# MegaPower Mechanic Overview<\/p>\n
## Overview<\/p>\n
MegaPower is a special battle mechanic built around **Mega Evolution**, **Ultra Burst**, and **Z-Moves**.
\nThe purpose of this mechanic is not simply to add extra visual flair, but to further strengthen the **presence**, **strategic value**, and **decisive impact** of Mega Evolution, Ultra Burst, and Z-Moves in battle.<\/p>\n
In a standard battle system, these special powers often feel like one-time bursts of power:
\nMega Evolution focuses on form change and raw stat improvement, Ultra Burst emphasizes a unique transformation, and Z-Moves are primarily explosive finishers.<\/p>\n
MegaPower expands their role beyond that.
\nRather than being simple one-time activation buttons, these mechanics become core systems that can change battle tempo, influence resource management, and shape both offensive and defensive decision-making.<\/p>\n
In simple terms:<\/p>\n
> When a Pok\u00e9mon successfully activates one of these special powers, that power does not stop at the burst itself.
\n> It is further converted into recovery, correction, or enhancement, giving Mega Evolution, Ultra Burst, and Z-Moves much greater tactical depth.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Design Goals<\/p>\n
MegaPower is designed around three main goals:<\/p>\n
### 1. Strengthening the battlefield presence of special mechanics<\/p>\n
Mega Evolution, Ultra Burst, and Z-Moves are meant to be major turning points in battle.
\nMegaPower makes them not only **look powerful**, but also **feel truly important in actual combat**.<\/p>\n
### 2. Increasing tactical value<\/p>\n
MegaPower does not always give the same fixed reward.
\nInstead, it checks the Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s current state and automatically provides the most meaningful benefit for that moment.<\/p>\n
### 3. Tying burst mechanics to battle tempo<\/p>\n
MegaPower allows these burst-oriented mechanics to influence the overall pace of battle.
\nIt can stabilize a losing position, reinforce a neutral exchange, or push an advantage even further.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Trigger Conditions<\/p>\n
MegaPower is triggered when any of the following special powers are successfully activated:<\/p>\n
– **Mega Evolution**
\n– **Ultra Burst**
\n– **Z-Moves**<\/p>\n
MegaPower is not a separate mechanic that exists on its own.
\nIt is directly attached to these three systems in order to make them more impactful.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Core Rule<\/p>\n
After a special power is activated, MegaPower automatically converts that power into the most valuable benefit based on the Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s current condition.<\/p>\n
Its resolution follows two main directions:<\/p>\n
– **If the Pok\u00e9mon is not at full HP:** it focuses on **healing and state correction**
\n– **If the Pok\u00e9mon is at full HP:** it focuses on **stat enhancement**<\/p>\n
This makes MegaPower a dynamic mechanic rather than a fixed heal or a fixed boost.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Numerical Foundation<\/p>\n
MegaPower uses a point-based healing system:<\/p>\n
– **1 heal point = 10% of the user’s maximum HP**
\n– **Base healing = 5 heal points = 50% max HP**
\n– Healing is always based on **maximum HP**, not missing HP
\n– The system can reduce healing as low as **0%**
\n– The system can increase healing as high as **100%**<\/p>\n
This means every MegaPower heal falls into one of these exact values:<\/p>\n
| Heal Points | HP Restored |
\n|————|————-|
\n| 0 | 0% max HP |
\n| 1 | 10% max HP |
\n| 2 | 20% max HP |
\n| 3 | 30% max HP |
\n| 4 | 40% max HP |
\n| 5 | 50% max HP |
\n| 6 | 60% max HP |
\n| 7 | 70% max HP |
\n| 8 | 80% max HP |
\n| 9 | 90% max HP |
\n| 10 | 100% max HP |<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Effects When Not at Full HP<\/p>\n
If the Pok\u00e9mon is not at full HP, MegaPower prioritizes recovery.
