  • You can't really relegate gender to a "50% chance" since it's not randomly calculated when you use Attract. You know the gender ahead of time (as far back as team preview) so while it's chance-based at team preview (unless you set the genders specifically) as far as using the move Attract goes, it's essentially 100%. So you can't really use that as a calculation to arrive at "22%"

    Switching is definitely a factor, but at that point you're putting in so many factors that it's a little disingenuous to arrive at a "hard" number like 22%

    It wasn't intended to be overly precise, but even with usage accounted for I reckon it could only be about 10% off on either side which would still make it less likely to activate as a general rule than paralysis

    Right, but as far as I know Smogon doesn't deal in percent chances anyway, it's more the fact that with Attract, the user can switch out to negate it as opposed to evasion where you can't
