How to calculate full cycle DPS

Help me calculate full cycle DPS.

Floor(½∗Power∗Atk/Def∗STAB∗Effective)+1

Attack=(BaseAttack+AttackIV)∗CpM
Defense=(BaseDefense+DefenseIV)∗CpM

that's what I have for the damage formula.

To get the full cycle, I would use

(Quick move damage * Number of quick moves until 100 energy+Charge move damage) / (Time until 100 energy + cooldown of the charge move * number of charge move bars)

Is that the correct way to do it?

Yes

1. Your implicit assumption is that there is no energy gained from receiving energy. Need to state that before proceeding.

2. Numerator: should use "number of charge move bars * charge move damage" instead of just "charge move damage" since you are looking at the big 100 energy cycle.

3. Also, the denominator of yours formula is not strictly correct as the energy cost for 3-bar move is 33 but not 100/3=33.333. The better is to use 100/33 as the "number of charge move bars" for 3-bar moves.

1. Yes, it doesn't matter currently.
2. I do actually, I should have written total damage of charged moves, I abbreviated it in the question.
3. thanks, that helps.

another question: Is STAB 1,4 currently?

Because if so, my level 38 15 A Tyranitar would deal 8 damage to an alakazam raid boss.

stab is 1.2

alright, I read it here on the Q&A, probably someone who was misinformed.

Both wrong. STAB is back to 1.25. It was 1.25 originally, was reduced to 1.2 when NE/SE were changed from 1.3 to 1.4, and went back to 1.25 when Gen3 came out.
