The most damage possible is by using a Swampert against a lvl 1 Noivern, having a Max attack Swampert with Ice Ball and Defense Curl in a Triple Battle

>Give Swampert a Metronome
>Have a Shuckle with Power Trick use Power Split on Swampert
>Using Defense Curl
>Swagger on the Swampert 3 times
>Passing Protean through Skill Swap to Swampert
>Using Forest Curse on Noibat
>Reduce its defense to -6
>Use Sunny Day to activate Flower Gift
>Helping hand on Swampert
>Getting a crit on the last Ice Ball hit

The result is a Max damage of 755,603,424

That's the damage Ice Ball does on its last hit, so switching the Noibat to tank the last hit does the trick... On paper, because the same as the Shuckle hit, it's basically impossible to setup something this complicated

Fairy is weak to poison and steel because in old myths Fairies/Fae would be burned or killed by cold Iron. Putting certain incenses out was also poisonous to them or made them ill.

Surskit and Nincada are the only Pokemon to evolve into a more common type combination. However, if you only count fully evolved, then you can include Metapod, Pineco, Silcoon, Burmy, Karrablast, Spewpa, and Pinsir (Mega) because there are more fully evolved Bug/Flying and Bug/Steel than fully evolved pure Bug.

Flying is the most commonly lost type upon Mega Evolving (Charizard X, Gyarados, Altaria).

That said, both Machamp and Ursaring can learn Metronome from the Gen 3 tutors, and have a higher Atk.
If they randomly got Ice Ball out of it, would it be stuck with it the following turns, and would Protean activate? If so, that's even more damage.

Surely Huge/Pure Power would do more damage than Protean.
On top of that, Honchkrow could Mirror Move something that uses Defence Curl and Ice Ball, it has 125 Attack.
Or Absol could Mimic a Defence Curl, then Me First an Ice Ball.
Besides all that, I would have thought that a Huge Power Shuckle with Power Trick + STAB would be better than a Poke with Power Split and only one of Huge Power OR STAB, even if it could only get a x4 super effective instead of a x8.

The catch rates of Hariyama and Azurill were accidentally switched at some point in development. They're literally the only cases in the entire dex where the evolution is easier to catch, and they're right next to each other. Swapping them fixes both of them.

Doesn't explain the gender thing, though.
