I was playing Pearl today; it was the Wi-Fi mode at the Battle tower, battle room 1.
You battle trainers from around the world who have uploaded their teams for others to battle. The goal is to defeat 4 in a row.
Well it was my 4th trainer and we both had 1 pokemon left: I had Poliwrath and he had Latios. My Poliwrath has a good nature for Sp.Atk and was EV trained in Sp. Atk as well, so I knew 1 hit from Blizzard would KO Latios. I gave Poliwrath a Wide Lens, which boosted Blizzard's accuracy from 70% to 80%.
Turn 1: Blizzard misses, Latios uses some Dragon move. (Dragon Claw, I think.) Takes away about half my HP.
Turn 2: Blizzard misses, Latios uses the Dragon move again. I thought I was done for, but then I still had 6 HP left! I had one more chance!
Turn 3: ...Blizzard misses again. Latios finishes me off, and I lose.
It wasn't just this battle, either. Poliwrath's moves, all with 80% accuracy, seem like they hit half the time. I've had moves with 95% accuracy miss twice in a row. I remember in Pokemon Stadium, Raichu's Thunder attack missed 6 times in a row on one opponent while the opponent's Fissure hit pretty regularily.
It's mostly cheapness in the accuracy of my moves, but sometimes moves like Flamethrower give status ailments at a much higher rate than they're supposed to. I like the Pokemon games, but sometimes the computer opponents just seem stacked. Agree?
