prolly the wrong section but can anyone tell me what it means? thanks
 
It stands for "Same Type Attack Boost"

basically what it means is when a Pokemon uses an attack that is of it's own type. It gains an attack boost.

Say a Grass Pokemon like Sceptile uses Leaf Blade..a grass type attack...it's power get's multiplied by 1.5x because Sceptile is a grass type.

If your using an attack on a Pokemon who's typing is not the same as the attack you will not gain a STAB boost from it. Like a Starmie using Thunderbolt...because it's not an electric type.
 
thats exactly what i thought thanks!
 
Stab means 50% extra like Aerial Ace base Power is 60,but if a flying type uses it the power becomes 90
