-not too weak
-sd lets the ninja bug thats not accelgor kill tings
-x scissor is strongest move
-shadow sneak is stab and reliable
-sucker punch is stronger and works mediocre well with prediction
-wow spreads burn to support team
-return hits flying / normal types and provides more coverage
[ADDITIONAL COMMENTS]

-lonely makes him strongest
-no reason at all to invest heavily in hp or def or spD
-the 4 in SpD makes the odd Download poke get the boost in atk
-only download poke is porygon, who is pretty much never seen
-same thing with lonely
-needs teammates to take status, like wow and toxic

[SET COMMENTS]
-tricky to play against
-trick cuz most people switch to a wall to absorb any hit and status back
-x scissor is strongest move
-the other two for priority
-protect so you can see if the opponent plans on you switching so they lock themselves into a move that doesn't affect Shedinja (assuming Tricked)
[ADDITIONAL COMMENTS]
-band makes him strong
-lonely lowers def so download gets atk boost
-only download poke is porygon, who is pretty much never seen
-hasty outspeeds nothing noteworthy
-raise atk or spe, whichever you prefer
-invested in the two things worth investing in
-still needs spinners
-all the more needs team support for weak types and status
-poisons / steels and fires for status
-poisons absorb t-spikes
-steels have most synergy
-weak to rock, fire, dark, flying, ghost
-steels got all but fire
-if only there was a heatran in this tier...
-fires have little synergy
[Other Options]
-if you use a life orb, you're a moron
-confuse ray to troll
-gets agility, iirc
-baton pass, but illegal with sd or other cool moves
-shadow claw, but outclassed by shadow sneak and x scissor
-LOL FINAL GAMBIT LOL
-aerial ace and dig are dumb
[Checks and Counters]
-hazards
-status
-leech seed
-pursuit is best way
-fire, rock, ghost, flying, dark
-even an ember from a level 1 pignite will OHKO
-specifically, cincinno can break sash and ko and is faster and is immune to shadow sneak
-braviary and unfezant and others of the same typing are immune to shadow sneak and resist x scissor and are often faster
