When a Pokémon with Beast Boost causes another Pokémon (including allies) to faint through direct damage, its highest stat (other than HP) rises by one stage. If its highest stat is already at +6 stages, Beast Boost will not activate, not even in the case of a tie.

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}}, {{m|Guard Split}}, {{a|Power Trick}} and {{m|Speed Swap}}. 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}}.
