I seriously hope this new system of showing type effectiveness doesn't screw over Shedinja. Part of the fun with using it is watching noobs lose their marbles trying to figure out how to damage it.

He still can't be defeated in multi battles, so don't sweat over it.

ffs, what a nightmare

Classic retard.

How do either of those protect it from sneaky stones?
>>
>>26749781
How is sneaky stones a threat when he's already in?
>>
>>26749781
If you don't know anything about competitive, don't comment.

>>26749781
how autistic can someone be?

>>26749808
Ask your mother.
>>
wonder guard now also prevents all secondary damage
Y/N?
>>
>>26749829
Y
>>
>>26749829
N
Right now it's almost useless, but I'm pretty sure doing that would break it.
>>
>>26749815
True, but what are the chances for someone to carry Roar or Whirlwind in a match? If you want to play it safe, just set up Final Gambit for your first two Pokemon, then build Shedinja.
>>
>>26749829
Y. It has too many weaknesses counting 5 types super effective against it, weather, burn, toxic, spikes, toxic spikes and stealth rocks.
Removing weather of that list would make it broken.
>>
>>26749854
wouldn't make it broken, I meant to say
>>
>>26749835
if it was still weak to super effective secondary damage such as stealth rock or burn it could be balanced
just having sandstorm and hail be pre-emptive sheddy killers makes him worthless
>>
>>26749836
I have roar on my team because it's hilarious to roar my opponents to death. I'd love for some faggot to try this on me.

>>26749389

>>26749411
>Skill Swap

Oh I know where this is going
>>
>>26749836
>not just going in with the bare minimum
>not being immune to roar
>>
>>26749389
I've got a feeling it'll be removed for competitive. Like the Amie boosts.
>>
>>26749411
Couldn't you also just paralyze your own shedinja and not have to worry about Safeguard going down?
>>
>>26753500
Yeah, but it didn't dawn on me at the time. This was like 6 months ago.
>>
>>26753603
I just tried out your strategy, works well.
I added Trevenant for Forest's Curse since it can still be leech seeded.

>>26749829
Counterpoint:
Because Shedinja has 1 hp (meaning it dies to one instance of damage, no exceptions) and because Shedinja has no immunity via typing or ability etc. To any source of passive damage in the game, what if Wonder Guard just granted total direct damage immunity and passive damage was the only way to harm Shedinja?
>>
>>26755076
this has been theorymon'd since magic guard was introduced

it's probably a good idea desu, shedinja deserves it. at the very least it should prevent entry hazard damage and weather damage.
>>
>>26755076
Magic Guard should be combined with Wonder Guard and given to Shedinja, the nigga has nothing else
>>
>>26755299
nah, Wonder Guard should be the INVERSE of Magic Guard.
>>
>>26749389
>>26751175
Hopefully they'll be an option to disable it
>>
>>26755076
That would be fucked up in current vgc meta.
>only weather types arent dealing any damage
>prankster PAR your own shedinja to be immune to meme gobin's will'o'wisp
>add a grass type to it with trick or treat in case of random leech seeds
>entry hazards in vgc
Mold breaker and skill swap still exist tho
>>
>>26749836
>True, but what are the chances for someone to carry Roar or Whirlwind in a match?

How low are you ranked? That's pretty much a staple on every wall that can learn it so they don't get boosted on

when will they give my boy complete and total immunity to all status effects
>>
>>26749411
I know nothing about competitive. Why does M-Metagross Meteor Mash the player's own Kyurem?
>>
>>26758550
He's probably just some kind of dipshit.
>>
>>26758580
Yeah at first I thought there was some kind of insane strategy but then I saw him throw everything to kill the sturdy Shedinja three turns in a row...
