On Smogon's Movedex:

Focus Energy (Japanese: きあいだめ Fighting Spirit Improvement) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation I.

Effect

Generation I

Focus Energy worked incorrectly in Generation I. While it was intended to multiply the user's critical hit ratio by four, it instead divides the critical hit ratio by four. Focus Energy will be removed by switching or Haze. The effect of Focus Energy cannot stack, and it will fail if the user is already under its effect.

In Stadium, Focus Energy was fixed to increase the user's critical hit ratio with this formula: (BaseSpeed + 236) / 512*

Generation II

Focus Energy increases the user's critical hit ratio by one stage. This effect can be transferred by Baton Pass.

Haze no longer affects Focus Energy.

Generation III onward

Focus Energy now increases the user's critical hit ratio by two stages instead of one.

Focus Energy can also be used as part of a Pokémon Contest combination, causing certain moves (Arm Thrust, Brick Break, Cross Chop, Double-Edge, Dynamic Punch, Focus Punch, Headbutt, Karate Chop, Sky Uppercut and Take Down) to have their base appeal points doubled if used in the next turn.

Focus Energy can also be used as part of a Contest Spectacular combination, causing certain moves (Aeroblast, Attack Order, Blaze Kick, Cross Poison, Drill Run, Karate Chop, Leaf Blade, Night Slash, Poison Tail, Psycho Cut, Shadow Claw, Spacial Rend and Stone Edge) to gain extra three appeal points if used in the next turn.

If powered up by a Normalium Z into Z-Focus Energy, the user's accuracy is raised by one stage.
