OP Pokémon is skill based, the only reason people run scald over surf is cause burn. And people still willingly run stone edge over rock slide for power. If you are scared of paralysis and confusion, don't stay in. Goddamn it. Sounds like you rage quitted last match lol

Managing probabilities is enough of a skill for statistician to be its own career. Dozens of other fields train to deal with the uncertainties intrinsic to their work.

Just because coping with probabilities really pisses you off doesn't mean it's an invalid game mechanic. Some people find less completely deterministic games more fun.

Literally any game comes down to luck. A football player could have a terrible game because he ate a bad sandwich the night before. Just because you got parahaxed for 3 turns doesn't mean the game isn't skill based.

but even than you will have luck. allways. for example, you can't make a team to counter everything, but you might just fin someone who doesn't have that good of a team but a startegy your team won't be able to beat. that is pure luck right there.

It pretty much does, actually. At least that game. It's something you could have done nothing about, that's kind of the definition of not being skill based.
