Gyro Ball inflicts more damage the slower the user is compared to the target. Therefore, the larger the relative difference between the user's and target's {{stat|Speed}} stat, the greater the damage. The base power is calculated by the following formula:
Gyro Ball inflicts more damage the slower the user is compared to the target. Therefore, the larger the relative difference between the user's and target's {{stat|Speed}} stat, the greater the damage. The base power is calculated by the following formula:


:<code>Base Power = min(150, (25 × Target's Current Speed / User's Current Speed) + 1)</code>
:<math>BasePower = min(150, \dfrac {25 \times CurrentSpeed_{target}}{CurrentSpeed_{user}} +1)</math>


The Speed values used in the calculation take all modifiers into account (including stat stages, {{status|paralysis}}, held items such as the [[Iron Ball]], and Abilities such as {{a|Slush Rush}}). Effects that only modify movement order without affecting Speed (such as {{m|Trick Room}} and {{a|Stall}}) have no effect on Gyro Ball.
