Unleashing the energy of Mega Evolution has dramatically improved Mega Greninja’s reflexes. It intentionally reveals itself to push opponents into attacking. Then, it detects their incoming attacks and moves so swiftly that it’s able to strike first. Normally, Greninja would appear in a flash and disappear like a ninja. Now that it has Mega Evolved, it no longer bothers to hide itself, demonstrating to opponents its confidence that it will win.

It clings upside down to a giant floating water shuriken that was created from a gel-like membrane secreted from its body. Opponents caught off guard by its surprising appearance are then wrapped up in its long tongue and prevented from attacking. It charges toward immobilised opponents to attack from its gigantic and rapidly spinning shuriken.
