Reason: Does it check the Pokémon's species before or after using Transform (in each generation)?

If held by Cubone or Marowak, doubles its Attack stat.

In Gold, Silver, and Crystal, if a Pokémon's stat reaches 1024 or higher (such as due to a held Thick Club), it will be reduced to its value modulo 1024.
