1. What is a Pokemon Accuracy Calculator?

Definition: This calculator determines the effective accuracy of a Pokemon move by considering its base accuracy and various modifiers.

Purpose: It helps Pokemon trainers understand the actual hit probability of moves in battle after accounting for all modifiers.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

Where:

• \( \text{Accuracy} \) — Effective accuracy of the move (%)
• \( \text{Base Accuracy} \) — Move's base accuracy (%)
• \( \text{Modifiers} \) — Combined effect of all accuracy modifiers (dimensionless)

Explanation: The base accuracy is multiplied by all applicable modifiers to determine the actual chance to hit.

3. Importance of Accuracy Calculation

Details: Understanding effective accuracy helps in battle strategy, move selection, and predicting outcomes.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the move's base accuracy (0-100%) and the combined modifier value (default 1.0). The result is capped at 100%.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What affects the modifier value?
A: Modifiers include accuracy/evasion stat stages, abilities, items, and field effects.

Q2: How do stat changes affect accuracy?
A: Each +1 accuracy stage increases modifier by 1.33x, each -1 decreases by 0.75x (max 6 stages).

Q3: What's the modifier for moves that never miss?
A: Moves like Aerial Ace or Shock Wave have special modifiers that override the formula.

Q4: How does evasion work in this calculation?
A: Target's evasion stages affect the modifier similarly to accuracy stages but inversely.

Q5: What's the minimum possible accuracy?
A: The minimum is 1/3 of base accuracy after all reductions (minimum 1% chance to hit).
