It is not often you see damage rolls exceeding the signed 32-bit integer limit in Pokemon lol. Honestly, it might actually overflow an actual Pokemon game if a Pokemon were to be hit by that.
if it was a signed 31-bit integer limit which is pretty common for most games, and since there is healing moves it makes sense for it to be able to do negative, it'd actually heal 29,945,392 health
It's been shown a few times that the damage does roll over to 0 and start again. The highest damage possible without rolling over uses a lv.88 Camerupt for that reason. Big numbers are more fun though, so I would rather see this as "how many times can overflow damage on the opponent".
I was thinking the same thing. I believe in the actual games, you get an overflow at an earlier point due to intermediate stages of the calculation - but this number is just barely high enough that it would overflow even if that wasn't the case.
This was very well researched. And I can tell he did the research by himself, because the mistake of reporting Regirock's max defense as 458 instead of 548 was carried through to the final damage calculation :) If you correct this, and change the Helping Hand boost to apply to power instead of damage, you get a final score of 2,606,244,144 Also, you could deal more damage in Ultra Sun/Moon with a glitch (Rollout Storage)

@@RGC_animation I suppose the question here is "what is damage?" While it is true that healing is, in essence, negative damage, that's only a technicality. If we look at other games, quite a few of them split healing and damage into two different things (healing power, outgoing healing, incoming healing, etc.). In games with those distinctions, healing is fundamentally different from damage. Pokémon has no such classifications, though. By that logic, it's entirely possible that healing is damage, but in reverse. However, here is my piece de resistance against healing being negative damage.

After a quick sentence, the content creator King the Luck says, and I quote "Healing? No, healing is not negative damage. It doesn't work like that." Since we're going by King the Luck's criteria, healing is not considered negative damage, meaning your point is moot and the median would be somewhere between 0 and 5 quintillion. However, if we remove the 0 from the equation, as dealing no damage likely doesn't count since the request was specifically about the median amount of damage **you can deal**, the actual number would likely be between 0.0000000....000001 and 5 quintillion.

that must be one hell of a battle to watch, from the sidelines...100 pokemon faint, just to be revived, just to faint again; the sun has been blazing for a week straight, or whatever the equivalent time of 120+ turns; allies are attacking each other, just so they dont run out of opponents; and the last move unleashed had the power to crack the planet in half... ...that poor Smeargle is gonna ha e a story to tell, once it gets back fron the PokemonCenter (allllll of that damage, undone with a Jingle-- dun, dun, duhdoh dee!)
6:23 to be fair, I think the animation is an intentional reference to some move from a Godzilla movie? 7:04 there is Fluffy, but that only increases damage from Fire type attacks, which Last Respects is not.
Yeah, you can get insane damage with fire. -V-create having 180 BP -the sun -Forests curse, so that for example snom is 8× weak to fire -dry skin or fluffy to get essentially a 16× weakness. -flash fire (though idk if you can, like, baton pass that) And this is just specific to fire moves! There's also all the things he mentioned in the video. Sadly, 5050 BP is just too strong...
Yeah, it's a callback to Godzilla's weird flight he does in Godzilla vs. Hedorah. It just happens, is never explained, and then never happens again in another movie lmao
Fun fact about Rollout: gen 7 has a Rollout Storage Glitch. The base power of Rollout stays the same, it's the multiplier that gets applied to damage calculations, so hitting a Mimikyu to activate its ability will delay the multiplier counter, meaning, as long as you hit all 5 times, your next move will deal 32 times the damage due to the multiplier being delayed by a turn. This multiplier is doubled to 64 if you use Defense Curl, because of its interaction with Rollout and Ice Ball (Ice Ball works too for this glitch but nobody remembers that move), doubling both of their damage.
Excellent video. I have two things I'd like to mention! 1) Some friends and I tried something like this way back in the day on Shoddy Battle (THAT back in the day) with a Flare Blitz Blaziken vs. Paras (Bug/Grass Dry Skin, you see where our heads were at), and then a Power Swapped 5-turn Rollout etc Shuckle vs... I'm pretty sure we only did Shedinja because we were aiming to maximize the actual percentage, not the damage itself (though this would be the exact same thing for Shedinja ofc). All that to say: well. I don't think we hit two billion. And 2) everyone in the comments saying like "oh geez how dare you dish all that damage to a Smeargle you're a monster," but, ironically, I think the downfall of your damage attempt here was the Insomnia ability. That Smeargle was never going to fall asleep again, so I think instant vaporization was the least comfort you could actually offer him. Anyway. Excellent video! Again!
“This just in: Paldean man vaporizes the entire species of Blissey in one attack. Blissey users are protesting to evolve all Chanseys because of this.”
This exact strategy was done 7 months ago by a channel called RobbyForShort. I believe his answer was a little less because he didn’t want to use power spot. Still cool video
I mean we already know this will be obsolete in the future, since the number is going to go up another 15% once Shuckle or mega Steelix gets released in a gen 9 compatible game. So I look forward to the next video in this series.
Technically, Explosion used to be stronger Yeah, the base power is 250, but in early gens, it also cut the target’s defense stat in half during damage calculation, this isn’t exactly the same as doubling the base power, but it’s close enough to say it had an effective base power of 500
Remember self destruct is themove that deals the most damage in the game because it can knock out every enemy on the field including your own, that's at least twice as much damage as moves with no knockback
That final number is actually slightly over the integer limit, so in an actual game I wonder if this would overflow and do zero damage. If so, you might have to stack last respects slightly fewer than 100 times in order to get as close as possible to the limit without exceeding it
If you had a 4x fire weak mon (like scizor), then use forest's curse to make it also a grass type and 8x weak to fire, then give it fluffy and you have a 16x fire weakness pokemon. Still wouldn't stand up to last respects but it's funny to think about.
Well uh, with Huge Power and Pure Power mentioned and having "zero" differences, there is actually one, and while I haven't watched the vid yet to see which was used, you likey used Huge Power. Copying/Skill Swapping Huge Power to someone else surprisingly lowers the multiplier to 1.5. Pure Power, however, doesn't do this Everything has probably been calced as if it weren't but that's a recent thing I've learned Edit: Fully watched the video now. You had the right ability in Pure Power
@yonas136 idk about Bulbapedia. Bulbapedia said that Swamp from Grass plus water pledges halves the opposing Pokémon speeds when it actuality it quarters them. Take Bulbapedia with a grain of salt
@@wanderingtyphlosion7332 the original post that started that "legend" is from bulbapedia and as i said, there is a recorded proof on the post, they gives huge power to an abra and use quick attack on azumarill, then he gives guts to the same abra and the quick attack deals less damage than the huge power boosted one
@KingTheLuck now there's only one thing left to figure out, what's the most damage a pokemon can survive in one hit (as in what is the most effective health lost possible, the damage could be an okho it doesnt matter as long as the pokemon lives.)
I think I found a method to have a greater damage, but sadly it has a huge problem. If the non victim opponent uses electrify on the attacker while the electric terrain is active and after charge was used by the attacker (several turns before) you are replacing a x1.5 multiplier with a x3 multiplier (the victim has to be water flying and the attacker electric with electric tera, of course). Now helioptile, heliolisk and bolthund are not available in gen 9, so this method won't work. UNLESS METRONOME...
Great video. Would’ve loved to see something to put that damage into perspective. Like how many blisseys that would kill if every stat except health was the same.
"Just paid respects to my fallen teammates 🙏" "Bro u punched that dude so hard they just disappeared? There's not even blood they just went *poof*?" "That's what I said?"

