I know that post from the forums you are pointig out here, Dragon. If I understood things correctly, it'd go like this:
- My Pokemon uses Fake Out having +1 Priority, it flinches the foe.
- The foe is flinched, so he cannot make an action.
- Another Fake Out, another flinch if successful.
- The foe is flinched again.
- End of the Round for me, as I'll never use Fake Out more than twice. The foe can attack now.
In a single battle this feels very weird as why should the foe fall for the same trick two times in a row, but in a double battle such a thing sounds relatively believable as there are two targets. While one is flinched, the other can still attack or buff/debuff.
Still I'd like to hear GM's input about this, I don't think using Fake Out twice in Round1 is silly at all. Nasty and annoying, yes, but given me and my chara enjoy mischievous tricks that aren't possible in the handheld games, it's plausible. Without aid via additional dice in Accuracy Roll coming from support moves from battle partners for my Espurr such an action is very likely to fail anyway.
