PvE Analysis
Recommended moves
- Water Attacker:
Waterfall
Poison Fang - Dark Attacker:
Bite
Crunch
Shadow Sharpedo has a workable ATK stat that helps it dish out appreciable DPS in PvE battles. However, it is widely outclassed by various Water and Dark types, and being extremely glass doesn't help it either. 🤕
⚔️ Raids
Despite doing decent damage, Shadow Sharpedo is way too fragile. Imagine a lowly DEF stat of only 83 that goes further down with the Shadow nerf. It is discouraged using Shadow Sharpedo in any Raid battle.
🛡️ Gyms
Shadow Sharpedo goes down easily even when it takes neutral damage. Not a good Gym defender by any means.
💎 The best PvE moves for Shadow Sharpedo are: Waterfall and Hydro Pump (Water) Bite and Crunch (Dark)
PvP Analysis
Recommended moves
- Great League:
Waterfall
Crunch
Poison Fang - Ultra League:
Waterfall
Crunch
Poison Fang
Shadow Sharpedo can threaten targets with its Fast Moves when shields are up. This definitely chips down many Pokémon, even if the damage is not super-effective.
However, even in shielded scenarios Shadow Sharpedo can't even tank hard-hitting Fast Moves. It melts to Charm and Counter, even when nerfed.
Against Psychic types, Shadow Sharpedo appears formidable but if you're looking to grab numerous GBL wins, Shadow Sharpedo isn't reliable at all.
While you can run Shadow Sharpedo as spice in the Great and Ultra League, and even find some wins, it falters hard in the Master League.
💎 The best PvP moves for Shadow Sharpedo are Waterfall, Crunch and Poison Fang.