I think itd be interesting to do most damaging mon from each pokemon type, and most damaging move from each type.
for those confused: sword of ruin halves defense, which is already 1
it doesn't half it, it multiplies it by 0.75
Man, I was ready to roast you for putting clickbait in the thumbnail, but you weren’t lying. Way to exceed expectations.
Congrats on 30k
I mean we already know this will be obsolete in the future, since the number is going to go up another 15% once Shuckle or mega Steelix gets released in a gen 9 compatible game. So I look forward to the next video in this series.
this is the kind of math my stem major friends do to call down nuclear airstrikes on my funky little monsters when we play dnd
Technically, Explosion used to be stronger
Yeah, the base power is 250, but in early gens, it also cut the target’s defense stat in half during damage calculation, this isn’t exactly the same as doubling the base power, but it’s close enough to say it had an effective base power of 500
I liked all the extra effort put into editing! Great video
And people will still think a billion lions could win...
Remember self destruct is themove that deals the most damage in the game because it can knock out every enemy on the field including your own, that's at least twice as much damage as moves with no knockback
talking about how you wanted the plaque to melt it down to use for ur own purposes appealed to my goblin sensibilities. earned a sub.
Was not expecting to hear Doma castle
If there were 3 types weak to ghost, you could use trick or treat to make the victim 8x weak
Doesn't look like Trick or Treat is in Scarlet/Violet, which is when Last Respects was introduced :(
@@GGreenHeart could be done in national dex
**Smeargle toughed it out so you wouldn't feel sad!**
That final number is actually slightly over the integer limit, so in an actual game I wonder if this would overflow and do zero damage. If so, you might have to stack last respects slightly fewer than 100 times in order to get as close as possible to the limit without exceeding it
“Honeywake up, king the luck posted again”
I answered this question on my own a while ago using the first strategy that came to mind. I got around 63000 damage. Good to know that I was way off
The 'please subscribe' bit is the best way I've heard someone try to convince people to subscribe ever
You forgot Sword of Ruin, no?
Edit: nvm, his defense was already 1!
I was going to say the same thing, glad I saw this comment before I did.
So rounding occurs at each step of the process instead of at the end?
how long before he makes a new video titled "the ACTUAL most damage you can deal in Pokemon" with some niche correction.
6:55 "To my knowledge theres not ability that increases tbe damage recieved from moves..."
What about Fluffy?
Technically correct, also Dry Skin, but there are no Abilities that increase damage taken from Ghost-type moves to my knowledge
youd need some kind of way to make last respects a fire move. then you can also use sun and fluffy
If you had a 4x fire weak mon (like scizor), then use forest's curse to make it also a grass type and 8x weak to fire, then give it fluffy and you have a 16x fire weakness pokemon. Still wouldn't stand up to last respects but it's funny to think about.

