Pokémon cannot attempt to flee from Trainer battles or battles during [[Island challenge|trial]]s. In the [[Generation II]] games only, the player cannot attempt to flee from Pokémon encountered as traps in the [[Team Rocket HQ|Team Rocket Hideout]], the [[GS Ball]] {{p|Celebi}}, the [[Tin Tower]] {{p|Suicune}} (in Crystal), and the scripted [[Red Gyarados]]. In the [[Battle Pyramid]], escape is not guaranteed if the player's Pokémon is faster, but the formula calculating the chance of escape is unchanged.
