Shadow Sneak is a Ghost-type move with 40 power and 100% accuracy. It is a priority move, allowing the user to strike first regardless of the opponent's speed, which makes it especially useful for slower Pokémon needing to get an early hit. Shadow Sneak's priority is +1, meaning it will go before most other attacks that don't have increased priority. This move is commonly used for its tactical advantage in competitive play, allowing players to pick off weakened opponents before they can react. Although its base power is relatively low, its guaranteed first strike can turn the tide in critical moments.
