>>56816606Mariwak has a 50 chance for 80, and a 25 for 160, sooverall a 75 chance to do at least 80 compared to Eggy's mere 50, so statistically Marowak will always be hitting harder than Egg, simple as.
Even the whiff turns *should* even out with double heads down the road, but the problem is you don't always need double heads, so even if it does even out like that unless it's against a Mewtwo than it was worthless good luck.
Statistically Egg killz Mewtwo far slower than Marowak, whi only needs 2 heads, but it also gets one shot by Mewtwo as well if it doesn't double heads, and you have the potential to do nothing at all.
Egg has >150 HP I think, so that's a guaranteed 80, potential same as Marowak over 2 turns.
In the moment and general battling Marowak is always and will always be "better" and "stronger" but it doesn't always need to be stronger, and it can't always live long enough for math to equal itself out for Marowak.
Egg as well only needs a single energy, and hitting things for 80 - 160 over 2 turns matters more than hitting for 0 - 320 over 2 turns.
