no
this thing needs a mega that gives it Sturdy, and then it needs to have all of its stats min-maxed into Attack and Speed

It being a less common choice is exactly what makes it useful for mind games.

I just want wonder guard to make it immune to entry hazards. It doesn't have to be crazy like magic guard, but just having hazards out is instant death

all we really need is for them to buff safety goggles so that it negates entry hazards for the user

Sorry, unless you do some incredibly gimmicky team that obsessively keeps hazards out, has fini in it to avoid getting status'd which would also keep sheddy from wisping a lot of things, and a weather setter that keeps sand away and you are a master and keeping the momentum going with these slow switch-less conditions then sheddy isn't worth it

This. A Shedinja on your team makes good players play badly. They start obsessing over keeping something to kill it in effect, to the point that they forget to win the battle. If you bring in Shedinja, and immediately switch it out, the opponent will, without fail, show you what on their team can handle it.
Plus, it can function as a wc.

And it doesn't happen often, but it does occasionally happen that a team has no actual way to hurt it, especially rain teams. GG before anyone sends out a Pokemon is a fantastic feeling.

putting a Zoroark on your team makes skilled players overpredict, makes endless double switches, risk their mons by staying in, and generally do a bunch of stupid shit that gives you the upper hand - thinking that everything is your Zoroark they saw in Team Preview
It's amazing.

Tentatively, no. Wonderguard tends to be very resistant to being swapped or transferred.

Remember. Shedinja makes good players play badly. More than one match has gone to the Shedinja player because the opponent wouldn't stop obsessing over hazards, while they wee getting gutted.

I mean you say that but it really can't be that strong or top players would use it. Niche picks exist but the second you lose your defogger shedinja just becomes dead weight. Mimikyu is basically just a better version of shedinja honestly. Just use that instead. Way more consistent, doesn't die to rocks/spikes/status/hail/sandstorm and still functions as a late game sweeper but with the additional bonus of fairy coverage
