This article

Why exactly is it exist? There is section in the article about stats. Maybe we should move all the info (um, actually only Gen I mechanics) there? --ЫъГЬ 19:20, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Statuses

If I paralyze the Pokemon, does that increase accuracy, or do status effects not apply in the accuracy part? --Vinnievu (talk) 06:07, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

Glitch?

I just encountered (Pokemon Emerald) a case where a 100% accuracy move, Ice Beam, missed on the first turn of a battle (and thus no modifiers yet). Should I add this glitch onto this page or the glitches page? - unsigned comment from Jjl2357 (talkcontribs) 8:01pm 6 March 2013

It is unlikely to be a glitch. Chances are it was affected by an Ability. Can you provide further information about the situation? --SnorlaxMonster 04:23, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Unclear

This doesn't really seem that clear to me, if a number over 1 always hits, does that mean that it generates a random number from 0 to 1 and if the random number is over the result of the formula then it misses?* -EVsandIVsaurs 19:59, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

Missing table?

The section on the page for Generations III+ mentions that item effects will be detailed in a table below the paragraph, but no such table exists. Did it exist at some point and accidentally end up deleted?

That was copied from another article, the mentioned table is this one. Nescientist (talk) 17:38, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
