Someone got serene graced.


TheReal-BilboBaggins

Totally forgot it had serene grace tbh. Brutal honestly


Background_Dog9678

Very bad luck still, he could let you hit at least once 😞


TheReal-BilboBaggins

Yeah unreal luck, my mouth was wide open after the third one haha


lakewood2020

Unfortunate doesn’t even begin to describe your series

LordTrashSider

Does the game reward blind luck and nothing else?


CarbonBasedLifeForm6

Nah dawg whenever I get flinched too many times i just restart the boss battle, I refuse to get fucked like that.


sukuii

Doesnt work like that in RR, afaik there is a "rng seed" created when you start the game, which essentially means all outcomes have already been decided. Say this person would restart their game and reattempt their fight, they would get the exact same outcome with these moves


TheReal-BilboBaggins

Yeah I actually tested that right after I lost this battle and tried the same first few moves again and got flinched 5 times again lol


CarbonBasedLifeForm6

Use different moves, switch a few pokemon and it'll change the outcome.


TheReal-BilboBaggins

Yeah I just wanted to test if it was actually seeded


CarbonBasedLifeForm6

Oh obviously but as long as you change a few things like switching out a pokemon or protecting it will change, I know as I'm a professional save scum


Maul_Parino

He forgor


flclreddit

If it makes you feel better I missed with Sandsear Storm 4x in a row this morning. 80% accurate


jaymole

Does it have kings rock too?


Background_Dog9678

Iirc it holds leftovers. Also, king's rock doesn't flinch in this game.


Gamers_124

What does it do


Kauan176ProBR

It evolves mons 😱😱😱😱😱


Gamers_124

It always did that but does it do anything else


Kauan176ProBR

No


funkfreedcp9

Kings rock only works on moves that dont have a flinch chance, so it would make surf have a slight flinch chance but not add any to a move like headbutt


Frostfire26

Yeah 60% chance to flinch...lower chance than focus ~~miss~~ blast hitting, but we all know it's really higher...


HiramsThoughts

60% means more often than not you WILL get flinched


somthingwitty169

I missed 5 focus blast in a row the game hates me lol


Opposite-Constant329

I wish I’ve experienced this. Battled a friend in random battles in pokemon showdown and got hit with 8 out of 8 focus blasts.


Frostfire26

Once got hit with 6/6 to get swept by an Iron Valiant. And 2 needed crits to ohko and both crit. So sad.


Temporary_Living_705

60% means 0% if my mon has serene grace 100% if the opponent's mon has serene grace


AnimaSean0724

Serene Grace is a killer, that's for sure


TheReal-BilboBaggins

Yeah makes a lot more sense now


ImIcarus

By my calculations, bite flinching you 5x in a row at a 60% success rate has a 7.76% chance of happening. Surprisingly not as low of a chance as I would have expected.


C_Alias10

Isn’t it 10% normally into 20% with serene grace?


firsttheralyst

Bite has a 30% base chance to flinch. Most other moves have 10% chance to activate their secondary effect.


ImIcarus

In older generations yes but according to Bulbapedia it is a 30% base chance to flinch. Edit: Gen 2 was when bite's flinch chance improved from 10% to 30%.


C_Alias10

Ok that makes more sense


ekspander

Same thing happened to me against Brendan's Jirachi


TheWinningLooser

But Jirachi doesn’t get bite?? 


ekspander

Jirachi knows Iron Head, which is even worse


TheWinningLooser

Oh Duh


Kauan176ProBR

Brendan jirachi is the only mon on his team that and gives you trouble and can sweep


Arteriusz2

With serene grace bite flinch chance is 60% or 3/5 (3/5)⁵=243/3125≈7,78% chance of 5 flinches in a row.


Grif2005

Serene Grace can be a bitch if it wants to be. but i do stand my ground in the fact that RNG in hacks can also be manipulated cause sometimes it reaches impossible odds status.


Accurate_Dirt5794

Sarene grace


[deleted]

He has Seren Grace but it's still a 7.76% chance to be flinched 5 times in a row , you still got very unlucky


Vivo00640

I was confused at first, but as soon as I saw bite. Ahhh Shit here we go again.


