Scald has a really good base power of 80, 100% accurate to boot, burns the opponent 30% of the time...yeah, you wonder why people run scald? Because its strong and reliable. It makes sense that it burns more often than most fire type moves too: you're more likely to get scarred by boiling water than you are an actual flame.
