Question

How much damage would a Porygon Z with Adaptability do with Hyper Beam??

Answer 1

Adaptability increases your STAB moves from 1.5x to 2×.
Hyper Beam does 150 damage.
With STAB, plus Adaptability, it will do 300 damage.

Thanks again :)

no problem :D

---

OMG Thats a ton  of damage

---

What if you added Silk Scarf?

---

silk scarf doubles right? so wouldnt it be..... 600?

---

No, Silk Scarf boosts it by 20%, so with a Silk Scarf it's power would be 360.

---

with normal gem it would be 600

---

Just think... Hyper beam+adap+stab+silk scarf...so powerful

---

ummmmmm hyper beam doesnt do 150 damage, thats the power of the move

---

and also, you shouldn't use silk scarf, get a life orb, adaptability hyper beam with that..... 300 power, and a 1.5x from life orb, i believe power isn't the same as damage, after all, there are many factors to calculate, and the equation is probably longer than what flame said for sure

With hyper beam with adaptability + live orb is has a whopping 450 POWER.
