Critical Hit

Critical Hits do not happen naturally in PMDO. Instead, moves with a "high critical hit ratio" are the only ones that can crit at all. Items, abilities, etc can still boost the critical hit ratio, which would give moves that normally do not crit the ability to do so.

Critical hits do 1.5x normal damage, while ignoring the user's offensive drops and the target's defensive boosts.

The chance of landing a critical hit is as follows:

Change	Chance
+0	No chance.
+1	1/4
+2	1/3
+3	1/2
+4	Always crit

Modding

Crit chance levels can be adjusted by editing the Universal Data, and modifying the CritLevelTableState in Universal States.
