What Gives?

I had a Meowth that used Fake Out on Dustox in Pearl, but Dustox didn't flinch. Why do you think that this happened? - unsigned comment from Nidolord500 (talkcontribs)

Did it use it just after it came out (the Meowth, that is)? TTEchidnaFire echyGSDS! 05:55, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

Dustox's ability prevents any added effects from attack moves. Flinching is an added affect, so Dustox's ability negated it. - unsigned comment from Editor Sam (talkcontribs)

Maylene's Hitmontop

Umm when you verse Maylene in the Battleground her Hitmontop always uses fake out. Yet, according to this page Hitmontop can't learn it as he mentioned at all. What gives? @_@
