    hi, i'm confused about the ability "technician", where it says it will power up the pokemon's weaker move

    but, what if scizor has more than one "weakest" move?
    for example:
    scizor has:
    swords dance
    silver wind-60 damage
    aerial ace-60 damage
    Hidden Power-60 damage

    would all of these attacks have boosts since they are all the weakest attacks?

    also, would this moveset give scizor any bonuses?
    swords dance
    agility
    giga attack-150 damage
    scissor cross-80
    ^^if so that sCross could do alot of damage O.o
     
    Yep thats what the abilty says, it doesn't matter how powerful the weakest move is I guess

    From smogon-
    Technician - It seems that it has indeed been confirmed that Technician raises the power of moves at basepower 60 and below (inclusive) by 1.5. It also seems to possibly work before STAB.

    Eh... it can turn a 60 into a 90... thats not too bad. Especially if its like a 60 power + a good effect.

    Does it quite matter if it works before STAB? Multiplication is cumulative... so it should be the same no matter where the thing is done.
    I think it would go into where the attack power is. Instead of 60, it would be 90.

    Not too bad of an ability...
     
    I would teach my pokemon all 60 power moves that have a STAB + an awesome effect and go to the Technitian!So I would have all 90 power moves that all have a STAB + an awesome effect!

    yeah, aerial ace, steel wing, metal claw, quick attack, pursuit, are pretty good attacks then
    the only one at exactly 60 base is Aerial Ace and wing attack though =/
    some other attacks from scyther's movepool: fury cutter, false swipe

    what other pokemon know Technician?
