Shadow Unfezant
PvE Analysis
Among the top Flying Type attackers, Shadow Unfezant falls a bit short. However, it still beats out every non Shadow/Mega Flying Type attacker, meaning it's an overall great member of the Flying Type crew. If you need Flying coverage, then this regional-bird-turned-shadow actually has very impressive performance that makes it worth raising.
Best PvE Offensive Moveset
Air Slash + Sky Attack | Best |
---|
- Air Slash should be paired with Sky Attack to make a Flying Type moveset.
- Hyper Beam gets STAB, but that's literally the only good thing that can be said about it.
- Steel Wing and Heat Wave have no value to Shadow Unfezant.
Best PvE Defensive Moveset
Steel Wing + Sky Attack | Best |
---|
- Steel Wing is the Quick Move of choice, out-damaging Air Slash.
- Sky Attack is Shadow Unfezant's only multi-bar move, and it's a good move at that.
- Heat Wave can hit some counters hard, but it's unlikely to actually be used.
- Hyper Beam is hands-down the worst move for Shadow Unfezant on defense.
PvP Analysis
Air Slash+Sky Attack and Heat Wave |
Air Slash has a balanced energy/damage profile, making it the move of choice. Sky Attack is its charged move of choice, sporting low energy cost, high power, and a STAB boost. Heat Wave is expensive and not very powerful, but it's Unfezant's best option for hitting some of its counters.
Great League | 1 / 5 | |
---|---|---|
Unfezant is little more than a vastly inferior Noctowl in the Great League, which itself is largely thought of as an inferior Skarmory. Skip Unfezant, as it doesn't have much to offer beyond Sky Attack. | ||
