>>43044343For story mode flamethrower is much better. A move's chance to miss can be used to calculate the average damage it is supposed to deal in the long term, multiplying it's BP with its probability of hitting the target.
>Flamethrower average BP = 90>Heat Wave average BP = (95*0.9) = 85.5>Fire Blast average BP= (110*0.85) = 93.5Fire Blast is slightly better than flamethrower when it comes to damage and accuracy combined, but you might find flamethrower better because it has more PP. Heat wave is the worst but can be used more efficiently in doubles. Interestingly, Hydro Pump is slightly worse than surf because it has (80% instead of 85%)
