When a stat is used in a calculation in battle, a number of modifiers may be applied during the calculation. During a battle, a Pokémon's effective stats may be raised or lowered by certain [[move]]s, [[Ability|Abilities]], and [[held items]]. Some attacks may only have a chance of raising or lowering stats, while certain Abilities and held items may require a triggering event to activate any stat modifications. | When a stat is used in a calculation in battle, a number of modifiers may be applied during the calculation.

The modifiers conferred by most moves operate on a sliding scale of ''[[#Stage multipliers|stages]]''. When a given stat is raised or lowered, its current stage is increased or decreased by the amount dictated by the move, up to a maximum of +6 or a minimum of -6. A given stage corresponds to a given multiplier that will modify the stat when it is used in battle calculations. The exact multipliers for stages are detailed in a later section below. Note that prior to [[Generation III]], no stat can fall below 1 or rise above 999; any further modifiers will | The modifiers conferred by most moves operate on a sliding scale of ''[[#Stage multipliers|stages]]''.

HP is the only stat that has no stages. [[Dynamax]] is the only mechanic that can directly change a Pokémon's maximum HP without changing the variables in the HP-determining formula. | HP is the only stat that has no stages.

If a move would raise a stat that is too high or lower a stat that is too low as a secondary effect, a quote will not be shown. In [[Generation V]] onwards, the game will take into account the effective change (for example, +2 for a stat at +5); additionally moves that list multiple will always state each stat separately, even if they're all capped. | ||
In [[Generation II]], if {{m|Curse}} still has a stat to raise, it will not display any text for the capped stats. In [[Generation III]], Curse will instead fail if all stats are capped. In Generation III and [[Generation IV|IV]], it will always list each stat separately when it does so. | |||
