confused
level 34,5 vaps vs level 27 poliwrath
vaps win with 50% hp left
now same pokemons but this time poliwrath is level 34 and still same results, leveling up poli didnt make almost any affect in combat.
This makes me question.
I have level 31 (1200+) chansey and sometimes i throw it in gym to stop low level players, but how low level player have to be to time out?
I see my chansey was alrdy beated out of gym by 2 players (level 6 and 20)
So my chansey cant even time out level 20 player???

By running the numbers the leveled up poliwrath will deal about 9% more damage, receive about 9% less damage, and have a little bit more HP. Not much difference.
As for the Chansey, I believe the highest level a defender has in battle is the attacking trainer's level + 1.5, meaning for the level 20 trainer your Chansey would be level 21.5. (This to allow low level trainers to have a chance in gym battles). I don't know how that works when multiple trainers with different levels attack at the same time.
