When a Pokémon is burned, its Atk stat is shown as being halved (rounded down), which is misleading and inaccurate, as burn halves physical attack damage and not the Atk stat itself.
Situations were this can be misleading include using Body Press (which uses Def but still gets its damage halved due to Burn), rounding error (165Atk burn is not equivalent to 82Atk as the burn reduction is applied after stats calculation) and Guts/Facade.
