same goes for 2 stages. and the attacks that raise 2 stats by 1 stage each.

I do believe they raise by 50%. So if your attack is 300 and you use something like howl or bulk up, it would become 450.

Raising 2 stages (swords dance, nasty plot) then raises by 100%. 300 becomes 600, etc.

You can raise a stat 6 stages max. So 3 swords dances, 6 defense curls, etc, for a raise of 300% for one stat. O.o

I believe the entire stat boost/drop thing goes like this.

-6-25%
-5-29%
-4-33%
-3-40%
-2-50%
-1-66%
0-!00%
+1-150%
+2-200%
+3-250%
+4-300%
+5-350%
+6-400%

Boosts attacks by about 1.3 times. So about a 30% boost. Costs 10% of your life each time you deal damage. Which kinda sucks if you're just trying to finish off a crippled opponent...

back on topic.....if ninjask were to stall to get speed boosts, and then baton pass to a random pokemon, how can you figure out how much your pokemon's speed increased by?

Say Ninjask got 2 Speed Boosts. When you BP, the new Poke would have their speed increased by 200%. To figure this out, multiply the Pokemon's Speed by 200%. I think...

Until wii meet again,

Let's get thinks clear here. If Ninjask Boost twice, that is considered an Agility which means your stat boost is 100% (double the original amount).

If the attack raises a stat one stage, is 50% of your stat. Example: from 100 - 150

By 2 stages, is 100%. Example: from 100 - 200

Max is 300% as Aryman said.

this makes sense

What H@wk said :)

2 speed boosts from Ninjask would raise the next pokemon's speed by 100%, effectively doubling it's speed.

Lets say an Kazam's using Calm Mind. It'll have.. 300 sp.attack. (Of course it got more, but I just want some easy numbers.x] )

After a Calm Mind:

300 x 1.5 = 450 atk

After another:

300 x 2 = 600 sp.atk

And after another:

300 x 2.5 = 750 sp.atk

Yeah, and so on.. It's sp.atk will raise the exact same amount every time you use Calm Mind. You can only raise a stat 6 stages.

Let me make an equation:

n*(1+0.5b)=f

n=original stat
b=number of boosts to the stat
f=final result

This only works for boosts, though.

perfect. Burn status also counts as -2 attack and paralysis counts as -2 speed.
