(Koala vs Arti)

Meteor guy is probably the best Shell Smasher in the format. 100% the best one that doesn't have access to Baton Pass, but maybe still the strongest regardless.

Also you lost even if you knew what it did, because Minior in his Shell form is immune to status effects. (And if you tried to Seismic Toss to change it into it's Core form than it gets a power boost and easily 1-shots Chansey)

Hmmm. Seems I should have stayed in on Druddigon I think with Hawlucha. High Jump Kick has like a 25% chance of KO'ing actually. I pretty much lose on the spot if I don't KO, but I think that may have been better than my chances switching it out. Oh well

I feel like at that point it was too early to know that it was a make or break moment, and to pin it on a move that might fail to kill or simply miss entirely is a big risk. There were still several living pokemon on both sides at that point and so the possibility of setting up hawlucha a few turns later wasn't unreasonable to hope for.

I think the heal bell to wake up arcanine might have been a mistake though. You could have used lanturn to kill the muk outright on that turn instead of letting it chunk a large part of lanturns life and lanturn might have gotten more value out of the next couple turns then arcanine got. Even being awake the arcanine lost half of it's remaining life when it switched into the rocks.

Well, I was already assuming that was more-or-less the make-or-break moment. It's just that I didn't actually think High Jump Kick could kill, and I actually thought it was "make-or-almost-break" if that makes sense. Like if I'd damage calc'ed that during the match though I would have done that without any hesitation.

The reason I tried to save Arcanine is because it could beat or at least seriously hurt Swalot when nothing else on my team could. (It had Morning Sun for the record.)

Although actually I don't think there's any reason not to kill Muk and then Heal Bell after that. It ends up the same doing that I think, but at least this gives you more chances to mess up by sending in the wrong thing maybe

I side with pyre here and was almost floored when he didn't attempt the high jump kick, as soon as he made that switch I knew FD's chances at winning went up considerably. Hindsight is 20/20 but I do agree that that moment is when the match turned.

Man losing in situations where it's "you win unless your opponent lands a crit" is the literal worst.

Other than of course losing in situations where it's "you win unless your opponent lands two crits in a row and also only because they landed that other crit 5 turns ago". That one also happened to me this weekend though was not what prompted this post.

Salty as hell right now.

Well good news for everyone else. I just used up an entire year's supply of luck by getting 3 of the most broken teams imaginable against @Shonen_Bat in a set. So, I'm due to get RNG screwed by literally everyone during the actual league matches.

To give an idea, this was the "weakest" of my teams:
Genesect-Chill
Ho-oh (you guessed it...no Stealth Rock)
Magnezone
Swords Dance Feraligatr
Jumpluff
Whiscash
