So, with moves like Dragon Dance, or Swords Dance, it says:

Boosts attack and speed 1 stage.
boosts attack 2 stages.


By stage, does it mean that stat goes up from, say: 180 to 181 while the boost is in play?


Or is it what it's attack'll be at it's next level, so my Feraligatr with Power Item + Adamant nature will go from 180 attack to 197 attack with one Dragon Dance?

If stats are increasing, I believe that each "stage" is 50% of the current stat. For example, if your Pokémon had 200 attack and 200 Speed, and used Dragon Dance, They would both be at 300. Ergo, Swords Dance effectively doubles your Attack Stat.

However, if stats are decreasing, each "stage" is 33%, followed by 50% (of the original stat) and then a further 10% of the original stat for each stage. I could be wrong though.

If you need any further info, please use the Quick Questions thread, which is where things like this should be asked.
