So you the dodge is automatic or not ? I dont understand

Seems to be both. Tap the button to dodge, hold the button for a "defence stance". I'd imagine tapping is much more practical while you're in the middle of battle. While you are in the defence stance you can still run around, I think the purpose of this is to give you the ability to move to a better position in the field or to flee.

Well, you dont need to flee if you can dodge everything, unless you cant beat  a too powerful ennemy.

Maybe this is like i thought then : Hold the button works only for little ennemies, but for big ennemies, you have to tap it to doge.
