MonkeyShrapnel: /* Gen II Stick and Lucky Punch */ new section

Critical hits are now 1.5x damage instead of 2. The stages seem to have been altered as well, but testing is still being done to figure out exactly how. {{unsigned|Ctom42}}

It's known that maximum affection in the Pokémon-amie increases a Pokémon's critical hit ratio. Does it achieve this by adding one more stage, or is it something else entirely? I have an Absol with super luck, maximum affection, and shadow claw, which should bring it to stage 3 if this theory is accurate. Once I get the scope lens, I'll see if it automatically crits every time. Though so far I don't think I've seen it not crit, implying max. affection adds <i>two</i> stages.[[User:Treehugger0123|Treehugger0123]] ([[User talk:Treehugger0123|talk]]) 01:58, 28 November 2013 (UTC)
== Farfetch'd ==

While it is true that Farfetch'd will auto-crit when using stick and a high-crit move, this is a symptom of the larger changes to critical hits. It is also true that focus energy and a high crit move will auto-crit. I can see this piece of information being an ok place holder until the new critical hit stages have been researched, but it should definitely be replaced by a chart detailing the stages in 6th gen once the research is complete.

== X Defense and X Spe Defense ==

Do critical hits ignore defense boosts from x items? {{unsigned|RubyLeafGreenCrystal}}
:Since X Items raise stats like regular moves do, yes. Also, please remember to leave your signature on your messages. [[User:Lanthanum|Lanthanum]] ([[User talk:Lanthanum|talk]]) 04:30, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
::Thanks. Should it be mentioned in the article then? I am not that good at writing. [[User:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|RubyLeafGreenCrystal]] ([[User talk:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|talk]]) 04:41, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
:::It doesn't need to be. Otherwise you'd have to find every move that raises Def and Sp. Def and fix those too. The definition of critical hits already covers this. [[User:Lanthanum|Lanthanum]] ([[User talk:Lanthanum|talk]]) 04:43, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

where's the mention of corpish scoring a critical hit against girafarig?[[User:Roserade57|Roserade57]] ([[User talk:Roserade57|talk]]) 09:59, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

== Crit boost from Max Raid Cheers ==

In the Max Raid Battle page (at least in [https://x.com/Sibuna%20Switch/status/1782236856555393286 the tweet] linked to on it), one of the cheers listed is a crit boost. Is this a "getting pumped" boost or an "other" boost? It's not on the table anywhere. [[User:Ordalca|Ordalca]] ([[User talk:Ordalca|talk]]) 06:14, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

== Gen II Stick and Lucky Punch ==

It might be worth adding in how the Stick and Lucky Punch work differently in Gen II by directly setting the critical hit stage to +2 and ignoring all other stage boosting effects.
