It evolves from Nincada at level 20, and uniquely, if a player has an empty slot in their party and a Poké Ball, a Shedinja will appear in the party simultaneously. This dual evolution is a fascinating aspect of its lore, reflecting its ability to shed its skin and leave behind an empty shell. Ninjask is known for its incredible speed, often described as being too fast to see, and its buzzing wings create a high-pitched drone. Its diet primarily consists of tree sap, which it extracts with its sharp mouthparts. In the games, it is prized for its high Speed stat and the ability "Speed Boost," making it a formidable offensive presence. In the anime, it has appeared frequently, often showcasing its blinding swiftness in battles. Its distinctive appearance, with a sleek, aerodynamic body and large, red eyes, makes it a memorable Pokémon from the Hoenn region, embodying themes of swiftness and stealth.
