Double Slap

Functionality

Double Slap is a multi-strike move, hitting the target 2-5 times per use. The odds of hitting 2 or 3 times are higher than 4 or 5 times, with the formers having 33.3% chance each, and the latters having 16.7% chance each. This results in an average of ~3.167 hits per successful attack, giving an average power of 47,5.

Each attack are considered different attacks. Hitting a Pokémon with an ability such as Rough Skin or Static, for example, will give a chance for the ability to trigger on every hit, resulting in higher recoil damage and chance to get paralyzed respectively. The ability Sturdy and the Focus Sash item can activate on the first hit, but the second hit will finish the opposing Pokémon.

If the user has the Skill Link ability, Double Slap will always hit 5 times, as long as it does not misses.

Bugs

Critical hits are calculated only once for all hits. This behavior differs from the original games, where each hit has their own chance of doing a critical hit. (Report thread)

The odds of hitting 2 or 3 times are higher than 4 or 5 times, with the formers having 33.3% chance each, and the latters having 16.7% chance each.

-Conversely to its name, it does not inerratically hit twice per turn; it hits 2-5 strikes per turn. The motional logic behind the naming is that the move will strike once with the palm and then with the backhand in tandem, thereby constituting two strikes in its execution, but that does not impose any limitation on the total amount of strikes as forenoted.
+Each attack are considered different attacks. Hitting a Pokémon with an ability such as [[Rough Skin_(ability)|Rough Skin]] or [[Static_(ability)|Static]], for example, will give a chance for the ability to trigger on every hit, resulting in higher recoil damage and chance to get paralyzed respectively. The ability [[Sturdy_(ability)|Sturdy]] and the [[Focus Sash]] item can activate on the first hit, but the second hit will finish the opposing Pokémon.
-Each strike will be treated as a discrete attack; for example, if the opponent is employing a [[Focus Band]], [[Focus Sash]], or the [[Sturdy_(ability)|Sturdy]] ability, they will only sustain the first swipe and will faint on the subsequent swipe(s) if they do not have enough HP remaining to sustain it. And likewise, if the target is holding a [[Rocky Helmet]], the user is damaged for each strike. If the target has an Ability that activates upon contact, each strike counts individually, enabling the Ability to activate multiple times.
+If the user has the [[Skill Link (ability)|Skill Link]] ability, Double Slap will always hit 5 times, as long as it does not misses.
