Effect Summary

Raises the user's critical hit stat img ratio by two stages.

Detailed Effect

Focus Energy increases the user's critical hit stat img ratio by two stages.
This effect can be transferred by Baton Pass or copied by Psych Up or Transform.
Stats stat img can be raised to a maximum of +6 stages each.
  • In the Gen 1 handheld games this move is not working as intended. It divides the user's critical hit stat img ratio by 4 instead of multiplying it, making it strictly detrimental to use.
    This effect can be cleared by switching out or being affected by Haze
    In Stadium the critical hit ratio uses a different formula. The increase is based on the user's Speed stat img and using a high critical hit ratio move while under its effect makes the move have a 99.6% critical strike ratio.
  • In Gen 2 Focus Energy increases the critical hit stat img by one stage
