How to recognise it

A dot with two adjacent corners yellow on top. Hold them at the back: the front side shows a full yellow bar.

Its inverse is another case

Do the 18 algorithm backwards, r' U2 R U R' U r2 U2 R' U' R U' r', and you are solving 19.

That's why CubeDojo never scrambles 18 that way: it builds a random state with the case fixed, so you practise 18 and not 19.
