Hey! I know powering up increases the HP of a Pokemon, but does it do anthing else like improve its attack stat?

Powering up a Pokemon increases it's level, and level affects the CP Multiplier / CPM stat, which is basically how much of your base stat your Pokemon uses. Your base stat always remains the same, you're just using a larger portion of it when you level up.
As an example, the CPM for level 20 is 0.5974 so your Pokemon will effectively have 59.74% of it's base stats, while at level 40 the CPM value is 0.79, so your Pokemon uses 79% of it's base stats.
