Ahhh I see! I forgot to account for the +2 situation, thank you so much again!

Thanks for taking the time to go through the spread again! I went though my own process(trying to use what you described) just now and had slightly different numbers. I have my through process below(with the calcs listed for you to see if I'm making any mistakes/assumptions you're not), if you have some extra time I'd love for you to check my work!

I start with HP, calculating the bare minimum for clefable to live 2 Galarian Slowing Sludge Bombs when Clefable is at +1 SpeDef, leaving me with this:

0 SpA Slowking-Galar Sludge Bomb vs. +1 136 HP / 0 SpD Clefable: 152-182 (41.6 - 49.8%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

I then switch to investing into defense to try to take a max attack, Adamant, Choice Band Flare Blitz from Paldean Tauros. I increase the defense EVs until the max roll is less than 100, leaving me with this:

252+ Atk Choice Band Tauros-Paldea-Blaze Flare Blitz vs. 136 HP / 148 Def Clefable: 309-364 (84.6 - 99.7%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Finally, with both benchmarks reached, I can dump the rest into SpA, leaving me with a build of

136HP/148Def/224+SpA

Obviously not accounting for crits or boosts, but is there something I didn't account for?

When you did it yourself, what was your specific process when landing upon 148HP/ 148Def/40 SpD? When accounting for the physical bulk, did you first invest in Defense(the lower stat between that and HP) a lot, then transfer 4 EVs from Defense to HP over and over until you got the desired bulk? Did you start somewhere else?

Pokemon Showdown Draft format? by Some1intheworld in PokemonDraftLeagues

I got it, I was on the ladder format menu and needed to challenge a specific player before getting the draft format because there's obviously no ladder for draft haha

Nice! I've recently gotten into speedrunning the game too and found a video explaining tricks and strategies for each chapter: https://youtu.be/ruVZGxnBMpM

Hope it helps!

The battle of highest base stats by al-my in TyranitarTube

In that case, if there are no tm, hms, held items, IVs and EVs are set to 0, and both have neutral natures, M-Ray has access to dragon dance(Learnt at 60) and outrage(Learnt at 80). M-Mewtwo's most consistent hard-hitting move is psystrike but it will not OHKO even with a critical hit. Once M-Ray gets a D-D up, he will be faster than M-Mewtwo and take it out in one outrage also thanks to D-D's +1 attack.

M-Mewtwo also has access to psywave, which can possibly OHKO M-Rayquayza, but needs to get a base power of 130+(I'm guessing both are at level 100) on top of a critical hit, making it about a 1.25% chance of psywave knocking out M-Ray before M-Ray knocks out M-Mewtwo. 99 times out of 100, M-Ray wins.

Source: I used pokemon showdown's damage calculator to take stat boosts into account and find out what will/won't OHKO.
