>Enemy NPC keeps spamming Protect
>Enemy Pokemon is slow as fucking shit but Protect still gets priority in order to make all your attacks not hit

They use Detect most of the time since most mons that get protect only do so through TMs, which most NPCs are too dumb to use

One time in the Battle Maison super triples, the enemy Mienshao used Wide Guard six times in a row without failing. Apparently, the chances of it working decrease by half each time you use it before selecting a new move. Worst part is that it did block my mega Gardevoir's Hyper Voice each time.

It does not fail when used consecutively. Same goes for Quick Guard.

Double Protects for the win are so insanely clutch. Because they're literally only be used as a last-ditch Hail Mary effort, it's goddamn delightful when it pays off.

I wish there was one. That way I could have Yanmega use protect and detect and speed boost all day.
