 ===Generation I===
-Horn Drill has 30% accuracy and inflicts damage equal to the target's current {{stat|HP}}. Horn Drill will break a {{m|substitute}} if it hits. Horn Drill cannot be countered by {{m|Counter}} (not even if it misses).
+Horn Drill inflicts damage equal to the target's current {{stat|HP}}. Its [[accuracy]] is 30%. Horn Drill will break a {{m|substitute}} if it hits and cannot be countered by {{m|Counter}}.
 Horn Drill will not affect a target whose current {{stat|Speed}} stat is greater than the user's current Speed stat.
 ===Generation II===
-Unlike in Generation I, Horn Drill can affect a Pokémon whose Speed stat is greater than the user's current Speed stat. However, it cannot affect a Pokémon of a higher level. The accuracy of Horn Drill depends on the level of the user and the level of the target and is worked out with the formula
+The accuracy of Horn Drill now follows the formula below.
-  Accuracy = ((level of user - level of target)*{{tt|0.78|2/256*100}} + 30)%.
+  Acc = ( ( user_level - target_level ) * 2/256 + 76/256 ) * 100%
+This forumla means that the accuracy starts at approximately 30% and grows by approximately 0.78% for every level higher than the target that the user is.
-In the core series games only, Horn Drill can be countered by {{m|Counter}} if it misses, resulting in a OHKO.
+Horn Drill's efficacy is no longer based on the target's Speed; instead, now it cannot affect a target that has a higher [[level]] than the user.
+In the core series games only, it can be countered by {{m|Counter}} for maximum damage if it misses.
 ===Generations III to VI===
-Horn Drill's chance of hitting is now independent of {{stat|accuracy}} and {{stat|evasion}} stats; instead, it depends on the level of the user and the level of the target and is worked out with the formula
+The formula for Horn Drill's accuracy is now:
- Accuracy = ((level of user - level of target) + 30)%.
+ Acc = ( ( user_level - target_level ) + 30 ) * 100%
+Horn Drill's chance of hitting is now unaffected by {{stat|accuracy}} and {{stat|evasion}} stats.
 Horn Drill can no longer be countered by {{m|Counter}}.
