What is the LEAST Damage You Can Deal in Pokemon?

Sure everyone knows how to deal the most damage in Pokemon, but have you ever wondered what the least amount of damage you can do is? Before rounding up to 1 and ignoring 0, of course.
If I catch any of you in the comments saying to just use a type immunity to deal 0 damage: I know where you live and I'm in your walls

[@connfdm]

I looked into this myself a while back and it's great to see how much of this you got right compared to other videos on the topic, but there are still some ways to go lower: - Mimic + Reflect Type allows you to get Water/Dragon/Grass on any target Pokemon that learns Mimic. - Guard Split can be used by Shuckle to average its raw Defense stat with the Defense stat of any target. Its stats reset when it switches out, allowing you to repeat this process until your target Pokemon has 613 raw Defense (one less than Shuckle's maximum of 614). Combined with Eviolite and +6 Defense, this allows you to get the absolute maximum Defense stat without the use of an ability, 3,678. - Much more importantly, Gen 7 is more optimal than Gen 6, as the utility of triple battles is offset by access to Hydro Vortex from Aqua Jet, which applies a ×0.25 modifier when protected against. These optimizations let you get to a minimum of 0.0024919 damage, or about 402 Shedinjas. (P.S. to show just how little the Defense optimizations matter, if you still just use a +6 Kingdra you get a minimum of 0.0024934. :P)

[@Rytex-nh7pm]

One way you could do less damage is in gen 1, in gen 1 it is possible for a move to do zero damage but the game will count that move as missing even if it cannot miss. One way to do this is to have a the lass from mount moon use absorb with her Oddish on a level 29 or higher Ivysaur

In Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon, it's possible to deal 12.973 billion damage using Rollout storage.

I wondered about this in the past. I think you could probably go lower using an Electrified Frustration affected by Forest's Curse and Mud Sport. In gen 7 Chansey can use Gigavolt Havoc on a protecting Pokemon Guard Split with Shuckle and Reflect Typed with Zekrom. I have a replay, but I think it is outdated because I forgot about Rivalry at the time.

Improvement: If you use a Pokémon with Reflect Type to get gain the Dragon/Water typing, you can decrease the amount of damage even more. The options are either Mew (base 100 SpDef) or Toedscruel (base 120 SpDef), both of which are higher than Kingdra’s base 95 SpDef. I’m not sure how much this would effect the final damage calc, but it would certainly decrease the amount dealt.

the actually pesky part of the damage formula is the integer division. after each division step, any fractional portion truncated off is so after not much time the game sees it as 0 damage and all the extra multipliers aren't actually doing anything until the end of damage calcs where it checks if you're about to do 0 damage and then it makes it do 1 damage instead

Hmm, depending on how you define "damage" would the "lowest" potentially be healing your opponent for the largest amount possible? Like an experiment to see how much HP you could get an ability like Water Absorb to heal from a single attack.
