To elaborate, Ralzaleaf has a STAB 140 base power, 90% accuracy move with 30% chance to flinch coming off 120 base attack in Sky Attack. That is incredibly powerful, and rivals an Adaptability Porygon-Z's Tri Attack for one of the most powerful moves in the game.

What does STAB actually stand for?

Same Type Attack Bonus. Pokemon that use a move that is their type get a x1.5 boost to its power. For instance, when Pikachu uses Thunder, its base power basically goes from 120 to 180. (1/2 of 120 = 60. 120+60=180)

Oh. I knew that happened, but I didn't know what it was called.

That is incredibly powerful, and rivals an Adaptability Porygon-Z's Tri Attack for one of the most powerful moves in the game. Rivals it? Ralzaleaf Sky Attack has 50 base power over PZ's Tri-Attack after factoring in STAB and PZ's Adaptibility. With only 10 points less in the relevant base attacking stat, Ralzaleaf clearly hits way harder. |

Pokefan, who really cares? There was no pattern to begin with, that's just how I happened to do it.

KillingEdge: except PZ can Nasty Plot, and I don't plan on giving Ralzaleaf Swords Dance OR Bulk Up. With no method of personal attack boosting, Porygon-Z can easily achieve a more powerful attack after a Nasty Plot, and Porygon-Z's special attack is 135, compared to Ralzaleaf's respectable but nto amazing 120 attack, making Tri Attack probably more powerful in the long run.

I know it doesn't matter. I actually don't care, really.

killer, you never put Synthoma into the tiers. Synthoma and Ralzaleaf are separate evolutions from Bellaseed.
