the next step would be a test with a lighter bomber to prove my theory wrong that it´s just a reverse LK/GK, for ex. by using
- hariyama (~254kg) to heavy bomber mesprit, mewtwo and torterra
- emboar (150kg) to heavy bomber mesprit, mewtwo and torterra
hit them just a few times and
a) if they do similar damage (to snorlax) -> reverse GK/LK
b) if they do different damage -> we´ll have to figure out the formula
- also please try to hit something with around 100kg (between m2 and gon, for example venusaur with 100kg)
- and snorlax vs snorlax as well, to see whether you get base power 20
- for fun, try to heavy bomber a heavier foe :)
Thanks for those calculations, i wouldn't be able to it myself.

Yeah... I can't remember how to calculate the p-value, but I'm pretty certain a move with 66% accuracy has pretty good odds of randomly hitting 58 times out of 100.
If you have Wide Lens and Focus Blast on hand, that should be the next test. If it's actually 1.3x (implying 66% accuracy with Zap Cannon), then it will never miss. If not, it's probably 1.2x
Fuck....
I'll try this tomorrow
