Shed-Tail Move Detail

Shed-Tail is a unique status move introduced in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. It is a Normal-type move and does not have power or accuracy stats since it does not deal direct damage. Shed-Tail allows the user to create a substitute using half of its current HP, then immediately switch out to another Pokémon in the party. This move combines the effects of Substitute and Baton Pass, making it a highly strategic option for setting up other Pokémon without taking a hit themselves. Shed-Tail is particularly valuable in competitive play for granting safe entry to a teammate and maintaining momentum in battle.
