Phantom Force Effect

Has the user dash and disappear into darkness, where it hides for a short time. While it is hiding, it cannot move. When this move is used again, the user appears in the designated direction while slashing around itself, dealing damage that ignores Defense and shields to opposing Pokemon it hits and applying a slowing effect to them. If this move hits opposing Pokemon, its cooldown is reduced.

How to Use Phantom Force

Pierce Through Shielded/Durable Opponents

Phantom Force ignores the opponents' shields and Defenses when it hits, dealing true damage to them. This effect is effective against high-durability Pokemon and/or Pokemon that can generate shields since Phantom Force will always deal full damage regardless of how high their Defense is or how large their shields are.

Avoid Damage

Ceruledge can also use Phantom Force to avoid damage. Since the Pokemon disappears and can't be targeted for a while when the move is used, it can completely avoid incoming damage during this time window. This allows Ceruledge to bait opponents and do a counter attack.
