How to beat Red with this team
Compare your actual moves against Red’s six, then test an opening in practice. These are matchup suggestions, not a guaranteed winning sequence.
Consider Metagross
Earthquake: 440–518 HP (189–224% of remaining HP) against Pikachu. Slower at equal priority.
Enough for a knockout on a successful non-critical hit. Possible switch-in risk: Thunderbolt can deal 136–160 HP (42–50% of remaining HP). This is a possible move, not a prediction of Red’s queued action.
Consider Breloom
Brick Break: 240–283 HP (103–122% of remaining HP) against Pikachu. Slower at equal priority.
Enough for a knockout on a successful non-critical hit. Possible switch-in risk: Thunderbolt can deal 90–107 HP (31–38% of remaining HP). This is a possible move, not a prediction of Red’s queued action.
Damage calculation assumptions and limits
Damage uses the Gen III simulator: 85–100% rolls, no critical hits, on a successful hit. Current HP, boosts, items, abilities, weather and screens are included. Hypothetical entries apply entry abilities; later healing, secondary effects, protection, and Red’s intervening action can change the outcome. Multi-hit, self-destruct, Pursuit and status moves are not assigned numeric damage. Speed compares equal-priority attacks; statuses can prevent acting. Percentages use remaining HP.
Coverage worth keeping
- Preserve Sceptile: its Leaf Blade is your only computed hit guaranteed to remove at least half of Blastoise’s remaining HP on hit.
- Preserve Metagross: its Meteor Mash is your only computed hit guaranteed to remove at least half of Venusaur’s remaining HP on hit.
- Preserve Breloom: its Brick Break is your only computed hit guaranteed to remove at least half of Snorlax’s remaining HP on hit.
