=====Generation II=====
=====Generation II=====
Grants the moves listed below a ~12% (30/256) chance of causing targets to flinch. Unlike flinching caused by other means in this generation, King's Rock can cause {{status|sleep}}ing and {{status|freeze|frozen}} Pokémon to flinch as well.
Grants the moves listed below a 11.71875% (30/256) chance of causing targets to flinch. Unlike flinching caused by other means in this generation, King's Rock can cause {{status|sleep}}ing and {{status|freeze|frozen}} Pokémon to flinch as well.


Only the final strike of a [[multi-strike move]] has a chance of causing the target to flinch.

=====Generation V onward=====

Grants all attacking moves that do not already have a chance to flinch a 10% chance of causing each target to flinch. This chance is affected by {{a|Serene Grace}} and the rainbow created by {{m|Fire Pledge}} and {{m|Water Pledge}}. King's Rock does not activate {{a|Sheer Force}}, but Sheer Force removes the chance to flinch if the move already has an [[additional effect]].
