Effects

Acrobatics deals damage, however, if the user is not holding an item, its power doubles to 110.

If the user is holding a Flying Gem, it is consumed before the Pokémon attacks, so it receives both boosts and increases Acrobatics' power to 143 (or 165 in Generation 5). Once the Gem is consumed Acrobatics' power for the rest of the battle will be 110.

Z-Move effects

When a Pokémon is holding Flyinium Z and uses its Z-Power, Acrobatics turns into Supersonic Skystrike and has base power 100.
