Perhaps Protect now damages you if it fails. Or it's some new move.
its possible this is the new failure message for protect & its ilk, right?
Certainly more interesting than "But it failed"

Mercy Main Btw
could this be releated to a new protect function?
If those are the only Totem Pokemon, it may mean that digitalspy was right about there being only 7 Trials in the game.
Text change for Feint maybe? Or a new move that goes thru Protect?
I have a feeling that text appears when you use Protect against a Z-move.
Feint gives the message that the Pokemon fell for the feint according to text file
The damage you take from confusion is not even a problem. It's missing a turn because of it. Missing a turn in Pokemon usually ends up losing you a mon or he match
I fantasize with this, I would just LOVE IT.
Not sure on the effects, but being also auto-setted with an ability makes me gag.
Is there anything that has indicated that all the Island Guardians would share the Fairy type? I know it's been the prevailing sentiment around here, but not sure if there was ever a source for it.
So, now we got an UBall, huh? Okay, let's hope they will be useful. Any guesses on their type?
So battles can now end in draws?
Wait, I think I've figured out one of the 7 Pokémon with an exclusive Z-Move we don't know yet.
First off, a Z-Move animation doesn't change according to the base move. It doesn't matter if the super attack turns out physical or special, the animation is the same (see Thunderbolt/Nuzzle Gigavolt Havoc in the demo).
That being said, I'm pretty sure we've seen two animations for a fighting type Z-Move on the videos shown so far. One used by Lucario - it stands still and its body/aura shoots off multiple fists (iirc this was shown on the Japanese version of the Nintendo Direct that revealed Alolan Ratatta). Another one used by Bewear - it dishes out a single powerful punch (you can see it on the video where Solgaleo/Lunala jump into a warp at the end).
One could argue one of them isn't a fighting type attack, but I think it's extremely unlikely. Z-Moves featured by fighting type mons involving fists and punching?
If we had to bet on who's getting an exclusive Z-Move... does Lucario really need more attention/buffs?
Interesting to note: the english version of that same Nintendo Direct showed Gengar using a Ghost type Z-Move. Was that the generic one or could it be...

Wait, you can't do that in the games already?
I think it was the generic one IIRC.
This might just be for Battle Royal mode. You and I each K.O. one of Timmy's two Pokémon; Timmy loses and we tie with each other.
I think, for at least the past few gens, it's been the one who faints first loses if an attack would faint both parties. So explosion kills you first, so you lose. Recoil I think registers with you first, so you lose. Things like that
Did they confirm it's name was Robinroot?
Cause if so, that shows just how close my nickname for it was, as I was refering to it as Robinhoot for ages now.
No, "Robinroot" is just what folks around here have been calling it since it was spoiled.
Ah, well I guess we were still close then in ideas.
I wonder what they will call it, as the confirmation cements this as my new favorite Pokemon, as Owls are my favorite animal, and before now, the only owl Pokemon we had was Noctowl...
And Noctowl SUCKS.
