This is a short and informative guide on how to properly use the Pokemon Showdown Battle Calculator. This is what the calculator would look like upon opening it! This is a lot of information all at once, so first we'll work on simplifying it all up. Go click on both Pokemon's names and switch them to the Blank Set version of the Pokemon you need! Ignore all other types - these are just relevant for people who play the Pokemon games competitively. All we want is Blank Set. Once you've hit Blank Set, you'll end up with something that looks a lot like... The only thing you want to change on this right now is Ability! Switch it to your Pokemon's proper ability, if able. A lot of Pokemon abilities affect how moves and damage work! Switch both of those bad boys on over to Blank Set first before we move on. Pick out a move for your Pokemon to use and check out the following calculation! In this case, Trainer A's Charizard is blasting at Blastoise with a Flamethrower! This deals between 17-20% damage! That's pretty solid. This ignores anything that could happen in-RP, however - such as blocking attacks with attacks and taking partial hits - but this is a great working model of how to handle the basic level of damage on Epoch. BUT MURDOC, you, my adoring members, cry out, WHAT IF MY MOVE ISN'T IN THIS CALCULATOR, WHAT EVER WILL I DO? Say no more. I, your loving admin, know a way! Let us say we wish to use Draining Kiss. A fun little Fairy-type move not in the calculator - well, just go on ahead and pick Moonblast, then edit the damage descriptor! Is your Charizard using Swords Dance so that it can crack open that Blastoise for lunch and scar a ten-year-old at the sight of fresh blood? Say no more. Simply record the usage of stat-boosting moves next to the stats in the range of -6 to +6! There are some things you might have to calculate for yourself - such as status damage like Burn or Sandstorm - but you can always ask myself or someone else to help you with those calculations.
