Generation I accuracy

In Pokémon Stadium 2, Earl mentions Whirlwind among the moves whose accuracy changed since Pokémon Red and Blue. Azure Heights says here that its accuracy was of 84.4% in Generation I. Is there any other source mentioning an accuracy of less than 100%? --Johans 04:29, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Checking the links in the infobox, and the only note it has [on veekun, although since Azure Heights specializes in RBY i'd think they'd know] is before GSC, it didn't affect trainer battles. I don't have RBY access to check, however. Tina δ281 04:32, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
RBY accuracy is up to 255/256, or 99.6%. Every accuracy in Gen I is out of 256, instead of out of 100. In Gen II they changed it so it wasn't ridiculous and Surf didn't randomly miss for no reason. TTEchidnaFire echy 04:45, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

The Bulbasaur picture

I don't like that we're using it. Did Ash actually say "Whirlwind" in the Japanese version of the anime? How do you know he just didn't say "Blow it away" in Japanese and 4Kids didn't just screw things up again? Unless this can be verified he said it in the Japanese version too, it has no buisness being in this article. --ケンジガール 05:16, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
