picks a 2 evo snarl with 175k attack/6k defense over a 160k attack with 12k defense.

so i never use recommend. only time would be to use it as a guide, then interchange it so you have a good strong defence/hp balance. This has been claimed time and time again and I have yet to see anyone offer any proof. I have done some minimal testing that shows that recommend does seem to maximize damage, not just attack values. In the above case, you also need to consider HP before deciding which is the better combination, those 2 values alone are not sufficient to tell.
