Secondhighest. I already know the highest amount of damage you can deal by using a…

+6 Power Tricked 252+ Defense EVs & 31 Defense IV Shuckle using the final turn of a Defense Curl boosted Rollout on a -6 Level 1 0- Defense & 0 Defense and HP IV Combee on a Critical Hit.

So what is thesecondhighest amount you can deal under different circumstances?

Welp, by trying to prove that Shuckle could be beat, I accidentallyproved that he is still the best.

However, after much research, Shuckle can learn the move Mimic througha FR/LG/E/XD Move Tutor, which means that Shuckle can also use IceBall. Here is what I found out:

User’s Team:

Shuckle @ Metronome Level: 100 Ability: Any IVs: 31 Def EVs: 252 Def+Def Nature Maximum Defense: 614- Defense Curl (Emerald Move Tutor)- Power Trick (D/P/Pt/HG/SS Level 48)- Mimic (FR/LG/E/XD Move Tutor)- Any

Smeargle

Cherrim Ability: Flower Gift

Cherrim Ability: Flower Gift

Opponent’s Team:

Noibat @ Any Level: 1 Ability: Any Ivs: 0 Def Evs: 0 Def-Def Nature Minimum Defense: 4

Walrein

-Ice Ball-Any-Any-Any

Greninja Ability: Protean

Medicham Ability: Pure Power

Have Smeargle use Forest’s Curse on Noibat to add a Grass type HaveSmeargle use Skill Swap with Greninja to get Protean Have Smeargle useSkill Swap again to give Shuckle Protean Have Walrein use Ice BallHave Shuckle use Mimic to copy Ice Ball Have Shuckle use Defense Curlfor 2x power Ice Ball Have Shuckle use Defense Curl until Shuckle isat +6 Defense Have Shuckle use Power Trick Have Smeargle use SkillSwap on Medicham to get Pure Power Have Smeargle use Skill Swap againto give Shuckle Pure Power Have Shuckle use Ice Ball until Metronomeis at maximum potency Have Cherrim use Sunny Day to activate FlowerGift for both Cherrim Have both Cherrim use Helping Hand on Shuckle OnIce Ball’s 5th hit, get a critical hit

To make things simple with the calculation, I’m keeping out the supereffective and critical hit calculations until at the end.

yup, this is actually the most damage a Pokemon can do. if we then simply remove 4 of shuckle’s attack EVs, the result would be the second most damagehttp://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/696959-pokemon-x/67632721?page=1feel free to clean up, anyone
