Pokemon Sun And Moon Pokemon, Ranked

31 – Marshadow

Type: Fighting/Ghost

Classification: Gloomdweller Pokemon

Pokedex: Able to conceal itself in shadows, it never appears before humans, so its very existence was the stuff of myth. It lurks in the shadows of others, copying their movements and powers. This Pokémon is craven and cowering.

Explanation: Unless you’ve been following Pokemon Sun and Moon very closely, you may not have heard of Marshadow, and you may not again for a long time. This little guy is currently unobtainable and unmentioned anywhere in the games; his existence is only known due to datamining the Pokedex. There isn’t even any official art of the guy yet! Marshadow is most likely similar to Magearna in that it will be an event-only legendary, perhaps even with a future movie about it.

I ranked Marshadow rather low because we know so little about it, but I can’t help but be intrigued by this strange shadow. Its ability, Technician, boosts the power of weak moves, meaning you have the potential to transform a weak move with a useful effect into a powerful move with the same effect. Its Fighting/Ghost typing is incredibly interesting, too. Will it viable in battle? Who knows, but we’ll all chase it anyway whenever the event happens.
