:I interpreted it as giving a 30% on top of STAB. Maybe someone calculated it out, but forgot to account for Mega Pinsir's ~30% base attack boost? [[User:Malake256|Malake256]] ([[User talk:Malake256|talk]]) 17:18, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

I'm still not clear on how to calculate this.

Example:
If a move has a base power of 90 and it gets 50% STAB bonus and 30% from Aerilate how is that calculated? Is is 50% from STAB and '''then''' 30% from Aerilate on top of that to come out at '''162'''? Or is it 50% from STAB '''and''' 30% from Aerilate together to give an additional 80% to make it '''146'''? Or do you add the 30% '''first''' and '''then''' the 50% to make it '''175.5'''?

:As with all power boosts, the percentages are only based on the original base power. Thus, if said move was also a critical hit (in Gen VI) and super effective, then it would be 90 × 1.5 × 1.3 × 1.5 × 2 (boosts totaling ×8.775, or 877.5%) = ~790 —<font face="Segoe UI"><span style="text-shadow:grey 0.1em 0.1em 0.1em">[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="#fff">The</font>]]Very[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="red">Best</font>]]</span></font> 08:11, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
