As stated in the Trivia section, the Japanese name of this move (nezumizan) translates to either Mouse Mathematics or Mouse Cut. So why is the translated version of the name in the info box “Proliferation”? It may mean a similar-ish thing, but it removes the meaningfulness of the phrase. Since the phrase is explained in Trivia, I don’t see why it wouldn’t make sense to use it.

== Wrong math == | |||
I think that the math used to calculate the accuracy is wrong. For 1 to 9 hits, the math used doesn't assume every hit is consecutive. It takes into consideration that misses can be within the combo, which can't happen. The math should be to multiply 90% by the number of hits. Hitting 7 times in a row would be 0.9^7 or about 47.83%. This is how 10 hits in a row is calculated, too, giving it its accurate 34.87% chance. [[User:Zecke|Zecke]] ([[User talk:Zecke|talk]]) 02:23, 19 April 2023 (UTC) | |||
