>>39144015>CharizardLee could probably oneshot Zard with Return, but Flamethrower most likely kill her right back, and Zard is likely to be faster, even with the extra stats player mons tend to get over computer ones.
Thus Larisa is sent in, easily tanking a Flamethrower.
Zard then hits Larisa with Fire Spin before instantly crumpling to Rock Slide. This gives me a fright since I'm not sure how trapping works in Gen 2- will Fire Spin keep Larisa trapped even with Zard dead? If so, she has no shot at survival against...
>Blastoise...It turns out you can switch if the Fire Spinner is KO'd. Attea is sent in, taking little damage from Surf.
Blastoise Surfs again, and Attea shows her Swagger.
Blastoise hurts itself, and Attea piles on more Swagger. Blastoise hurts itself again, and Swagger is used once more.
Attea Protects, and Surf fails.
Next turn has a Protect fail and the confusion fade and Surf hits Attea.
Swagger then misses two turns in a row as Blastoise keeps surfing, and I make the assumption it can't confuse the opponent if their attack is already maxed out.
So now Attea and Blastoise just exchanges Surfs, and the Swagger damage and less powerful Surfs end up resulting in Blastoise losing this duel.
Silver down! Moving on to Pearl next!
