[Legends: Arceus] Difference between "hard-hitting stance" and "Power boost"?

So Lilligant's Victory Dance move description says:
The user performs a dance to usher in victory. This raises the user's offensive and defensive stats and increases the damage dealt by the user's moves by 50 percent.

After using this move, I checked the status screen during battle and saw this:

Primed (lasts three turns): The Pokémon has adopted a hard hitting stance, increasing the damage it deals with its moves (by 50%)
Power Boost (lasts three turns): The Pokémon's offensive stats are raised, boosting its Attack and Sp. Attack stats.

So what is the difference between Primed and Power Boost buffs? Or is it just the same effect with a different name so they can stack? What would be better for Pokémon like Aipom which can learn Double Hit and Nasty Plot?
