 ====Generation II====
-When hit with a move that will cause the holder to faint, there is a ~12% (30/256) chance it can survive with 1 HP. This can also also protect against [[recoil]] damage and self-inflicted {{status|confusion}} damage. Focus Band only needs to trigger once to protect from all strikes from a [[multi-strike move]]. It cannot protect from damage from {{m|Future Sight}}.
+If the a Pokémon holding a Focus Band is hit by a damaging move that would cause it to faint, there is a ~12% (30/256) chance the Focus Band will activate and cause its holder to survive with 1 HP. It cannot activate as a result of self-inflicted {{status|confusion}} damage or {{m|Future Sight}} damage.
+If Focus Band activates as a result of a [[multi-strike move]], the holder does not faint from any of the strikes.
 ====Generation III====
-The chances of Quick Claw activating are decreased to 10%. Unlike Future Sight, Focus Band can protect the holder from {{m|Doom Desire}}.
+The Focus Band now has a 10% chance to activate. Focus Band now allows its holder to endure self-inflicted {{status|confusion}} damage.
+Unlike Future Sight, Focus Band can protect the holder from {{m|Doom Desire}}.
 ====Generation IV====
