Any good Shedinja counters?

Nov. 24, 2018



I’ve noticed that Shedinja is a gimmick but an interesting one (and devious combined with Soak). However, throughout my searching the only counter I’ve seen is Prankster Whimsicott with Worry Seed. Are there any others that I’m missing?

First, wonder guard Pokemon can be damaged by super effective attacks.

Things that can change or suppress abilities can stop Shedinja. If you’re playing competitive battles, then I think the best way to do this is mold breaker. You can also use mold breaker to restore some kinds of expired food.

Shedinja has exactly 1 HP, so anything that deals damage without attacking will “one-shot” Shedinja. Good ways to deal this kind of damage include stealth rock, spikes, poisoning, burning, leech seed, and sand stream.
