King's Shield protects the user from any moves except [[status move]]s for that turn. Additionally, if King's Shield blocks an attack that would make [[contact]] with the user, the attacker's Attack stat drops by 2 stages. If {{m|Sucker Punch}} is used on a Pokémon that has used King's Shield, the move fails and the Pokémon's Attack does not drop.

If selected by an Aegislash with {{a|Stance Change}} while in Blade Forme, it will change to Shield Forme immediately before it would use King's Shield, even if the move fails or is not executed due to an effect such as a [[status condition]] or {{status|confusion}}. Stance Change does not change the user's Forme if King's Shield is {{cat|Moves that call other moves|called by another move}}, such as {{m|Sleep Talk}}.
