Yeah on top of not being effective, an iron tail from a light ball Pikachu with like heavy lvl advantage and nature advantage still like 3HKO a Mega Metagross on the lvl it evolves to Metagross, on top of Pikachu being slower (actually, I guess a big lvl advantage would mean Metagross is slower here, not that it makes a huge difference as Pikachu defense is made of paper). Unless we're supposed to believe the Mega Metagross is like lvl 20 or less or something wild like that I guess

They done Steven dirty. Ash should've been thrown out into the streets round 1
