I'm curious. Imagine a water-type pokémon uses a water move and therefore gains STAB, but said pokémon is also holding the item "Mystic Water." How would the STAB and Mystic Water power boosts stack?

:It was found that it had no STAB due to that Normal actually being {{DL|List of glitch types|Normal|the glitch type}}. Even if they were Normal/Normal (which apparently all mono-type Pokémon are internally), then they would only get a single STAB.

==Explosion Get STAB From Lickilicky?==
 
This article says that {{t|Normal}} type Pokémon do not receive STAB from Normal type attacks. But the page on {{p|Lickilicky}} says explosion receives STAB when used by Lickilicky (Which is a Normal type attack). So why does this page say Normal type Pokémon don't receive STAB with Normal type attacks? ----[[User:Ethan7|<span style="color:Navy">Ethan</span>]] <small>''([[User talk:Ethan|<span style="Black">Talk</span>]])''</small> 04:40, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

:The page says that Normal-types ''do'' receive STAB from Normal attacks, and that Normal-types can't get STAB on Hidden Power because Normal-type Hidden Power is unobtainable. You may have misread part of the article.--[[User:Cold|Cold]] <small>([[User talk:Cold|talk]])</small> 04:48, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

::Oh, now I see. They said '''contrary''' to [[Nintendo]]'s official guides. Thus it would receive STAB. Sorry about that.

=={{a|Pixilate}}, {{a|Aerilate}}, {{a|Refrigerate}}==
Do the moves boosted by these Abilities also receive STAB, if applicable? The Pixilate article says yes, but the rest say nothing. Furthermore, according to the tests of someone on [[Talk:Refrigerate (Ability)]], Refrigerate does ''not'' stack with STAB. If all of these moves are like Pixilate, then "plus any other modifiers" should be added for clarity. If not, it needs to be said that it doesn't. --<font face="Segoe UI"><span style="text-shadow:grey 0.1em 0.1em 0.1em">[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="red">The</font>]]Very[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="white">Best</font>]]</span></font> 22:01, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
