Strategy Overview

Shuppet is a very mediocre Pokemon; it's outclassed by almost every other Ghost-type in the tier, though it's usable if you're looking for something different. Shuppet has usable attacking stats, most notably its base 75 Attack, which is higher than most other Ghost-types in Little Cup. On the defensive side, Shuppet is very frail, and being a Ghost-type, it's weak to common priority moves, such as Sucker Punch and Shadow Sneak. Luckily, Shuppet is immune to Normal- and Fighting-type moves, which allows for an easier switch in. Its movepool is very shallow, though access to Trick Room, Taunt, and Destiny Bond are more than enough to warrant a set. If you're looking for a great Ghost-type in Little Cup however, stick to a more reliable Pokemon, such as Gastly and Duskull.
