About its forms: Forms have different stats. If Aegislash’s ability is Stance Change, it changes to Blade Forme before using a damaging move, and reverts to Shield Forme before using King’s Shield or upon leaving the field.
Its potent spectral powers allow it to manipulate others. It once used its powers to force people and Pokémon to build a kingdom to its liking.
ShieldIn this defensive stance, Aegislash uses its steel body and a force field of spectral power to reduce the damage of any attack.
SwordApparently, it can detect the innate qualities of leadership. According to legend, whoever it recognizes is destined to become king.
Y · Alpha SapphireGenerations of kings were attended by these Pokémon, which used their spectral power to manipulate and control people and Pokémon.
X · Omega Ruby
