>>48250550I wanna talk about cool things Shadow did, cause its fun to reminisce.
Back in Shadow's early & mid levels he had the move Beat Up, which at times turned encounters into himself, Speedwagon, and Stron (And once Brent) just doing this

Shadow being a Weavile in PTU is mostly a curse not a blessing, his typing is terrible in a game where you fight in 8v8s where everyone has 6+ moves and crazy coverage. So he ended up picking up the move Counter just if some BS showed up and low and behold it did! During the trek up to Arceus, we ran into a Fighting Angel, that ran in and High Jump Kicked Shadow as hard as it could, Shadow without missing a beat used Counter just barely surviving the HJK's damage and dealing somewhere around 300 damage through the Counter instantly killing that angel by ripping its leg off its body. We love our bloody boy!
He saved us more than a few times in the actual Arceus fight too. While fighting Arceus [Flying], Arceus and its many hands had us on the ropes as it kept copying all of our moves with Mirror Move, but Shadow came rushing in teleporting around the Arceus' (Shadow learned Teleport from Mew) and proceeded to Triple Axel three of the hands killing three of them and saving the entire party from a TPK. Then later on the Arceus [Bug] battle he got revived from our NPC allies, ran in, did an acrobatic double backflip, pulled out his revolver and started unloading shots into Arceus' hands saving Brent, Haley, and Donny who were all restrained and pinned down by webs.
Shadow can be a bit standoffish from time to time, but man if he doesn't have the biggest balls in the party I don't know who does.
I'm also mad he never got a Mega Evolution/Super Form, he deserved it!