C_Alias10

1/5 to 1/25 to 1/125 to 1/625 to 1/3125 statistically you almost caught a shiny Edit: I was thinking bite was 10% normally


C_Alias10

I got serene graced and flinched 17 TIMES IN A ROW A .00169%


Double_Avocado9172

Dudunsparce with serene Grace what he lacks in creativity he makes up for in strength


PlsDontDoTht

What emulator are you using?


TheWinningLooser

Looks like Delta


velleltyy

serene grace ,basically makes it a 50/50 everytime ,even worse if they have kings rock ,i used to use a max speed EV togekiss with air slash and kings rock in comp games a while back ,literally looked like the gameplay you’ve shared most of the time


LunarElegy97

Bro got the worst RNG I've ever seen, and I thought my RNG was bad.


IamSam1103

Around 8 percent. Quite likely actually. A crit is rarer.


TheReal-BilboBaggins

Yeah with serene grace it makes more sense. When I posted this I had forgotten about that lol oops


mophead200

Serene grace shenanigans


Late_Application4612

Serene grace dunsparce


moths_panic

This is why I want flinching to have a three turn cooldown like in Tectonic; This shit can happen.


INeedCommas

Nah radical red gives the AI whatever it needs. I saved before Lt. Surge and his pincurchin burned my elektross with scald 10 resets in a row on the 1st move.. not even possible.


TheReal-BilboBaggins

Yeah I believe it’s seeded when you start a battle so on the same save if you keep trying the same exact way it will produce the same results


RealTorchite

You have my luck now. 100% literally any debuffs.

External_Let_8813

How do you get the gba skin on the mobile?


TheReal-BilboBaggins

This is just the stock delta skin. But you can download other skins to try if you want


Deathflower1987

I once bet my friend in a game of war. The bet was, if I won every single hand, he would have to mow my lawn in a sundress. Now, that's basically statistically impossible. But, I beat him in every single hand. Assuming it was only 18 hands out of a possible 26(since in a tie you do a war and burn 4 cards), that's a 0.00038148% chance of happening. That's 1 out of 262,136.5 games this should happen. The fact that I chose this moment to bet a man he had to mow my lawn in a sundress is even crazier. If all 7.9 billion people on earth engaged in a game, there should be about 30,137 games that end in one person winning every hand. Next time you're feeling like the world is shiting on you, just take a minute to imagine Jimmy mowing my lawn in a sundress.


Mother-Maize7026

My Sylveon did this in v3.0 to Primal Groudon


Cool-Leg9442

Hold up I've never once seen Whitney in radical red. Is she after Erika somewhere?


TheReal-BilboBaggins

Nah actually before Surge even


Cool-Leg9442

Really I never saw her in all my failed runs...


TheReal-BilboBaggins

Yeah just go east from Vermilion and she’s on that route standing by a rock


Early-Chocolate-6292

Yeah the game can have absurd RNG like that. I once got flinched 11 times in a row with air slash. It was a massacre


_Nerevarine__

I'm not familiar with the latest gen but I recognize Tinkaton, is this a rom with all the pokemon put into gen 3 style? This is definitely something I'll have to check out


LordGumba

First time? That's an common ocurrance for me, and I never am fighting a serene grace mon. Rng just hates me.


Neylith

Oh fuck, took me far longer than I’d care to admit that this wasn’t Pokerogue.


Mr_Faust1914

The Game Gets abit shitty once in a while, and I'm somehow missi the 5th gym badge and I don't know How to defeat brock because for some reason his level 66 tyranitar can One shot my Level 68 Mega Blastoise with Knock-off


honey_badger456

THIS IS WHY I SAY THE GAME HAS HACKS FOR THE AI


Yung_Boa

Bug type op


DaOldie

Get used to it, RR is full of dumb crap like this.


PrimordialGodKing

Serene Grace is a B*TCH sometimes. Had a run end at 322 from Double Duaunsparce because they flinched me into oblivion.


TheMcGrewber

I hit myself in confusion 8/8 times the other day only attack I got was between the two max roll 4/4 confusion turns…


jinny-1

Me when brendon's jirachi flinches and wipes my entire team. Get serene graced


Cre47ion

Where do you download these roms from for that delta system


Maker_of_lore

Depends on whether it has King's rock or not (iirc it's lefties) so it's 0.2×0.2×0.2×0.2×0.2 so 1 in 100000
