Looks like you just got unlucky. In the future please use the damage calculator for things like this. https://pokemonshowdown.com/damagecalc/
How do I change a Pokemon stats? I can so far only change its EVs and IVs. I am trying to change its HP, ATT, DEF and stuff.
How can I get a private group chat on the main showdown server to invite people to? Ive been looking all over, I can't seem to find an answer anywhere
Get roomdriver+ in any public room, or global voice. Then, type /makegroupchat.
Question - How did the Guzzlord outsped anything in my team while using different moves, without trickroom or tailwind?
There's currently a bug floating around that messes with stats. I'm not sure what causes it, but you can read a bit about it here: http://www.smogon.com/forums/thread...-before-posting.3469932/page-363#post-7493375
RoakOriginal looks like PS is currently undergoing some bug regarding Random Battles with pokemon getting random stat buffs. They're a known issue.
EDIT:
[17:10:46] %Wally~: the stat bug is now fixed, everything should be fine if new battles

The stats are, like in the games, based on evs and ivs.
At level 100, they're calculated like this: Stat = 2 * base + 5 + ivs + evs / 4.
This means that a Mew (100 base attack), with 252 evs and 31 ivs, will have an attack stat of 2 * 100 + 5 + 31 + 63 = 299. If it has adamant nature, that is increased by 10% to 299 + 29 = 328.
For HP, the formula is Stat = 2 * base + 110 + ivs + evs / 4 instead.
Because the fact that it's a technicality is unimportant. "OU by technicality" is a lot of unnecessary characters to say that Mega Latios is essentially OU.
but mega garchomp is in ou by technicality (which is abbreviated by "(ou)")
Ah, to be honest I was unaware they used parentheses to indicate it was a technicality. Sorry for that. In the case of Mega Latios, I'm sure it's just because it was only recently released and they haven't gotten around to updating it yet.
Global staff are much more limited compared to the userbase of the entire server than roomauth are to userbases of rooms. Whenever an issue pops up, it's more often than not a scenario where a global staff member doesn't need to be involved, as a roomauth would direct to a global if necessary.
It would also be difficult for global staff to have privacy if they could be spotted from the /auth list as online, even when they're not in a public room.
This. Note that /roomauth only shows the staff members who are currently in the room (and thus available for moderation). That allows them to close the room and focus on other things on the site, rather than receiving PMs about moderation at all times.
With global auth, this isn't feasible. The closest thing to this behavior would be bolding the globals who are currently in the help room.
If I lost my username, who could I contact to get the password back?
The roomintro in pokemonshowdown.com/help should have directions for you.
