What is the King's Rock section supposed to convey? There are errors no matter what the answer is: If it's meant to list how moves were affected in Gen II, then {{m|Absorb}} is wrong; if it's meant to list how moves were affected in Gen III, then {{m|Present}} is wrong; if they're meant to list how moves were affected in Gen IV, then {{m|Dragon Rage}} is wrong. If they're meant to list how moves were affected in Gen V onward, then {{m|Smelling Salts}} and {{m|Fiery Wrath}} are wrong. These lists are not exhaustive, there are numerous errors regardless of what the information is supposed to be. Should it list information from the most recent Generation, namely, "all attacking moves that do not already have a chance to flinch"? What should be done about the King's Rock portion of this infobox? [[User:Exempt-Medic|Exempt-Medic]] ([[User talk:Exempt-Medic|talk]]) 16:09, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

:I would assume it's supposed to be the most recent generation. Comparing Gen IV as listed on [[King's Rock]] with what the infoboxes say, I found the following differences:
* Pound, Absorb, Counter, Leech Life, Mega Drain, Present, Pursuit, Thief, Twineedle, Dragon Rage, Gust, Bug Buzz, Flare Blitz, Fling, Heat Wave, Secret Power, and Wring Out are affected
* Sky Attack, Snore, Waterfall, Rolling Kick, Twister, Brick Break, Revenge, Air Slash, Dark Pulse, Draco Meteor, Dragon Rush, Fire Fang, Ice Fang, Iron Head, and Thunder Fang are not affected
:I will assume Smelling Salts and Fiery Wratch are meant to be affected as of Gen V based on your comment. Are there any other changes from Gen IV that are missing from this list, or any that are inaccurate? Has what moves are affected changed at all since Gen V?
:Been going through these flags as listed on the wiki and there's a lot of information gaps in general. Mirror Move (as noted on its page) does not have a list of what moves are affected, yet alone per-Gen. What other moves are actually affected by the Protect flag? Do King's Rock and Razor Fang share their list of moves affected? Magic Bounce is listed in this template for the "Yes" argument on Magic Coat, but not on the "No" argument. In general, almost no move lists on its page that it has been changed in regards to whether or not these features affect them. :V [[User:WOLKsite|WOLKsite]] ([[User talk:WOLKsite|talk]]) 11:54, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
