No l, they don't. The fainting is an effect of the base move, ana as such it doesn't carry over. It just becomes a physical Breakneck Blitz with its own effect. The only difference between using Tackle and Explosion as the base is the power of the resultant Z-move. And z-explo isn't that OP anyway, it has 200 bp and several other high power moves also reach that number.
They most likely work of a different flag, like how mega evolution can only be triggered by one pokemon in a battle. They rely on PP in the way that they use up 1 PP of the move you're trying to use with and it will fail if you don't have PP for said move.
Status Z-moves don't lose their priority, damaging ones do. Status Z moves function normally and in their original priority bracket. It's just that they get an additional effect that triggers right before the execution of the original effect.
Catastropika, Malicious Moonsault, Soul-Stealing 7-Star Strike, and Pulverizing Pancake make contact, and every other Z-Move has no flags. King's Rock isn't a flag so whether or not that can activate would need testing (assuming the Z-Move is hacked into a moveslot; obviously you can't hold King's Rock and a Z-Crystal).
This can mean
Assault Vest doesn't actually prevent the holder from executing Status moves; it prevents you from selecting Status moves for use. Taunt on the other hand prevents both selection and execution, so can Dancer use something like Dragon Dance while taunted?
This is clearly a yes, as with any other effect calling a move the attack is coming from Oricorio so it will calculate damage normally.
Sleep is the only status he can be afflicted with and electric terrain prevents sleep so I'd imagine he's just immune to status under electric terrain.
As far as we know, galvanise still gets it, so I guess it's safe to assume other ate-abilities too have it.
All + priority moves, including those from prankster.
Whoa! Do you have any visual confirmation? That's just amazing!
Im assuming its for targeting status moves like wisp or twave. It would not stop a sableye from using recover.. thoughts?
you can test this in the current gen. most likely it hasnt been changed. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Grounded
The text reads ALL sound based moves are water type. No one has confirmed this yet but i really think that Primarina has a niche against hyper voices and boomburst users. Even the ones with -ate abilities. I imagine Liquid voice supersedes the -ate abilities. Basically Primarina Liquid Voice will always resist damaging sound moves. its like an anti meta type thing Primarina is doing that follows the trend of this generation. very interesting.
