To be fair it's a lot closer than you give it credit for. Since Tyrunt has to hit both Stone Edges that's a 64% chance for Tyrunt to win, then factor in the small chance of Spritzee OHKOing and it comes up to a 40.1% chance for Spritzee to win. Still not enough though.

MATH is fun i swaeer

Here's some interesting math you probably don't care about and isn't really neccesary for this but I wanted to do it.

Tyrunt's best move is actually Fire Fang because it can burn and flinch. On the switch Tyrunt has a 10% chance to burn. Next turn Tyrunt outspeeds, gets another 10% chance to burn and also has a 10% chance to flinch on top of that. While if it fails to either burn or flinch in those two turns Snubbull is likely to win regardless since Tyrunt has to rely on flinches from that point because Play Rough does enough damage to make a burn not helpful, it's still the best odds Tyrunt's going to get. I'm also not going to do this math all the way out because this isn't WLPlocke and screw that noise, but it becomes about a 24.46% chance in those first two turns for Tyrunt to win

1.0 [base] - (.9*.9)[burn chance failure over two turns]*(.9)[flinch chance failure] = .271 or 27.1% chance
.271*(.95*.95)[fire fang's hit odds over two turns] = .2446 or 24.46% chance.

It then blows up into whether or not Thunder Wave (removes flinch chance, adds a chance for Tyrunt to not move, if Play Rough hits can't be screwed over by burn anyways), Earthquake (can't miss, 2HKOs), or Play Rough (small chance to OHKO, is a better option in case of next turn burn, can lower Tyrunt's attack, chance to miss) is best. I'm pretty sure Play Rough is the best choice, but I did some Thunder Wave stuff and it's kinda close. Either way it's less than 50% chance for Tyrunt to win.

[Merritt]

CB foo @ hjk / stone edge / knock off / poison jab jolly max attack max speed 36hp

First off, I'm assuming you mean 36 Def because 36 HP does jack (Mienfoo has a _5 in HP) and sorry it doesn't work. 0 HP Mienfoo has 21 HP.

156 Atk Pawniard Iron Head vs. 0 HP / 36 Def Mienfoo: 13-16 (61.9 - 76.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
(13, 13, 13, 13, 13, 13, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 16)

156 Atk Pawniard Sucker Punch vs. 0 HP / 36 Def Mienfoo: 6-8 (28.5 - 38%) -- 32.8% chance to 3HKO
(6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 8)

15+6=21. There are 10/16 rolls that hit 15-16 damage, or 62.5%. This also isn't taking into account HJK missing or the high roll combinations. Bandfoo (and also Max/Max Scarfoo) don't counter Pawniard.

Or you switch in on Knock Off and suddenly you don't. Also what the fuck why are you using impish Magnemite use bold at least.

156 Atk Choice Band Mienfoo Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 156 HP / 36+ Def Magnemite: 11-14 (52.3 - 66.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

156 Atk Choice Band Mienfoo Knock Off vs. 156 HP / 36+ Def Magnemite: 8-10 (38 - 47.6%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

240 SpA Magnemite Thunderbolt vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Mienfoo: 16-21 (76.1 - 100%) -- 6.3% chance to OHKO

Mienfoo will always at least 3HKO and you have at best a 6.3% chance to win, which is less than 50%.
