If you used merciless, toxic, venoshock, would crit and double damage still apply?

Ran a test on PS!

With Merciless

Without Merciless

But unfortunately, the test isn’t clear in result, so I ran some Damage Calculations, and it looks like you’re right:Both Double Damage and Crit Hit stack up

0 SpA Toxapex Venoshock vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Abomasnow: 98-116 (30.5 - 36.1%) – 42.4% chance to 3HKO[Neither Merciless nor Poisoned]

0 SpA Toxapex Venoshock (130 BP) vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Abomasnow: 194-230 (60.4 - 71.6%) – guaranteed 2HKO after toxic damage[Poisoned, but no Merciless]

0 SpA Toxapex Venoshock vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Abomasnow on a critical hit: 146-174 (45.4 - 54.2%) – 38.7% chance to 2HKO[Crit hit, without Poison]

0 SpA Toxapex Venoshock (130 BP) vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Abomasnow on a critical hit: 290-344 (90.3 - 107.1%) – 43.8% chance to OHKO[Crit hit, with Poison, i.e. with Merciless]
