I assume you mean in natdex formats.
Yep (filler)
Shedinja.
No, Shedinja was just banned to Ubers when Terastal Clause didn't exist.
And now it’s only banned in Ubers because there is no terastal clause in only Natdex Ubers and AG.
Reason: old formats, unpredictability, and power creep control( looks at dracovish and shedninja).
