===Generation VI===
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 used due to something like {{status|sleep}}.
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}}.


Using {{m|Protect}}, {{m|Detect}}, {{m|Endure}}, {{m|Spiky Shield}}, King's Shield, {{m|Wide Guard}}, or {{m|Quick Guard}} consecutively divides the chance of success of Protect, Detect, Endure, Spiky Shield, and King's Shield by 3 for each consecutive use, with a minimum (1/3)^6 (1/729 or ~0.1%) chance.<ref>https://twitter.com/0x7bdf/status/591858756733931521</ref>

King's Shield is unable to defend against status moves or any of the following moves:
King's Shield can also be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Contest Spectacular combination]], with the user gaining an extra three appeal points if any of the moves {{m|Encore}}, {{m|Taunt}} or {{m|Torment}} was used in the prior turn.
 
===Generation VII===
King's Shield now causes the Attack stat to drop even if the user of King's Shield was immune to that contact move.
 
If Aegislash attempts to use King's Shield but cannot execute it due to an effect such as a [[status condition]] or {{status|confusion}}, Stance Change does not activate.
 
If powered up by a [[Steelium Z]] into Z-King's Shield, all of the user's lowered stats are reset.
 
===Moves that bypass King's Shield===
In addition to damaging [[Z-Move]]s, King's Shield is unable to defend against [[status move]]s or any of the following moves:
