→‎In battle: confirmed these (and stat stages, just to be sure) with Metal Powder Ditto, Acid Spray'd Sassy Shuckle, paralyzed Milotic in BW (that "in case of a tie" is now technically redundant, but maybe better safe than sorry here?)

-Download raises either the {{stat|Attack}} stat or {{stat|Special Attack}} stat by one stage depending on the foe's lowest current defensive stat (i.e. it will raise Special Attack if the foe's current {{stat|Special Defense}} is lower than its current {{stat|Defense}} stat). If the foe's Defense and Special Defense are equal, the Special Attack stat is increased. Download ignores {{m|Wonder Room}}.
+Download raises either the {{stat|Attack}} stat or {{stat|Special Attack}} stat by one stage depending on the foe's lowest current defensive stat: it will raise Attack if the foe's current {{stat|Defense}} is lower than its current {{stat|Special Defense}} stat, and Special Attack otherwise.
+For determining which of the foe's defensive stat is lower, Download takes into account stat stages and the effect of {{m|Power Trick}}; however, it does not consider the effects of [[held item]]s, {{Abilities}} such as {{a|Marvel Scale}}, or {{m|Wonder Room}}. In case of a tie between the foe's Defense and Special Defense, Download increases Special Attack.
 During a [[Double Battle]], Download will add the two opposing Pokémon's stats and calculate the lower stat between both.
