Lowers defenses, raises offenses.
Shell Smash is a Normal-type status move that sharply raises the user's Attack, Special Attack, and Speed stats by two stages, but lowers its Defense and Special Defense stats by one stage. In Polished Crystal, Shell Smash can be learned by various Pokémon, providing them with a powerful setup option to boost their offensive capabilities at the cost of some defensive resilience in battle.
