Kings Shield

Steel

Summary

King's Shield is a Status-type move with no power or accuracy rating because it does not deal direct damage. It is a signature move of Aegislash, a Steel/Ghost-type Pokémon. When used, it protects the user from all effects of moves that target it during that turn. If an opponent makes contact with the user while King's Shield is active, the attacker's Attack stat is lowered by two stages. This move is often utilized strategically in battles to safeguard against incoming attacks, while also potentially weakening physical attackers. King's Shield is notably used to play mind games with opponents, as it can disrupt their strategies and turn the tide of battle.
