Not a bug Ghost Moves Incredibly Weak

[Viger]

With the 0.27 update, I've discovered that Ghost type moves, even when super effective, do very little damage, far less than what they were able to do before.

That Abra should have fainted in one hit simply because of the level differences.

P.S: The Abra couldn't teleport away due to a bug with Teleport. (Now's your chance to catch an Abra everyone)

true, but Night Shade's Damage is based on the LVL of the pokemon using it. however, the Move is not like Sonic Boom and it should of did more damage.

however i have noticed the same thing with lick so it might not just be because of the effect of night shade

that attack would have done 22 damage, no type effectiveness, no STAB, no crits. it does flat damage based on level.

lick has 20 power (for reference tackle has 50 and aeroblast has 120) of course it won't hit hard. shadow ball pwns though
