Does anyone know the formula for finding out whether a move hits or not? I know how to conduct battles without the game, I just need that formula. I have yellow, and my friend has Firered. If we knew the formula, we could see who's Dragonite could kick the other's butt. :D

Take the move accuracy. The move has this probability to hit. If somebody used sand-attack, flash, double team or anything else that might reduce accuracy, use the Pyspoke STATS MODIFIERS AND THE STAT GROWTH TABLE

The rest is basic probability.

Okay, thanks. I just thought that one of your pokemon's stats would have something to do with it, too.

Nope. :]

Okay, now I know that stats have something to do with move accuracy. Because I missed. With Surf. And there were no accuracy modifiers in place.

Stats have nothing to do with move accuracy.

The opponent could have been holding Brightpowder, or maybe it used a move to increase its evasion/decrease your accuracy without you noticing. Did the battle take place during Sandstorm or Hail against a Pokemon with Sand Veil or Snow Cloak? Or, if you were playing RBY (and likely GSC, though I haven't tested it, but definitely not RSEFRLGDPP), there is a .4% chance that Surf will miss because of the game's erroneous probability calculation.

Okay, I have Yellow, so it must have been "the game's erroneous probability calculation." Thanks
