Effects

Upon attacking a Pokémon with Shadow Tag, the attacker is given the Immobilized status, preventing them from moving for 5 turns.

Throwing items do not activate Shadow Tag.

Strategy

Using Shadow Tag
  • After being attacked by a Pokémon, you can easily move away while they're immobilized without being followed.
Fighting Shadow Tag
  • If you do not have a Pokémon immune to it, it is difficult to attack the Shadow Tag user without being immobilized; make sure you do not attack them while in a perilous position.
  • The Run Away ability prevents being Immobilized.
  • Throwing items, such as sticks, will allow you to damage the Shadow Tag user without activating their ability.
  • In a pinch, a Lum Berry can cure the Immobilization status.
