600 - 420 = 180. This is the difference between something like garchomp and mightyena.
600/1.5 = 400
420/1.5 = 280
400 - 280 = 120. The difference is reduced by 1.5.
Because damage is relative to the difference in stats, eg a mon with 20 attack hitting something with 20 defence is equivalent to a mon with 100 attack hitting something with 100 defence.
0 Atk Ledyba Return vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Feebas: 73-87
0 Atk Mew Return vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Mew: 73-87
This brings the overall difference down, puts more emphasis on EVs and is just overall better.
eg
0 Atk Mightyena Return vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Garchomp: 70-83 (19.6 - 23.2%) -- possible 5HKO
Before
0 Atk Mightyena Return vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Garchomp: 70-83 (19.6 - 23.2%) -- possible 5HKO
After
0 Atk Mightyena Return vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Garchomp: 71-84 (24.9 - 29.4%) -- 100% chance to 4HKO
Solution for everything.
