'''Shadow moves''' (Japanese: '''ダークわざ''' ''Dark moves'') are [[move]]s known only by [[Shadow Pokémon]] in [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]. They have no [[type]] and are noted in the games with ------ in the type bar. | '''Shadow moves''' (Japanese: '''ダークわざ''' ''Dark moves'') are [[move]]s known only by [[Shadow Pokémon]] in [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]].

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}}, as 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.
