• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    not well-defined to our knowledge; games use a damaging 40 bp typeless physical, though. (we've used 40 bp typeless physical, discounting stab entirely, before, and it didn't seem to be complained about.)

    what else would you do with substitute? you select a size and you spend half as much energy to create it.

    6 exp off of 15 exp still leaves 9 exp for the maximum boost, though!

    never mind that no such charizard will ever exist because clearly it is more efficient to just take six exp off the top of that and rare candy them, because charizard learns neither night shade nor psywave?

    ?? what not much of what you said makes much sense. ISSUE: thunder fang has a base power of 65, not 65%. also, should, say, a BP 65 attack really cost more energy than a BP 60 attack?

    the scale evidently does not account for base stats; is this because it turned out to be a bad idea, or simply because it was too much work for not enough actual gain? would it be acceptable to account for base stats in personal scales? how much of a change to damage/energy expenditure would be...

    ... I should clarify. I was considering the scenario in which a pokémon at 100% health uses pain split against an opponent which, due to arena conditions, has greater than 100% health -- a dragon's den simulation legendary, yes. does that cost energy equal to half the difference (as if...

    if, for whatever reason, a pokémon using pain split is unable to heal all of the damage it would recover (I don't think this should happen normally, but), how much energy should it cost?
