While using metronome, the move "beat up" came up. I thought it was an interesing move. Basically, every pkmn in your team comes out and does a little damage to the opponent. But I would like to know what factors affect the damage done. The move description on serebii says "Summons party pokemon to join in the attack." This doesn't help me much. My Questions regarding the move:
1. Does the move use the other pkmn's attack power during their attack? I.E. If I had a Slaking with 460 attack power, would the damage from his attack turn be calculated with that or the original beat up user? If it uses every individual pkmn's attack power, I think this move would go well on a team of physical sweepers.
2. If the other pkmn in the party are part dark, would their attack get a stab bonus? I.E. If I had a ttar in my party, would its attack be like a 15 base attack instead of 10? If the above two are true, then a team of dark physical sweepers would be very good with this move.
3. If the other pkmn in the party are holding items, would the item's effect come into play? I.E. If someone on my team is holding a kings rock, is there a chance that the target will flinch? If all of the above is true, then a Weavile with beat up, followed by a dark team of physical sweepers, with everyone holding a kings rock....hahaha, sorry.
4. Do the other pkmn's abilities come into play when they attack. I really doubt this one, but say someone on your team had technician, would their attack get powered up?
Thats all of the battle factors that come to mind right now. Unless spikes hurts everyone that comes out. That would suck... And sorry for all of the overclarification.
