Does Skeledirge Outspeed Meowscarada?
Background:
It has all come down to this. Skeledirge and Meowscarada are all that's left. They are each giving it everything they have in battle.
Meoscarda has been slowed down by a Sticky Web but has still landed some devastating blows to Skeledirge.
Skeledirge has the massive type advantage against Meoscarda and has just been given a further advantage with a speed boost via Tailwind.
Both Pokemon only have a single hit point left! Whichever Pokemon moves first in the next turn will decide the victor!
Question:
If Skeledirge has a stage +2 boost in speed from Tailwind and Meowscarada has a stage -1 decrease in speed from Sticky Web, which Pokemon moves first and with what speed stat?
Note:
Neither Pokemon has IVs or EVs applied to their Speed stat. Since both Pokemon are at level 50, their speed stats at stage 0 are the following:
- Skeledirge = 71
- Meowscarada = 128
Hints:
Use the description of stages from the previous post to understand how to calculate the speed of each Pokemon in the appropriate stage.
Meowscarada will have a speed of 85 1/3 (128/1 x 2/3) after Stick Web. Skeledirge will have a speed of 142 (71/1 x 4/2) after Tailwind. So, Skeledirge will be faster and will win the match with a final devastating blow!
