- Affects whom determines who the move will hit on a 2 on 2 battle. It can be selected target, user, both foes, random foe, both foes and partner, field, opponent field (Spikes) and last opponent who moved.
- Priority determines the moves speed, for example EXTREMESPEED is faster than any other move.
- Contact determines whether there is physical contact during the attack or not, for determining effects of certain abilities such as Static and Rough Skin.
