What will happen if Mega Kangaskhan uses Power-Up Punch the same turn Aegislash uses King's Shield?

Jun. 26, 2014

Will Kangaskhan get its stats improved then reduced or just reduced?

The actual answer?

Funnily, Qwerty is also wrong

Power-up Punch is afighting type moveAegislashis a ghost typeSo Aegislashis immune to Power-up PunchNeed proof? Look atthis replay

Yeah, King’s Shielddoes not ignore type immunities. So in that case, Fighting and Normal attacks willhave no effect- King’s Shield’s attack lowering effect WILL NOT TAKE PLACE.

Hypothetically if it hit somehow, Parental Bond does not hit twice on King’s Shield. Only the first time.

Let’s see it this way:Power-up Punch increases attack by1 stageKing’s Shield decrases the opponent’s attack by2 stageson physical impactSo on one Power-up punch, the attack will godown by 1 stage(2-1 = 1 lol)Hence ontwo hits(Parental Bond’s courtesy) the attack for Kangaskhan will godownby2.(need I explain?)
