What is a counter for Electric Tera Shedinja with Air Balloon?

Question

I don't know how to stop it. Eight Gen 9 Nat Dex games and all of them had said Shedinja. Please help me.

Edit: Also if Cyclizar Shed Tails and giving Shedinja a substitute, which is immune to toxic

Comments

There are lots of counters, such as sandstorm, toxic, hail, Rocky helmet, just any type of indirect damage.

hail was removed

Answer 1

Firstly, there is indirect damage. This includes the entry hazard;
- Stealth Rock
- Sandstorm
- Status conditions, such as poison, burn and confusion
- Items such as the Rocky helmet and
- Leech seed

In terms of abilities;
- Mold Breaker makes Shedinja’s ability useless
- Mycelium Might
- Teravolt
- Turboblaze
- Aftermath
- Rough Skin
- Liquid ooze
- And a few more

There are also some moves that can damage it, being;
- Struggle
- Sunsteel Strike
- Moongeist Beam
- Photon Geyser
- Thousand Arrows
- And the recoil from Shedinja using struggle

In summary
There are still a lot of things that can beat Shedinja, mainly things like stealth rock and status conditions.

Hope I helped!

I feel like Tera elec shedinja is overhyped.

Amen to that

---

In doubles it would be better

---

Also, Shedninja is unobtainable in Scarlet and Violet

---

It's Nat Dex as the asker said

---

Smogon managed to beat Shedinja by banning it from NatDex.

---

Moves like Sunsteel Strike ignore abilities.

Must've missed that when I wrote the answer, thanks

The original question asked for Nat Dex is which likely didn't have those moves, but I thought they were worth a mention since shedinja is banned to AG now.
