Gen II & III

if i give my Magneton Hidden Power in Gen II & III and it's type is one of the special types (grass, fire, water, etc..) does that mean it gets based on the Sp. Atk. or is it still physical because HP is technically a Normal-type attack? User:MAGNEDETH/Sig 02:50, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Let's take for instance, Hidder Power Bug. That'll be Physical, since Bug was a Physical type back in GenII and III. However, HP Ice'd be Special, since Ice is a Special type in II and III. Hope that clears up something. User:TinaTheKirlia/Sig 02:53, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

It'd run off the Special stat, since there is no such thing as a Normal-type Hidden Power. (It really should be ???-type..) User:TinaTheKirlia/Sig 03:10, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
