If a [[Focus Sash]], [[Focus Band]], or {{a|Sturdy}} activates before the last strike is dealt, the following strike will cause the defending Pokémon to faint. A Focus Band can still activate repeatedly to prevent fainting, but each chance is independent of the previous one. Each individual strike will activate {{a|Weak Armor}} or a [[Rocky Helmet]]. {{m|Spiky Shield}} and {{m|King's Shield}} only activate once. {{a|Parental Bond}} does not activate when using Comet Punch.
