Solution: 69, larvesta, 69
[NO BLITZ]
Questions:
1. What is the lowest level at which a 252 HP/252+ Def Mega Aggron can possibly survive an Earthquake from a 252+ Atk Mega Garchomp in Sand?
2. If there could be a fourth layer of Spikes which not-fully-evolved pokemon could be KO'ed just from Spikes and Stealth Rocks alone?
3. What is Voltorb's volume (assuming it is a perfect sphere) in decimeters-cubed?
Fun fact: Neither Q1 nor Q3 were intentionally made to have those answers, but rather they are questions I thought would be interesting and just happened to have them .3.
