* ''Critical'' is 1.5 (2 in [[Generation V]]) for a [[critical hit]], and 1 otherwise. Decimals are rounded down to the nearest integer.

* ''STAB'' is the [[same-type attack bonus]]. This is equal to 1.5 if the move's [[type]] matches any of the user's types, 2 if the user of the move additionally has {{a|Adaptability}}, and 1 otherwise or if the attacker and/or used move is [[typeless]]. If the used move is a combination Pledge move, ''STAB'' is always 1.5 (or 2 if the user's Ability is Adaptability).
