Strike: Flinch (Japanese: 命中時ひるみ付与 Grant Flinch Chance During Direct Hit) is a family of skills in Pokémon Masters EX.

Effect

When the Pokémon successfully lands an attack on the target, it has a chance of making the target flinch. If the Pokémon uses a move with the multistrike effect tag, such as Bullet Seed or Icicle Spear, each successful hit will have its own chance of making the target flinch. The skill can range from Strike: Flinch 1 to Strike: Flinch 9, with higher numbered skills resulting in a higher chance of activation after each hit. Strike: Flinch 9 will always make the target flinch after the first successful hit. Currently, only Strike: Flinch 1 is available on scoutable sync pairs. The skill applies to the Pokémon's usual attack moves, including buddy moves, but not sync moves or max moves.
