Pokémon UNITE

In Pokémon UNITE, Shadow Claw is Aegislash's first move. It is obtained by evolving into Doublade at level 5 and upgrading Shadow Sneak into it instead of Sacred Sword. The user slashes with its blade twice in the designated direction, dealing damage to enemies hit. Follow up with a final rising slash that deals damage to enemies hit and throw them. Boost count increases by 1 when at least one of the three slashes hits. At level 11, the move increases the user's critical hit rate by 20% for a short time.
