Read more ↓Shiftry, the Wicked Pokémon, is a Grass/Dark-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III. It is the final evolution of Seedot, evolving from Nuzleaf. Known for its distinct appearance, resembling a tengu, a type of Japanese mythological creature, Shiftry is often depicted as a mysterious and sometimes malevolent guardian of the forest. Its large, leaf-like fans on its arms and head are not just for show; they are used to create powerful gusts of wind. In the games, Shiftry is often found in dense forests, embodying its role as a forest protector or, conversely, a mischievous trickster. Its dual typing gives it unique advantages and disadvantages in battle, being strong against Water, Ground, Rock, Psychic, and Ghost types, but vulnerable to Fire, Ice, Fighting, Flying, Poison, and Fairy types. In the anime, Shiftry often appears as a formidable opponent, showcasing its cunning and powerful attacks. Its Pokédex entries frequently highlight its ability to read minds and its swift, preemptive actions, making it a formidable presence in its natural habitat and a challenging foe for trainers.
