Determining the highest stat does not take into account any modifiers caused by [[status condition]]s, items, or moves; however, it does consider stats changed via {{m|Power Split}} and {{m|Guard Split}}. In the case of a tie, it increases one stat, prioritized in this order: {{stat|Attack}}, {{stat|Defense}}, {{stat|Special Attack}}, {{stat|Special Defense}}, and {{stat|Speed}}.
