I carried this mofo all the way to the E4 and with a ton of trial-and-error learned exactly which Pokemon I could solo with Shedinja and which I'd leave to the rest. Another thing that made it stand out was that as oppose to the rest of my party its name was simply SHEDINJA rather than having a nickname.
