*In Generation II through IV, Beat Up has a fixed power of 10, and deals damage based on a given party member's Attack and level (as if they were using a 10 power move). Despite being a {{Dark (type)|Dark-type}} move, these attacks deal typeless damage, and thus don't take weaknesses, resistances, or STAB into account. The user's Attack stages aren't taken into consideration at all.

*In Generation V on, Beat Up's power is now determined by the base Attack of each party member, a given strike's power being (base Attack / 10) + 5. It is now treated properly as a Dark-type attack, gaining STAB and being affected by weaknesses and resistances, and uses the user's Attack stages now.
