DarkPhysical

Punishment deals varying damage based on the opponent's stat increases. It starts at base power 60 and increases by 20 for every net stat boost of the opponent, up to a maximum of 200 (7 boosts). In other words the power is: For example, if the opponent used Nasty Plot and Agility once each, that is a total of 4 stat increases (+2 Special Attack, +2 Speed) and Punishment's base power will be 20 × 4 + 60 = 140.
