In other words: only four IVs that give different remainders when divided by four would cover all possible Hidden Power types and powers.

If so, the number of possible Hidden Powers should be 4<sup>6</sup>=2<sup>12</sup>=64*64=4096. This number, however is again far too large, as the real number of possible variations of Hidden power is simply 16*41=656, as Hidden Power exists in 16 types and has 41 different powers. The significant difference between 656 and 4096 is explained by the function ''floor[]'', which reduces theoretically different numbers (for example 10.952 and 10.476) to the same integer (Whole Number) (in this case 10).
