Would Shedinja be invincible if it held a Focus Band?

1 minute read

If I were to give a Shedinja a focus band, would it be invincible? I know status moves could KO, so they don’t count.

No, it wouldn’t.1.Focus Bands don’t always work.2.If you are talking about a sash, then it only works once.3.Weather, Hazards, and Status Conditions kill it

No, it won’t.

An item to be held by a Pokémon. The holder may endure a potential KO attack, leaving it with just 1 HP.

It does not say that Focus Bandalwayswill make the Pokemon holding it able to endure a move, just that itmightendure it. For Shedinja to be “invincible”, you need to be playing Pure Hackmon or Almost Any Ability format. Sash does not make Shedinja invincible because it disappears after use.

Hope I helped!

The Focus Band (Japanese: きあいのハチマキ Fighting Spirit Headband) is a type of held item introduced in Generation II thatsometimes prevents fainting.

It only prevents faintingsometimes.It only has a 10% chance of working. For a semi-invulnerable Shedinja, you can have it hold a FocusSash,which let’s it survive a single hit.

The only way to get an actually unkillable Shedinja would be one with Sturdy, holding Safety Goggles, and having Safeguard up.
