Pratfall is a recurring ability in the Dragon Quest series.

Appearances

Dragon Quest VII

Making its debut, it is learned by advancing to Rank 3 of the Jester vocation (Rank 1 in the 3DS and Reimagined remakes) and dodges any physical attacks from monsters for 1 turn, costing 0 MP to use. In the game's Reimagined remake, it acts mostly the same, but now boosts the user's charm with each successful doge and costs 5 MP to use.

Dragon Quest IX

Learned after investing 16 skill points into the Minstrel's Litheness skill tree, it acts differently from VII, targeting a group of enemies and will put them in a state of laughter if successful, costing 0 MP to use once again.

Dragon Quest X

Learned when 4 skill points are invested into the Litheness skill tree, it can make 1 enemy laugh through the pan falling on head gag and raises the user's Tension by 1 level, if successful and costs 2 MP to use. In the Offline version of the game, it is learned by the Hero in the Minstrel vocation at level 2 and already learned by Distan when he joins the party via his Junk skill tree, in addition to being used by Naburetto when he fights alongside the party.
