It’s worth noting that Rocky Helmet, Destiny Bond, Sandstorm or Blizzard, having any Pokemon use Switcheroo or Trick while using Ring Target, and Mold Breaker can stop this strategy.
You would have to sunny day the turn sandstream user comes in, this isn't an even half reliable counter as in Temps vid the opponent was basically saying his move
Big trouble is this is now banned fast, the Showdown team UBER quick banned this strat. But it was absolutely a broken ass thing that we honestly all saw coming if Shedinja was in Gen 9 (thankfully it isn't, but NatDex brought the demon forth)
@@darkyz8538 I guess the Mega Ray should've made that obvious to me. But the fact that Shedinja of all mons had to basically get moved to NatDexAG just because Terastillize mechanic still is a show of that fear we all knew would come if Shedinja was in Gen 9.
For anyone who is confused of what the mechanics are. Wonder guard is the signature ability of Shedinja Wich makes it so that ONLY super effective moves can hit. But since he tera into an electric and got balloon he is basically untouchable. But since it has one hp it can be knocked out by ANY damage inflicting weather conditions like hail or sandstorm.
dumb question but, I'm tryna do a run Shedinja only on Pokemon Y, do you think i can use the same Shedinja as him? If yes then what are the items and moves, thank you
Sadly, you can’t Terastallize to change your type in Pokémon Y, so you can’t make the invincible Shedinja shown here in Pokémon Y. But you can use Focus Sash to make your Shedinja survive an extra hit, and use Shadow Sneak for priority with Swords Dance against opponents that can’t damage you. Good luck on your challenge run!
@@ecgameblastkids there's a small issue, i have some kind of hacks on my DS that lets me do whatever i want with the pokemon, change type, moves, nature, etc, but the only issue is that it gives Shedinja 11 hp and i can't make it lower for some reason
Ah, gotcha. I’m not really familiar with hacking. Based on what you said, though, I think I can still help you out. :) The Shedinja in the video is Electric type and holding an Air Balloon, making it immune to direct attacks. However, that Shedinja still has 1 HP, meaning status conditions (like Poison) and Weather (like Sandstorm) can 1-shot Shedinja anyway. But since you would have 11 HP on your Shedinja, you could stand some turns against those status conditions and Weather, making it better in the long run. I have heard, though, that Shedinja is hard-coded to always have only 1 HP, and that it just doesn’t show up in the editor. Hope this helps you out :)
You gotta run sunny day Shedinja and have a lot of hazards to stop sand, because if you predict sand stream pokemon and manage to damage it, it dies when switching back and ends up not activating sand storm If someone for some reason runs sandstorm as an move, RIP shedinja
Passive damage doesn’t work with substitute. Only things that could’ve worked were sandstorm or like an ability/move that ignores abilities like mold breaker.
@@darkyz8538 well yeah also whirlwind/roar also works with hazards also get the job done that ability that bypasses sub and sound moves also bypass a sub
One pokemon with a status move, one pokemon with priority and one with sandstorm, oh! and knockoff that's a good one too. If you prep your team properly gimik can't really do anything.
The fact that the legendary spammers don't know about shedinja abillity just shows how they simply searched the strongest pokemons and didn't cared about anything else.
You have to be a God in order to use Sunny Day at the right time. Unless your opponent just announes to the heavens and earth that he will kill you with pocket sand.
I saw this video an tried to play anythong goes gen 9 pokedex to troll with my fave Pokemon Shedinja. Just only to finding out that anything goes was removed, Shedinja banned from Ubers and Dynamax and Gigamax removed from the national dex...
I’m just imagining that Mould Breaker, Worry Seed, Simple Beam, etc are just sitting in the corner of the room, crying because no one uses them anymore except to dispatch levitate mons or stop unaware. They legit override Wonder Guard with no extra cost.
