an HP question

[jjones1]

let's say that my linoone has HP water. does that count under my attack or sp.attack?

It would count under your physical attack since, even though it uses a typing that is water, the move itself is still classiffied as a normal attack, of which, use physical attack for its calculations.

the power of the attack though is another hidden value that you'll have to calculate from it's iv's though.

what? no, HP water/ice/grass/psychic... any kind of special attacks uses pokémon´s special attack and opponent´s special defense... why do you think that jolteon usually comes with HP ice or grass?

BUT hidden power can just be countered with counter, if you use mirror coat against one suicune that used HP dark, mirror coat will miss.
