Although I've done no testing, I'm wondering if someone has. It seems like my Tauros (Bull God) hits with Horn Drill A LOT. A great deal more than the average Rapidash does. For that matter, it always seems like Venemoth is impotent, the way he keeps trying to stun spore me, while oddish usually gets it the first time. Has anyone noticed a trend in same-type pokemon hitting better with non-damaging attacks? (I don't consider Horn Drill or Fissure damaging attacks, since they don't do a specific base damage)

For that matter, would it be easier to Sleep Powder a Slowbro than a Magmar?

No, you're just paranoid.

Sure, anything's possible. I always believe that "luck" in the game depends on OT#, but yet it's just another thoery of mine....

I tell ya, it's with the Pokèmon, not the trainer ID Nos and whatnot. It also must matter what game you play, since in Stadium I was fighting a Slowbro against my Zapdos, I used Thunder thrice, and they all missed. At that point, I had 4 HP left and was paralyzed. In Red, however, I was in the same situation, but it hit dead on the first time. I finished with not a scratch on me. It's either the Pokemon, luck, or maybe I'm just cursed.
