"It is, especially if you consider Hyper Beam can hit quite a lot of targets... For example, Mega Reuniclus' Hyper Beam got recorded at 2.023 while the older Rapidash's Hyper Beam hit for 1.110 PV. The highest stab move for regulars during the recording was my Serperior using Energy Ball at 503... I knew Serperior was a bonafide genius and goes into the forest for battles a lot, but he blew everyone else out of the water. Turns out my other pokemon, like Metagross, only really trained control over their powers and a wide moveset so far and even Metagross just barely managed to land over the curve with Flash Cannon at 438, clearly showing that he put more effort into his steel moves," Pete explained before sighing, "It really makes me wonder about the benefits of bonded affinity, though. His steel move was almost 10% stronger than his psychic move. And don't get me started on Arcanine getting a 475 with Fire Fang despite me not even having a fire affinity. Whatever she does in that hot spring all day must be amazing training..."
