Crafty Shield (Japanese: トリックガード Trick Guard) is a non-damaging Fairy-type move introduced in Generation VI. Prior to Generation VII, it was one of the signature moves of Klefki.

Effect

Crafty Shield protects all Pokémon on the user's side of the field from status moves. It does not protect against damaging moves or moves that target their user. Crafty Shield can be used consecutively without failing.

Crafty Shield even protects from status moves that can bypass Protect, Detect, and Spiky Shield (such as Sketch and Play Nice). The only status moves it cannot protect from are Perish Song and entry hazard moves.

Feint, Hyperspace Fury, Hyperspace Hole, Shadow Force, and Phantom Force lift the effect of Crafty Shield from the target's team.

If powered up by a Fairium Z into Z-Crafty Shield, the user's Special Defense stat raises one stage.
