im gonna waste my life away doing some math about pokemon hax. if you count the 5 consecutive flinches, and another flinch on the mienfoo in tcr vs kaboom, the chances are about 0.0729%, or 1/1371.74...
30% is 0.3
[there were 6 flinches in total so 0.3^6]
=0.3^6
__________
=0.000729
[you go 2 decimal places to the right when converting to percentage]
=0.0729%
now lets convert to fraction just for fun
i generally like to do 1/decimal number to get my number converted into fraction so lets do that.
1/0.000729
=1371.74211...
you then make this number the denominator while the numerator is just 1, so its like, 1/1371.74..., this fraction will just go back to equal 0.000729, which stated before is 0.0729%.
its not exact probability since the events is already done, nor were they all a single event, but holy shit thats low. thats some really unfortunate luck for Kaboom, hope him and the Belchsprouts have better luck in future games, as for Snivys, good luck in the future too, with Merritt being a math lord.
