* ''Type'' is the {{DL|Type|type effectiveness}}. This can be 0.125, 0.25, 0.5 (not very effective); 1 (normally effective); 2, 4, or 8 (super effective), depending on both the move's and target's [[type]]s. The 0.125 and 8 can potentially be obtained on a Pokémon under the effect of {{m|Forest's Curse}} or {{m|Trick-or-Treat}}. If the target is under the effect of {{m|Tar Shot}} and the used move is {{type|Fire}}, multiply this by 2. If the used move is {{m|Struggle}} or [[typeless]] {{m|Revelation Dance}}, or the target is typeless, ''Type'' is always 1. Decimals are rounded down to the nearest integer. | * ''Type'' is the {{DL|Type|type effectiveness}}.

In the first four Generations, during the calculation, any operations are carried out on integers internally, such that effectively each division is a [[wp:Rounding#Rounding_to_integer|truncated integer division]] (rounding towards zero, cutting off any decimals), and any decimals are cut off after each multiplication operation. From [[Generation V]] onward, however, there are three different types of rounding; a simple decimal truncation (also known as flooring), standard rounding, but rounding down at 0.5, and standard rounding, but rounding up at 0.5. If the calculation yields 0, the move will deal 1 HP damage instead (unless ''Type'' is equal to 0); however, in Generation V, a move may deal 0 damage when ''other'' is less than 1, because the routine to prevent 0 damage is erroneously performed before applying the ''other'' factor. | In the first four Generations, during the calculation, any operations are carried out on integers internally, such that effectively each division is a [[wp:Rounding#Rounding_to_integer|truncated integer division]] (rounding towards zero, cutting off any decimals), and any decimals are cut off after each multiplication operation.
