Wow, thank you. I had the 1 damage that you take on a critical hit in my original analysis notes and then it somehow got lost when I wrote it up again for this page and then I referenced that writeup in making the strategy analysis code. Will fix posthaste.

i appreciate the info but you made one error, if the opposing pokemon flees and you attack and crit, you still take 1 damage, so you should NEVER attack when you have 1 hp even if you just had a staredown as attacking is a guaranteed failure at 1 HP

I've always wanted to know more about this mechanic, as I carry mine around with me daily… it always seemed like random luck. Thank you so much!

I've finally got around to using my Pokéwalker in the last month or so, and through trial and error it looks like I had mostly figured out the correct course of action, but it's superb that you've created this guide, and I can check back here if I get a little confused. Thank you very much!

I found my old pokewalker and I've been getting my butt handed to me in battles so I looked up a guide, and just saw this was made recently?? Thank you for the guide, you've saved my pokewalker life, pika!

Nice, I've always wanted to know how this part of the Pokewalker worked behind the scenes.
