Serious Mode

Serious Mode (for lack of a known official name) occurs under certain conditions and removes minor jokes while it is in effect. It is entered automatically in certain circumstances.
== Known Serious Mode Occurrences ==
* When fighting a Boss Monster (Toriel, Asgore, or Asriel).
** With Asgore, the Serious Mode flag is not always cleared properly, and may persist if the protagonist dies or quits.
* During the Genocide Route exclusive fights against Sans and Undyne the Undying.
