Many of the Shadow moves are dark, corrupted counterparts of a [[move]] that the Shadow Pokémon would normally learn, such as [[Shadow Lugia]]'s {{m|Shadow Blast}}, which, like the move {{m|Aeroblast}}, sends a high-powered stream of air at the foe, and can only be learned by Lugia. These moves often have lower [[power]] than their non-shadow counterparts, but still inflict more damage due to being super effective. Their usefulness is also increased by their lack of {{PP}}, they can be used as often as needed within a single Battle. | Many of the Shadow moves are dark, corrupted counterparts of a [[move]] that the Shadow Pokémon would normally learn, such as [[Shadow Lugia]]'s {{m|Shadow Blast}}, which, like the move {{m|Aeroblast}}, sends a high-powered stream of air at the foe, and can only be learned by Lugia.

Although only available in Generation III, damage-dealing Shadow moves can be either [[Physical moves|Physical]] or [[Special moves|Special]] | Although only available in Generation III, damage-dealing Shadow moves can be either [[Physical moves|Physical]] or [[Special moves|Special]]. This distinction appears to be based on the types of the moves they are most similar to. For example, {{m|Shadow Blast}} is a Physical move because {{m|Aeroblast|its counterpart}} is a {{t|Flying|Flying-type}} move, which are all Physical in [[Generation III|this generation]]. Other moves would not be changed until [[Generation IV|the following generation]]. | ||
