* During her {{pkmn|battle}} against [[Conway]] in ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]'', {{an|Dawn}} commanded the {{p|Grimer}} she {{pkmn2|rental|borrowed}} from the [[Pokémon Summer Academy]] to use {{m|Poison Gas}} while spinning to surround its body with smoke in order to avoid the opponent's attacks. This was shown to work the same way as the Counter Shield but was used before the tactic was introduced to the series.

* During Ash's [[JN025|battle]] against {{an|Korrina}} during the [[World Coronation Series]], his {{AP|Dragonite}}'s usage of [[Dragon Dance]] against Korrina's [[Mienshao]]'s usage of [[Double Slap]] resulted in a semi-Counter Shield as Mienshao's Double Slap helped Dragonite's accelerate his Dragon Dance.
* During Ash's [[JN025|battle]] against {{an|Korrina}} during the [[World Coronation Series]], his {{AP|Dragonite}} used {{m|Dragon Dance}} in a way to not only boost its attack power and speed, but also deflect the opponent's physical attacks, resulting in a counter reminiscent to Counter Shield. This technique is used again in ''[[JN109|Aim For The Eight!]]'', during Ash's entrance battle against [[Raihan]], and in ''[[JN130|Toying With Your Motions!]]'', during the finals of the [[Masters Eight Tournament]].
** In ''[[JN065|Thrash of the Titans!]]'', Dragonite uses a similar style of counter by using {{m|Hurricane}} around itself to deflect a {{m|Psycho Cut}} and a {{m|Dragon Pulse}} from [[Iris's Haxorus]].
* Of all the characters that have taught their Pokémon to use Counter Shield, {{an|Leon}} is the only one that did not appear in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''.
