About Stat Boosts
Stat Boost items temporarily raise a Pokemon's stats during battle. X Items like X Attack and X Sp. Def are primarily used in-game battles, especially at the Battle Tower and against difficult story bosses.
X Items
X Attack, X Defense, X Sp. Atk, X Sp. Def, X Speed, and X Accuracy each raise their stat by one stage (+50%). Dire Hit boosts critical hit ratio. These items use a turn in battle, so they are best used on setup turns when the opponent cannot KO.
In-Game Strategy
X Items are banned in competitive multiplayer but powerful in Battle Tower and story content. Stacking X items on a bulky Pokemon against weaker opponents creates an unbeatable sweeper. X Speed + X Attack on a physical attacker can solo entire teams.
