Me and someone in Skawo's discord were discussing how Power Bounce works in Pro Mode. They said that it multiplied the damage by 2/3 (or 0.66) and rounded up or down depending. I said what I said in my Tubba Heart battle, being Base, then 75% , then 50%, then 33%, then 25%, and everything rounds down (The next bounce did no damage so I couldn't judge)

However, while I was right about the base and 75%, the third bounce did... 11 damage? That almost doesn't seem right. Then I did 8, then 6, oddly enough.

But then, as I was typing this same description, I remembered that Ice Power is calculated after all the calculations, so all the bounces are done with 2 extra damage actually.

So let's calculate again:
18 Damage base
75% is 13.5 which goes to 13
18 * 0.66 = 11.88, which rounds up to 12, therefore what they said is incorrect

So I win :v

50% of 18 is 9
33% is 6
25% is 4.5 which rounds down to 4
And then I missed the action command so I did no damage on the next one, also got capped at the 25% hit on the second Power Bounce. Nice

Might experiment further with this in the future, but I just wanted to get this video out real quick
