Pokemon: Entrainment Shedinja Tactic.

in #gaming8 years ago

So, Pokemon. One of the most interesting abilities is the Signature ability of Shedinja, Wonder Guard.

For those who don't know, Wonder Guard makes Shedinja Immune to all Damage Except for Super Effective Moves.

However, You cannot Remove the ability off of Shedinja so you can't Give Shedinja Sturdy, and you cannot Give Wonder Guard to other Pokemon with the normal Methods, Skill Swap does not work, and Trace, While it does work, is unreliable, so the only other method would be Entrainment. Problem, Shedinja does not Learn Entrainment, However I found a Work around, and that is the Fact that Shedinja can learn Mimic.

So the Idea is to have a Shedinja and an Audino in the Field, In turn 1 have Shedinja use Protect, and Audino use Trick Room, (Trick room Reverse Speed Stats so Slower Pokemon go first in battle) and in turn 2 have Audino use Entrainment to give Healer to an opposing Pokemon, and have Shedinja Either use Mimic on Audino to Learn Entrainment, or take out any threats Quickly before they knock out Shedinja.

After Shedinja learns Entrainment you are good to go.

Now Keep in Mind, using Entrainment does not work on Pokemon with the Abilities Truant, Multitype, RKS System or Zen Mode. However it Does work on Slow Start, and Defeatist. So If you got a Regigigas or Archeops in the Back, you can Remove their abilities, The downsides that come with their old abilities, and make them stronger with the best ability in the game.

Other Pokemon that works well are Pure Electric Types with an Air Balloon or Magnet Rise, Dark/Poisons types holding an Air Balloon, Audino itself Really Benefits from Wonder Guard and it gets even better Benefit as Mega Audino, and finally Dark/Ghost Types.

Now This Tactic is Super Hard to Pull off, but it's Super Satisfying to actually Pull it off.

Now this Tactic does have weaknesses, for one if the foe knocks out either Shedinja or Audino before Shedinja learns Entrainment or uses Entrainment on Audino then you have failed, Secondly, this only works in Doubles, and Mold Breaker/Turboblaze/Terravolt all Counter Wonder Guard.

But hey, Using a Tactic that is Different from the usual "Meta" can be super fun.

So the Point of this Blog? to tell you to Stray away From Usual Metas from time to time, even outside of Pokemon, and you can have a ton of fun, plus you can even Find a new Meta, and that's always fun.

So. I'm Ultra, see you all later.
