>>55720003here's maxie's and flannery's teams. let's run down the list, using the calcs:
Lvl 65 0 Atk Sceptile Double Kick (2 hits) vs. Lvl 38 0 HP / 0 Def Registeel: 64-76 (53.3 - 63.3%) -- approx. 2HKO
Lvl 65 0 Atk Sceptile Rock Slide vs. Lvl 39 0 HP / 0 Def Crobat: 124-146 (97.6 - 114.9%) -- 81.3% chance to OHKO
Claydol is nuked
Alakazam is nuked
Lvl 65 0 Atk Sceptile Crunch vs. Lvl 38 0 HP / 0 Def Dusclops: 90-108 (100 - 120%) -- guaranteed OHKO
Lvl 65 0 Atk Sceptile Double Kick (2 hits) vs. Lvl 39 0 HP / 0 Def Houndoom: 140-168 (117.6 - 141.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO
and now let's assume that in the 20 trainers all using 6 Pokemon between maxie and flannery, I didn't gain any levels whatsoever.
Lvl 65 0 Atk Sceptile Rock Slide vs. Lvl 41 0 HP / 0 Def Ninetales: 124-146 (100.8 - 118.6%) -- guaranteed OHKO
Charizard is nuked
Lvl 65 0 Atk Sceptile Rock Slide vs. Lvl 42 0 HP / 0 Def Blaziken: 64-76 (48.4 - 57.5%) -- 94.5% chance to 2HKO
Lvl 65 0 Atk Sceptile Rock Slide vs. Lvl 41 0 HP / 0 Def Arcanine: 118-140 (86.1 - 102.1%) -- 12.5% chance to OHKO
Lvl 65 0 Atk Sceptile Rock Slide vs. Lvl 42 0 HP / 0 Def Typhlosion: 118-140 (90.7 - 107.6%) -- 50% chance to OHKO
Lvl 65 0 Atk Sceptile Rock Slide vs. Lvl 42 0 HP / 0 Def Castform-Sunny: 128-152 (104 - 123.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO
the sole issue to deal with across these teams is maybe blaziken, surely that will stop our based sceptile in its tracks?
Lvl 42 0 Atk Blaziken Blaze Kick vs. Lvl 65 0 HP / 0 Def Sceptile in Sun: 132-156 (70.9 - 83.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
you need a little luck, sure. but compared to clover, or unbound? it's barely anything at all.
emerald kaizo is an easy game. i'm sorry you had to find out this way but it's true.
