Yeah, I edited my post. I thought it was using Sludge Bomb at first. :downs: Also, RIP trash can.

If you're using the showdown calculator, keep in mind that the default set uses a choice band. Take that out and in that scenario it's 70% max.

Not that this changes the point that there's no need for a stat change for what happened.

no need, because this lovely game is for casuals, and they put the type advantages right there when you select moves. drat you, gamefreak!!!!

Psychic doesn't really have good synergy with any other types.

I don't know if I'm gonna use a Bounsweet. It's good, but so many things are also good. I guess we'll see how things "shake out."

Water is my favorite type; few weaknesses, hits a bunch of others for neutral or better, and has plenty of cool monsters and moves going for it.

bugs are weak against birds and fire and being crushed by rocks, and strong against grass which they eat. dark and psychic types are made of grass by the way
