Move #7,312 (Beached-Fish-Flop)

This is a classic distraction move and has no actual underlying combat merit apart from throwing the attacked off-guard. For effective deployment, make sure you look as much like a beached fish as possible. Do erratic flaps and audio commitment also helps. Grunting and gasping spasmodically are particularly effective. The distraction impact can be substantial and is likely to give you a crucial few seconds to plan your next move.
