Suicune is fast asleep.
Suicune used Sleep Talk!
Suicune used Scald!
The opposing Dekubaba (Trevenant) avoided the attack!

Scald has 100% accuracy and I thought that 100% accuracy moves cannot miss... also my Suicune didn't have an accuracy drop and Trevenant didn't have an evasion boost.


Am I missing something or can 100% accuracy moves miss? Or was it a glitch?
You can see the battle here and it happens at Turn 33, I'm BauzuKa (my brother's account).

Copy pasted from your battle log.
Phantom Force, like a few other moves, gives a turn of semi-invulnerability. There was no glitch, there was nothing wrong - you just failed to realise that he had used Phantom Force.

There is another way it could happen though not here .  two hold items, lax incense and bright powder lower opponents accuracy by ten percent , any move that doesn't avoid accuracy moderators can miss
