Marshadow

() is a /-type Mythical Pokémon introduced in Generation VII. 
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Marshadow resembles a shadow and has a wispy figure. It is predominantly black and seems to be wearing some sort of helmet. The helmet has two horn/ear-like appendages with a wispy smoke in the center. Its eyes are orange-red with an oval on top. Its arms possess a bump on each wrist. Marshadow appears to wearing a collar and its legs have a shadowy trail. It has a tiny mouth.
As Zenith Marshadow, its headgear, bumps and collar flare up with green yellow flames, and its eyes also flare up.
===Behavior===
Since it hides in the shadows of others, it's very shy and secretive. Using its shadow abilities, it becomes the shadows of others and imitates them, eventually becoming even stronger than the person it is imitating.
===Natural abilities===
Marshadow likes to stay hidden from people, making it unknown to humans and leading most people thinking that it is a myth. Like Gengar, it can hide in shadows. It can turn into its alternate form, Zenith Marshadow, when attacking or enraged.

===Etymology===
Marshadow's name is a portmanteau of "Mars" (the Roman god of war and the fourth planet in the solar system, tying in with its Fighting type and Alola's space theme), "martial arts", "march", Nightmarchers and "shadow".
