How it works in Champions
Raises the user's Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed by 1 stage in exchange for the user losing 33% of its maximum HP, rounded down. Fails if the user would faint or if its Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed stat stages would not change.
“The user boosts all its stats by using some of its own HP.”
