Hmm, I got different numbers applying Morgoth's formula to the Link match. I was trying to get a read on Bidoof to use for Mudkip, and got this:

Link 55%
Bidoof 19.78%
Edgeworth 11.91%
Agent J 5.96%

Of course, I had Link at 50% and then did a 50/45 multiplier on everyone else. Maybe that proves KM's formula to be incompatible? Or it just doesn't work with values above 50.


Haste tends to round his numbers.
With Link at 55% I'm getting:
Link - 55.00%
Bidoof - 19.58%
Edgeworth - 11.79%
Agent J - 5.90%

With Link at 50% I'm getting:
Link - 50.00%
Bidoof - 17.80%
Edgeworth - 10.72%
Agent J - 5.36%

which scales back to the first one, I don't know where your numbers came from...

It doesn't work with values above 50. If someone's expected to get 55% on base Link, the actual strength value is 55.56%. I wish creative kept his x-stats above 50 as the strength value rather than the expected percent on BL, as the former is instantly calculable...

?
It works with values above 50, what am I missing here?
