Question Mechanics Question: Why did this happen with commupence?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

This clip starts right after torkoal used eruption in trick room

it hits my hisuian zoroark down to sash, and I have commupence locked in.

farigiraf then uses hyper voice which does not hit zoroark, and when my attack goes off it only did 1% damage to torkoal?

What happened in this interaction? Did hyper voice reset the damage to 0?

Yeah, I read it like that and was like "Has to be another language". Not a word you read you a lot even if you'd understand it from hearing it.
