Which of these combinations will return the most HP?

Question

Giga Drain (Just as an example) with Big root, or with leftovers/black sludge? Also, will this be different depending on which move and/or boosts I have?

Comments

this depends on the damage giga drain would do so

Answer 1

This question doesn't have a definitive answer, as it will depend on how much damage the healing move (Drain Punch, Giga Drain, Oblivion Wing, etc) does.

Comments

also depends on the pokemon's health for what it would bet back from leftovers or black sludge.  i think it usually ends up with big root only being better if you are getting super effective hits all the time

good points. I suppose upon reflection, if a move misses, it makes big root useless, while OHKO's make it awesome... thanks for the brain food
