Every Pokémon trainer knows that victory hinges on strategy—not just type matchups, but precise damage calculations. A Pokémon Attack Calculator eliminates guesswork by instantly computing damage output, accounting for STAB, critical hits, weather, and more. Whether you’re preparing for competitive battles or optimizing your in-game team, this tool ensures you make data-driven decisions to maximize your KO potential.

How the Pokémon Attack Calculator Works

Our Pokémon battle calculator simplifies complex damage formulas into an easy 5-step process:

1. Select Your Attacker

  • Choose a Pokémon (e.g., Charizard).
  • Input its Level, Attack/Special Attack stats.
  • Select abilities (e.g., Blaze) and held items (e.g., Choice Specs).

2. Choose a Move

  • Pick from 200+ moves (e.g., Flamethrower).
  • The tool auto-displays:
    • Power (e.g., *90*)
    • Type (e.g., Fire)
    • Category (Physical/Special)
  • Toggle STAB (Same-Type Attack Bonus) and Critical Hit options.

3. Set Defender Details

  • Pick the opponent Pokémon (e.g., Ferrothorn).
  • Input Defense/Special Defense stats.
  • Add abilities (e.g., Iron Barbs) and items (e.g., Leftovers).

4. Adjust Battle Conditions

  • Weather (Sun, Rain, Sandstorm).
  • Terrain (Electric, Grassy).
  • Other modifiers (Screens, burn, etc.).

5. Get Instant Results

  • Damage Range (e.g., 73–87 HP).
  • % of Opponent’s HP (e.g., 42–51%).
  • KO Chance (e.g., 84% if opponent is at 50% HP).

  •  Gen 9 Support – Includes Terastalization and new abilities like Protosynthesis.
  •  Competitive Accuracy – Matches in-game damage formulas for reliable predictions.

Damage Formula Explained (Simplified)

The calculator uses the official Pokémon damage formula:

Damage = ((((2 × Level ÷ 5 + 2) × Power × [Atk/Def]) ÷ 50) + 2) × Modifiers

Modifiers include:

  • STAB (1.5x for same-type moves).
  • Critical Hits (1.5x damage).
  • Weather/Terrain (e.g., Sun boosts Fire moves).
  • Items/Abilities (e.g., Life Orb, Adaptability).

Pro Tips for Maximum Damage Output

  1. Leverage STAB – Always prefer moves that match your Pokémon’s type.
  2. Terastalize Strategically – Change your type to boost STAB further (2x → 3x).
  3. Exploit Weather – Use Rain Dance for Water moves or Sunny Day for Fire attacks.
  4. Predict Critical Hits – Moves with high crit ratios (e.g., Night Slash) can surprise opponents.
  5. Use the Pokémon Beat Up Calculator – Optimize team-based moves for multi-hit combos.
