Damage calculation
To calculate Iron Tail's damage against a specific target, plug it into our damage calculator. Physical moves use the user's Attack stat against the target's Defense stat in the formula:
damage = (((2 × level / 5 + 2) × 100 × A / D) / 50 + 2) × modifiers × roll(0.85-1.00)STAB applies if the user is steel-type (1.5× damage, or 2× if the user is Terastallized into steel). Type effectiveness against the defender stacks on top.
