'''{{Status|Flinch}}ing''' is when a Pokémon becomes unable to attack for one turn. The following moves may cause their targets to flinch, but only if the user of the moves hits first. '''Cringing''' is the equivalent condition in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]] series.


If {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Razor Fang}} or {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}} has an effect on a move, there is an additional <code>30% × (100% - probability of causing flinching)</code> chance of causing flinching when using a move on this list and holding the King's Rock or Razor Fang.
These moves are not affected by {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}} or {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Razor Fang}} and ignore those items' flinch chance.
