The effects of the rainbow and Serene Grace stack, except for chances to [[flinch]] (which can only be doubled once), meaning that when used together they quadruple the chance of additional effects. Internally, the chance of an additional effect is stored in a byte; as such, in Generations V to VIII, if the chance of an additional effect is increased past 255 by a combination of Serene Grace and the rainbow effect, it will overflow and wrap back around from 0. This only matters for Charge Beam, whose 70% chance would become 280%, thus causing it to overflow to 24%, as moves with 100% effect chance which overflow back to 100%. | The effects of the rainbow and Serene Grace stack, except for chances to [[flinch]] (which can only be doubled once), meaning that when used together they quadruple the chance of additional effects.
