Where:

n is the total number of heads that Hydreigon currently has, defined by its sprite,

d is the amount of damage calculated before applying Lernean,

r is the remaining number of hits to be executed. This number includes the hit that is currently being calculated.


If none of these attacks are negated or blocked by effects such as Substitute then the total damage multiplier that the attacker experiences is 1.15 + 0.075 × (n - 5).
