Optimization

Optimization is a property of certain moves. There are three types of this.

Offensive Optimization causes attacks to use the higher of the user's Attack and Special Attack. If the two are equal, this becomes Full Optimization instead. This applies to Yancola Blast, Nuclear Meltdown, Psymew, Cooltrainer, Obletterate, and Light That Burns the Sky. The Ability Attunement makes all moves the user uses have this property.

Defensive Optimization causes attacks to use the lower of each target's Defense or Special Defense. It applies to Black Hole, Rock Launch, and Psystrike.

Full Optimization is a combination of the two; attacks use the higher of the user's Attack and Special Attack and the lower of the user's Defense and Special Defense. It applies to no moves but is caused by any move with Offensive Optimization if the user's Attack and Special Attack are equal. The Ability Ultra Attunement makes all moves the user uses have this property.
