Question about how a battle works.

[MetalScyther]

Well, after using the PBS with my new bogged standard team, I came across the solution that screech+Hyperbeam persian sucks, and that substitute and bodyslam is WAY better.

Anyways, I'm going against a snorlax. I predict that the snorlax is going to hyperbeam to kill me, so I sub(so that I could slash him to death). The beam breaks the sub obviously, but then the snorlax didn't have to recharge(this was on the PBS). Then he just bodyslammed me to death.

I'm wondering if this is a glitch on the PBS, or if its supposed to be this way. Did it work like this on the game? Is it SUPPOSED to work like this on the PBS, or was that just some kind of glitch?

That's how it works on GB, so KK put it into his PBS..
Also note, that if you explode and destroy a sub, you wont have to faint..

I actually quite like that rule, because like, it means you can;t have like a Mewtwo using Substitute to avoid an Explosion..
So like, Self destruct Mewtwo would be more useful, if we used Mewtwo..

Have a nice day.

Actually, on KK's pbs(it works diff. on GB), if you use explosion while having a sub up(i thought substitute eggy could own), you faint too, sadly.

[Feelingsad]

No, if you explode when your opponent has a sub up, you dont faint, is what I meant.
