How much damage does this do?

Level 100 Kyorge at max HP with full special attack boost holding choice specs uses Water sprout (The 150 power move). Kyorge is modest with 31 Special attack Ivs and 252 Special attack EVs. With water bubble skill swapped onto it.

Against a Slugma level 1 0 Special defense EVs/Ivs. Slugma Nature - Special defense. It also is at -6’special defense stages.

For contrived setups like this, I like to turn tomy damage calculator, which handles peculiarities that none of the popular calcs in common use do. In particular, this scenario is very similar toone that I fed to former world champion Wolfe Glick a while backfor comic effect, and some of the same oddities in the damage formula arise here as well, albeit less visible.

Getting these swaps in place (such that, among other things, Kyogre can be at +6 with a spliced ability and still be able to choice-lock into a damaging move against an opponent who’s at -6) requires a double battle, and Water Spout is a spread move. Even so, it’s possible for Water Spout to avoid getting the spread penalty, but only if Slugma’s teammate has fainted, leaving only a single target for the move to hit.

Compare with the absolute maximum damage cap of 65535, which you can never actually exceed with any move under any circumstances. Any damage calculator that tells you otherwise isn’t taking these obscure factors into account.
