Substitute
He's the living (or not that much) definition of a gimmick.
You get him a weird way and has a weird way to play. I don't think he's supposed to be good or ever will, if anything, I believe they made him to "make a point" with pokémon abilities, of how powerful they can be.

Just Game Freak Logic, they're the same people who gave Rayquaza a Mega Evolution without mega stone.

If you Baton Pass a substitute onto Shedinja, the substitute will calculate damage based on the HP of the Pokemon that created the Substitute and Shedinja's Defense/Special Defense.
Anyone remember when they first got this thing? Nincada evolves and becomes two different pokes! I was floored, personally.
Shedinja is my second favorite Pokémon

Also, Ditto. It keeps it's HP of ditto but takes the stats of the target.
I fucking hate how situational he is. It's not like I expected that one Pokemon to know pursuit when I thought it was an acceptable opponent for him.
I mean fuck I love his design to death but having him die to everything is not a risk I enjoy trying to manage.

Exactly what happened to me, and Shedinja eventually became my favorite.

Yeah, but its worth it for when he does something like completely wall Kyogre or Garchomp.
