Shadow Claw Effect

Shadow Claw In-Game.jpg

Has the user slash with its blade twice in the designated direction, dealing damage to any opposing Pokémon it hits. The user then does a final rising slash that deals damage to opposing Pokémon it hits and throws them. The boost count increases by one when at least one of the three slashes hits.

How to Use Shadow Claw

Use for Stronger Enemies

Being an All-Rounder, Aegislash still loses to a fight against a well-fed Speedster that can burst it down quickly. If this is the case, pick Shadow Claw to avoid jumping into fights too quickly. Shadow Claw also has a small knock up which can make the enemy Pokemon lose momentum with its attacks.

Always Hit the Final Slash

The most important slash to hit is the third/final slash of Shadow Claw since it's the only slash that increases your boost count.

Shadow Claw Patch History
