Fickle Beam inflicts damage. There is a 70% chance for the move to inflict damage at 80 base power, and a 30% chance for it to double and inflict damage at 160 base power.<br>As a result, the "average" base power inflicted across multiple attacks can be calculated as: <math>(80 \times 0.70) + (160 \times 0.30) = 104</math>
Fickle Beam inflicts damage. There is a 70% chance for the move to inflict damage at 80 base power, and a 30% chance for it to double and inflict damage at 160 base power. Consequently, the average base power is 104.
