Shedinja's improvement was huge. Its attack has increased from F to D. 3 of its stats had increased except for health. Among the group, Shedinja was the one who trained very seriously. Axel had to stop it to rest for some time. But what he realized was, the stats of Shedinja and Charmander were different. Shedinja and Charmander both had Attack ranked D. But Shedinja's attack was much higher than Charmander.

'Hmm.. is it because Shedinja is an evolved Pokemon?' thought Axel.

It has been more than a week since he came to Venu family. His Weedle had evolved, he had trained his body stats and had improved his Pokemon's base stats too. And now, he had already decided on the training plan for each of his Pokemon.

First, training plan for Shedinja

Shedinja may now be the boss of the team but after researching it he found something. Shedinja was a high-maintenance Pokemon. It had a lot of disadvantages. Sure, its wonder guard ability is arguably the most powerful ability to exist but it also had very little Hp.

The first problem with Shedinja was indirect moves. Moves like 'hail' or 'stand storm' affects it. And since it had a very low Hp, it was possible that the move could defeat it. When a Pokemon ranks up to 'King' tier, it could subconsciously change its surrounding to its advantage. Axel saw that with Adam's Tyranitar. So, if Axel fought with king ranked, ground-type Pokemon, 'stand storm' would be a common occurrence.

The second problem was its Potential. Yes, potential. Since Shedinja needed a lot of defense, agility and protective type moves to fight, its low potential hinders its moves mastery. The potential of a Pokemon could be increased, but there was a very low chance. Shedinja did increase its potential once, but it would be very unlikely to happen another time.

There are 2 ways a Pokemon could increase its Potential. They are, resources, comprehension and evolution. If a Pokemon had not fully evolved, and there is a good resource available like 'miracle seed' for grass type, during the evolution if it consumes the resources, there is a certain chance it could increase its potential. But to have that, the Pokemon must have good comprehension. However, the chances of having good comprehension were very low. A normal Pokemon could not even think like a human until it fully evolves.

The other way for a Pokemon to increase its potential was to have a high comprehension ability. That was what Shedinja did. It was due to Shedinja's nature. Since it was a weak Pokemon, it always thinks before it acts.

And the last problem was Shedinja itself. It was in its final evolution and an uncommon ranked Pokemon. If Axel had caught it when it was a Nincada, then there would be a lot of things that Axel could to do improve its potential and abilities. But that was not the case now.

But Shedinja had some good points too. At least his Marcus. Marcus was different than normal Shedinja. It could move part of its body. Adam also had pointed this out. Cause normal Shedinja could not do it. It could not even blink its eye. It just floats. When Nincada evolves, on some rare occasion, it separates into 2 different Pokemons: Ninjask and Shedinja. But as per Bruno, Ninjask died immediately and only Marcus lived.

Shedinja is a hollow Pokemon. When 2 Pokemon Ninjask and Shedinja come into existence, the soul of Nincada separates into 2 and Ninjask gets the better half of the deal. Ninjask gets a body with bones and muscles but Shedinja doesn't have any of those. It becomes completely hollow. Shedinja also had an incomplete soul but Ninjask gets all the soul power. But in case of Marcus, it seems that it got all the soul of Ninjask. That was why Marcus could move part of its body. It could blink its eye, cry some tears and even smile sometimes.

He didn't know what advantage it had, compare to normal Shedinja but he had a feeling that this could be a turning point for Marcus. But he knew something. Marcus was a variant and a good variant if Bruno was right about his story. Variants are those Pokemon who are different than their normal counterpart. It was different from shiny. It could be a good variant having an advantage over its normal counterpart or a bad variant who are weaker than its normal counterpart.

Leaving all that aside, Axel first listed out all of Shedinja's good moves. They were:

X-scissor, Shadow sneak, shadow claw, shadow ball, will o wisp, toxic, protect, heal block, baton pass, sword dance, Giga impact, secret power, ally switch and final gambit.

He had thought hard for a week and had decided that Shedinja would be an assassin type Pokemon. It would have high agility and attack. It would also train it in moves like 'protect' to be on the safe side. He asked Shedinja about this plan and readily agreed.

Axel thought hard about all its future moves but he didn't come to a full conclusion. But he decided to not think about some of these moves. 'Shadow claw' cause it a physical type move and Shedinja should be in close proximity to use it. 'Toxic', 'heal block', 'baton pass', and 'secret power' would also be ticked off. He just could not picture Shedinja with those moves. And 'Final gambit' was a no-go too.

The move 'final gambit' was different from the anime and games. This moves drastically decreases the user's Hp and the target would feel the same pain that the user felt. That means if the user became seriously injured, the target would too be in that state. But the pickle was Shedinja would absolutely die when it uses 'final gambit' cause of its low Hp. It may be able to kill a Champion-ranked Pokemon too if it used the move but Shedinja too would die. So Axel canceled this move out of his mind.
