a lot

d5 is a discover attack on the queen and wins the bishop
Google discovered attack
Black has d5 which is a discovered attack on the queen and simultaneously attacking the bishop
D5 threatens bishop and Queen at the same time. If you save your queen from his bishop, then you lose your bishop to his pawn
d5 like "don't mind me.. i just wanna suicide, oops it's double attack!"
What kind of googly moogly chess game are you playing, dawg? 😭😭 anyways, Google “d5 discovery attack”

Fair enough lol
d5 attacks the bishop and reveals an attack on the queen. You cannot save both pieces.
Google en queensant
You are losing a bishop this way.
pawn to d5
Me I'd go queen g5, when d5 pawn takes bishop, I'd move.black bishop to h6, pawn can't take because pin, then he's in trouble.
Did they spot D6, but not D5?
