The same-type attack bonus is applied as part of the damage formula, so does not apply to {{cat|Moves that deal direct damage|damaging moves that do not use the damage formula to calculate damage}}. Likewise, damage that is not the direct result of a damaging move (such as {{status|poison}} damage, or the additional effect of {{m|Flame Burst}}) does not receive the same-type attack bonus. | The same-type attack bonus is applied as part of the damage formula, so does not apply to {{cat|Moves that deal direct damage|damaging moves that do not use the damage formula to calculate damage}}.
