Crafty Shield even protects from status moves that can bypass Protect, Detect, and Spiky Shield (such as {{m|Sketch}} and {{m|Play Nice}}). The only status moves that target a Pokémon other than the user it cannot protect from are [[entry hazard]] moves and {{m|Perish Song}}, {{m|Rototiller}}, and {{m|Flower Shield}}. Because it cannot protect against moves that target their user, it will only protect a Pokémon from {{m|Acupressure}} if it targets a Pokémon other than the user.
