As of Generation V, Multi-Hit moves (e.g. Icicle Spear, Tail Slap) hit with a ratio of 2:2:1:1, instead of the 3:3:1:1 observed in older generations.

"Confirmed Multi-hit moves now have 33.3% chance to hit either 2 or 3 times and 16.6% to hit either 4 or 5 times"

Oh. Cool. The only downside is that now they average to 3⅙ hits per use, which isn't a nice integer. :(
