I've been using the pokemonshowdown calculator to prepare for battles in Ultra Sun and they've been serving me well. But I just almost wiped to the Butterfree trainer on route 3 again and it was down to the calcs being completely wrong. For some reason it was showing Silver Wind as doing 6-7 damage on Zubat and an easy kill, but in-game it did a full double that, which lead to it dying and me scrambling to find a way to not have all my mons oneshot. Would have stood zero chance if he got the boost.
Same story vs other mons - calculator shows 13 - 14 damage on Crabrawler but it did well over 20. I have max IVs and SpA EVs plugged in for it and imported my own so the stats should be right, and I've triple checked that there's no accidental light screen or whatever activated. The damage I was doing was basically on the money with the calc. What's up with this guy's freak Butterfree?
