Overview:
Marshadow is a very quick pokemon with a great physical attack stadistic. Principal problem are deffenses this pokemon has. But it's OK, cause if it had more defense it would be a Uber Pokemon.
It's very seen principally for two things: Shadow Sneak with Technician (60 power plus stab=90 and it's spectacular Spectral Thief, that can rub out of e game so many pokémon, specially boosters. Hiz special Z move it's simply broken.
Acrobatics, Fire Punch, Poison Jab, Close Combat... A great moveset that can cover almost all the actual metagame.
Immunity to Normal and Fighting types and two great stab's that helps hom fighting to other metagames beast
He has priority move such as Shadow Sneak, 90 power with this pokémon and very useful.
Although all good points it has, Marshadow has to be used intelligently. Is not for noobs. Has some counters that prevents him to be an Uber.
He can be destroyed easily cause of his bad defenses and poor Bulky set.

Spectral Thief it's a unic attack for Marshadow that takes all boosts from the opposite pokemon and hits with a 90 power plus stab=135. Also for Marshadium to work you need this move,
Shadow Sneak finishes a lot of pokémon with priority and using hs ability and his STAB
Close Combat is most powerful attack Marshadow has. Although it reduces his deffenses, you can do a lot of OHKO,
Hidden Power Ice is way better than Ice Punch. Imagine a Landorus Therian or a Garchomp deffensive (Rocky Helmet, 252 Deffense) If you do Ice Punch you receive Rocky Helmet 16%. If you do Hidden Power Ice you don't have that problem.