Dang I didn’t realize I wasn’t subscribed. Defo subbed now!
I love these kinds of videos, please keep them up
Well uh, with Huge Power and Pure Power mentioned and having "zero" differences, there is actually one, and while I haven't watched the vid yet to see which was used, you likey used Huge Power.
Copying/Skill Swapping Huge Power to someone else surprisingly lowers the multiplier to 1.5. Pure Power, however, doesn't do this
Everything has probably been calced as if it weren't but that's a recent thing I've learned
Edit: Fully watched the video now. You had the right ability in Pure Power
I just checked on bulbapedia and thas is actually not true, azumarill is not inferior. (the person who debunked it even put a recorded proof of it)
@yonas136 idk about Bulbapedia. Bulbapedia said that Swamp from Grass plus water pledges halves the opposing Pokémon speeds when it actuality it quarters them. Take Bulbapedia with a grain of salt
@@wanderingtyphlosion7332 the original post that started that "legend" is from bulbapedia and as i said, there is a recorded proof on the post, they gives huge power to an abra and use quick attack on azumarill, then he gives guts to the same abra and the quick attack deals less damage than the huge power boosted one
@@yonas136 fair enough
@@yonas136 Clear Azumarill fan on the Azumarill defense force lol
I swear upon all that is holy if you don't melt your play button down into brackets I will
Ayyy shout out to Eoin Reardon as your example for the 100K play button! Love that sexy Irish woodworking twink ♥️🤤♥️ Glad he's doin' well
0:40 “only one is correct”
puts a middle piece on the edge
OK but hearing Doma Castle Theme in the middle of this video is so extremely funny
Incineroar can damage your opponent in real life with heavy brain damage
Congrats on 30k!
is the cartoon traced overlay intro supposed to be super uncanny bordering on creepy?
good video
I thought the thumbnail was going to be clickbait; I'm sorry for ever doubting you.
If someone did this in the anime, Arceus would show up to delete the challenge to its authority.
At this point, that smeargle that got hit was just hakai out of existence from the timeline
Tried to see if this could be stronger but supreme overlord doesn’t stack like last respects does :(
Level 1 trillion seismic toss. Next question.
I'm pretty sure EVERY Smeargle felt that attack.
@KingTheLuck now there's only one thing left to figure out, what's the most damage a pokemon can survive in one hit (as in what is the most effective health lost possible, the damage could be an okho it doesnt matter as long as the pokemon lives.)
I'm pretty sure you have to pay for that plate of aluminum.
First one is free after crossing, duplicates cost money

I always throws my brain hearing ffxiv music in unrelated content but the doma castle theme goes hard so I respect the choice.
I think I found a method to have a greater damage, but sadly it has a huge problem.
If the non victim opponent uses electrify on the attacker while the electric terrain is active and after charge was used by the attacker (several turns before) you are replacing a x1.5 multiplier with a x3 multiplier (the victim has to be water flying and the attacker electric with electric tera, of course).
Now helioptile, heliolisk and bolthund are not available in gen 9, so this method won't work.
UNLESS METRONOME...
Did you really understood the power of last respect? Because you're clearly wrong with this take
@@pomchou Do you know how Electrify works?
@@pomchou You are using electrify exactly on the pokemon using last respect! Letting him use the move but making it an electric type!
sadly the move itself isnt in gen 9, same with ion deluge
@@an0ob591 Yes it is. Look it up on serebii
Great video. Would’ve loved to see something to put that damage into perspective. Like how many blisseys that would kill if every stat except health was the same.
A bit more than 3 million Blisseys.
Assuming every single condition (including defense) is the same except for the HP stat
"Just paid respects to my fallen teammates 🙏"
"Bro u punched that dude so hard they just disappeared? There's not even blood they just went *poof*?"
"That's what I said?"
They could never make me forget you, Stonjourner
I cant lie that was the most convincing reason to subscribe Ive ever heard
That really went over the max integer!
However if it hits a slightly than max damage roll, it still over two billion without rolling over
Been a while since I’ve seen one of these, excited
Did not know about leppa revival blessing that’s so cool nice video
The fact that your not at 100k with this many bangers is astonishing
