If a nether portal is created in the End using commands, ender pearls will pass through the portal if the player hasn't seen the end credits.
To reproduce:
Go to the end in a new world where the player hasn't seen the credits
/setblock ~1 ~1 ~ nether_portal
Throw an ender pearl into the nether portal
Notice that the ender pearl goes past the nether portal rather than going to the nether as expected
Jump into an end portal to see the credits
Go back to the end
Throw an ender pearl into the nether portal again
Notice that the ender pearl goes into the portal as expected
You may need to try throwing ender pearls into the nether portal multiple times due to MC-196556.
