Good god. Just imagine this thing against:

A Shell Smash user running a Focus Sash
A Pokemon with Bulk Up / Swords Dance and Close Combat
Any non-Normal Curse user

It's not even like it NEEDS to steal stats or NEEDS to go through Sub. They just went fucking all-out on this guy after being super cautious with the other 'Mons this Generation :P

And all that power coming from something this cute:

Finally a Ghost-Fighting! It's almost like a dream come true... Everything about this Pokemon is beautiful... It's typing is beautiful, it's stats are beautiful (it's not too frail as other sweepers), it's Ability is beautiful (but might not really be useful considering it has Close Combat and Spectral Thief, unless someone wants to use Shadow Punch lol)... This Pokemon basically has perfect coverage just with its STABs alone.


Also anyone knows if this Pokemon can be caught in-game?

It does get perfect coverage with just STAB's alone :) Shedinja screw the wannabe Mega Lopunny

It's like GameFreak was so nervous with some 'Mons. Like not giving Kommo-O Close Combat or Crabrominable any speed, or the Tapu's Play Rough, or Bewear Close Combat because they afraid of having OP stuff this Gen. Then, by the end of the Dex, the designers were way too tired of having to constantly keep things in careful consideration, so they just stopped giving a fuck when they made this lol. Best offensive typing by a landslide, optimal Stat spread, technician priority, a signature move that just gives you way more than it should (and for no real reason), and then just toss on the elemental punches for some 4x SE moves because why the hell not.

I almost forgot it gets Shadow Sneak holy shit wtf is this Pokemon...

Also, the only time Marshadow's not going to have perfect coverage is when GF reveals a Ghost-Nor...

**Covers Mouth**

It'll probably get Knock Off via Move Tutor or something stupid by that point, don't worry <3

Sweet hell, I love this little marshmallow thing! Ghost/Fighting STAB is something I've dreamed of for so long!

Definitely my favourite new Pokemon in gen 7. This thing looks like the new Mega Scizor, except with a free item slot, perfect neutral STAB coverage, better speed, a great signature move, and which doesn't use up your mega slot, only at the cost of slightly less attack and physical defense. If it got swords dance instead of having to resort to bulk up, I could see this thing in ubers.
