Wonder Guard

[Lolaroflmao]

If you use Skill Swap on Shedinja, will you be able to hit it and will you get Wonder Guard?

that would be a nice counter on Greta...

Actually yes. I tried that with Alakazam and it beat it with Confusion.

NO, you can´t, DON´T ANSWER WHEN YOU DON´T KNOW!

The only way to obtain wonder guard is with trace, so the only pokémon that can have it is porygon 2 and gardevoir (along with their pre-evos).

Skill swap and role play won´t work in shedy.

i didnt know trace worked

Yes, it's quite annoying if shedinja is first in your party and something with trace gets sent out first **grumble grumble**
Theoretically since skill swap is a psychic move, and since it's not super effective to shedinja, then wonderguard should block it.

This would be a good theory, but I think that wonderguard is programed to be blocked. I think that if gardevoir traces WGuard and uses skill swap, in any pokémon it won´t work, but it´s just a thought.

Try with Nidoking and his posion point. You can also kill Shedinja with confuse attack

 

[Praetor]

can focus band work on shedinja?

 

[Volteon]

I believe yes, but when I used on it the 10% never worked.

 

[DarkSpectrum]

it does work, but i wouldn't bet any money on it.
Of course anyone that uses shedinja has to be a gambler since it has so many weaknesses that any pokemon should at least have a move to work on it

Shedinja's Wonder gaurd cannot be copied with Skill Swap. This may be because Sablye is Ghost/Dark, so if it ever had Wonder Gaurd, it would be nearly impossible to defeat.

 

[cxoa]

so if wonder guard is traced, id imagine if you skill swapped you would in fact swap trace, and not wonder guard, when i got a while ill set it up and see what happens, to be quite honest im not sure whether it would work, i think maybe it would, but the requirements are probably never going to be met ingame, or even competatively. If you think about it you would need,

A pokemon that has trace as an ability, that also learns skill swap, with your opponent using shedinja, in a double battle, assuming you want to pass it on to somthing else.

Based on the difficulty id say it should work, if thats your tactic it seems highly risky to gamble on the fact that your opponent has a shedinja in his party

skill swap wont work on shedinja, becuase then sableye would be a god.

 

[cxoa]

i was informed by volteon, that it can be traced, not that ive tried.

 

[Nightdawn]

you can´t swap/trace wonder guard or anything!!!!
and actually focus bad gives Shedinja 25 %
king´s rock gives him 52 %
Lax incense lowers opponet accu by 25% so just pick one they are all good
False Swipe is a recommended move for Shedinja
Shedinja is best with Quirky Nature i think

I think thats right,because if you can skill swap it then sablye will be affected by bug moves only.

Arrgh... Thread of SPAM...

Sableye has no weaknesses unless one uses Forsight -> Fighting Attack...

no, it is good with lonely and naughty natures.
