Sheninja doesn't need U-Turn. It's perfect just the way it is

Slow U-turns are better than fast U-turns, it's why teleport is such a good move

Just use a Zoroark with a Shedinja on your team.

The problem is that Shedinja dies in one hit, so it can't take a move and switch in the same way that a bulky Pokemon with teleport can.

>>50088298
Ever since LGPE, Teleport allows you to switch out to another team member and it has -6 priority.

Can someone tell me why it's seen such a boost this gen?
I stopped playing competitive years ago, but I don't remember seeing it used much at all in gen 6.
Now it seems like everyone has it.

You obviously wouldn't use it on something that you think has coverage to kill.

Well you don't use Shedinja the same way as any other pokemon. If you send it out to a mon you know can't get past Wonder Guard you basically have a free good switch to whatever it sends out to counter Shedinja.

it punishes u-turn spam from boots users now that rocks can't do the job.
and gen 8 brought triple axel, dual wingbeat, and urshifu, which it also does lots of work against.

Ah, I was assuming it got a stupid buff, but a meta shift makes more sense.

Yes. It works since gen 8 as a negative pirority U-Turn wirh no damage. One of the best moves in the game. Pokemon like slowbro and chansy wall a hit. And you get a free switch in.>>50088305

Yeah. You can switch out with it now, but it has negative priority.

Shedinja shouldn't be getting hit in the first place.
You should switch Shedinja in against something you know can't hurt it, click U-Turn, then when your opponent inevitably switches out to something that can hurt Shedinja, you use U-Turn and switch into a counter to that.

Shedinja is one of those edge cases where gamefuck is actually trying to be careful with what they buff. If Shedinja became too useful everyone and their mother would use it and it could break the game in half. Or it could just be neglect one or the other.

If Shedinja became too useful everyone and their mother would be more prepared for it and it'd loop back around to being useless.

It's the same as Quagsitre, who gets sent where it is needed when some buffer gets out of control, meta changes to remove the buffer and it goes back to Untiered. Shedinja will never break the game because it's piss easy to counter, it just serves to destroy some cancer meta.
