What!? One of the first things they write down on paper is use "protect."
Makes sense though since protect will be the best z move counter. Everybody should have protect. In fact they should make the tm harder to find.

the Z-Moves cant fail, i think they have more priority than Protect
>>29504053
they can fail anon

Wasn't there some text in the demo that said "[Pokémon] couldn't fully protect themselves" or something like that?
Protect is something that works out a lot better in double battles, and I'm not surprised that was the first thing they thought of.

Nope. They can get blocked and they have base 0 priority just like most other moves. They can also miss. The "failed to fully protect itself" is for Shadow Force

Pretty sure that was for the explosion strategy
