      @Jon The Backpack Kid He normally allows a HM Slave/Slaves to be used in outside situations but he never uses them in battle. If that slave/One of the slaves was to enter the battle he counts that as a black out and he goes back to the last save he made. Normally says so in the beginning of all his challenges. Hope this clears up things a bit

    Poison Sting didn't "miss." The damage it did was so low, that when the game calculated how much HP to deduct, the closest integer was 0 . The only time the game thinks you can do 0 damage is when you miss, so that is the text that appeared on screen. They fixed it in later gens by making sure that damage can never be 0 and it will be rounded to 1 HP if the calculated damage is below 1.

    22:30 I don't have to tell anyone here how broken gen 1 is, but the reason dragonite isn't using damaging attacks is because the AI recognizes that the normal type hyper beam and take down are resisted by omanyte. Even though barrier and agility are just status moves the AI only checks to see if psychic type moves will be resisted or not, and since omanyte doesn't resist psychic, it uses those moves - even though its psychic moves won't do anything

      I think gen 1 AI generally just looks at type combinations but not the moves themselves. It's how the infamous Lorelei softlock (covered by Pikasprey) works, where the Dewgong spams rest against a fighting type opponent because its a psychic type move.
      Similarly, Dragonite was likely being discouraged from using moves from "ineffective types" so again used status moves that were of a different type.

      There's 4 AI strategies, none of them look at the moves very much:
      Random - literally just picks a random move, because of a bug in how it picks moves if it has 3 moves the first move is picked about 50% of the time
      Bad - picks a random move that's type is able to damage you, slightly better than random but still awful
      Good - picks the move with the best type advantage, also uses healing items if the last move you used's damage would be able to finish the Pokémon, even if the Pokémon is fully healed already(because they switched for example)
      "Smart" - reserved for the final champion battle only, the AI picks moves/potions like from good, but the AI prefers moves with STAB as well as super effective.
      None of the AI strategies in gen 1 even consider the potential damage the attacks can deal, leading to constant rest spam or using curse to kill yourself, etc.

    Lorelei's Dewgong is a strange case. In Gen 1, the game goes with whatever move is type advantaged over you, even if it's not a damaging move. There are a couple videos explaining a way to trap yourself in an infinite battle with her exploiting it, and in Yellow and Japanese Blue, they created a specific check if the Pokemon is Lorelei's Dewgong or not.