\nHowever, the exact outcome depends on the Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s current stat stages.<\/p>\n
### 1. No stat changes: stable recovery<\/p>\n
If the Pok\u00e9mon has **no positive stat changes and no negative stat changes**, MegaPower grants:<\/p>\n
– **5 heal points**
\n– **Recovers 50% of max HP**<\/p>\n
This is the standard neutral outcome.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
### 2. Negative stat changes are more severe: correct the worst drop and heal less<\/p>\n
If the Pok\u00e9mon has negative stat drops, MegaPower checks the **largest negative stat stage currently affecting it**.<\/p>\n
It then:<\/p>\n
– selects one stat among the most severely reduced stats
\n– restores that stat by up to **5 stages**
\n– reduces healing by the same amount<\/p>\n
Formula:<\/p>\n
– **Healing = 5 – corrected stages**
\n– minimum healing is **0**
\n– maximum correction is **5 stages**<\/p>\n
#### Exact values<\/p>\n
| Worst Negative Stage | Stat Correction | HP Restored |
\n|———————-|—————–|————-|
\n| -1 | +1 stage | 40% max HP |
\n| -2 | +2 stages | 30% max HP |
\n| -3 | +3 stages | 20% max HP |
\n| -4 | +4 stages | 10% max HP |
\n| -5 or lower | +5 stages | 0% max HP |<\/p>\n
#### Example<\/p>\n
If a Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s Speed is at **-3**, and that is its worst negative stat change, MegaPower will:<\/p>\n
– restore **3 stages** of Speed
\n– heal **20% of max HP**<\/p>\n
If multiple stats share the same worst negative value, one of them is chosen randomly.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
### 3. Positive stat changes are more severe: convert boosts into stronger healing<\/p>\n
If the Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s strongest positive boost is greater than its strongest negative drop, MegaPower instead converts part of that advantage into recovery.<\/p>\n
It then:<\/p>\n
– selects one stat among the highest boosted stats
\n– removes up to **5 stages** from that boost
\n– increases healing by the same amount<\/p>\n
Formula:<\/p>\n
– **Healing = 5 + consumed stages**
\n– maximum healing is **10**
\n– maximum consumed boost is **5 stages**<\/p>\n
#### Exact values<\/p>\n
| Highest Positive Stage | Boost Removed | HP Restored |
\n|————————|—————|————-|
\n| +1 | -1 stage | 60% max HP |
\n| +2 | -2 stages | 70% max HP |
\n| +3 | -3 stages | 80% max HP |
\n| +4 | -4 stages | 90% max HP |
\n| +5 or higher | -5 stages | 100% max HP |<\/p>\n
#### Example<\/p>\n
If a Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s Attack is at **+4**, and that is its highest positive boost, MegaPower will:<\/p>\n
– remove **4 stages** of Attack
\n– heal **90% of max HP**<\/p>\n
If multiple stats share the same highest positive value, one of them is chosen randomly.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
### 4. Positive and negative sides are equal: one side is chosen randomly<\/p>\n
If the strongest positive boost and the strongest negative drop are exactly equal, MegaPower randomly chooses one of the following paths:<\/p>\n
– **negative correction path**
\n– **positive conversion path**<\/p>\n
This means equal extreme values create an intentionally unstable but potentially high-impact result.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Effects When at Full HP<\/p>\n
If the Pok\u00e9mon is already at full HP, MegaPower does **not** heal.
\nInstead, it grants **+1 stat stage**.<\/p>\n
### Full HP priority rules<\/p>\n
### 1. First priority: Accuracy or Evasion<\/p>\n
If the Pok\u00e9mon already has a positive **Accuracy** or **Evasion** boost, and that stat is still below **+6**, MegaPower will prioritize one of them and raise it by **+1 stage**.<\/p>\n
– If one is higher, that one is chosen
\n– If both are tied, one is chosen randomly<\/p>\n
### 2. Otherwise: highest core stat<\/p>\n
If Accuracy and Evasion are not valid choices, MegaPower boosts the Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s strongest core battle stat by **+1 stage**:<\/p>\n
– **Attack**
\n– **Defense**
\n– **Special Attack**
\n– **Special Defense**
\n– **Speed**<\/p>\n
The chosen stat is the highest stored core stat that is not already at **+6**.<\/p>\n
### 3. If no valid stat can be boosted<\/p>\n
If there is no valid stat left to enhance, MegaPower provides no further bonus in that full-HP case.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Battle Meaning<\/p>\n
MegaPower changes the role of Mega Evolution, Ultra Burst, and Z-Moves in a fundamental way.<\/p>\n
Without MegaPower:<\/p>\n
– Mega Evolution is mainly a stat and form upgrade
\n– Ultra Burst is mainly a transformation
\n– Z-Moves are mainly single-use burst attacks<\/p>\n
With MegaPower, they also become:<\/p>\n
### 1. Turning points in battle<\/p>\n
They do not just create a stronger moment.
\nThey immediately reshape the state of the field.<\/p>\n
### 2. Resource conversion tools<\/p>\n
They allow players to convert power into:<\/p>\n
– healing
\n– stat correction
\n– additional enhancement<\/p>\n
### 3. Tempo-defining mechanics<\/p>\n
Their value changes depending on the current state of battle, making them capable of influencing momentum rather than only providing raw power.<\/p>\n
