There is one flaw in your logic: While shuckle has a decent support movepool, many pokemon can use knock off, though tangrowth is the best...and encore...meh, choice items usually make it rather useless, though it is a good move. Here is the flaw in your logic I forgot to mention...shuckle can take any hit, but how can it attack? You're right, trick room+power trick is extremely risky, but what else can it do? Its attack stats are dirt, DIRT! and the only way of inflicting damage is toxic...and a few othresd not worth mentioning. Therefore, shuckle can tkae hits, but nothing else, except the trick move thing. If it has the correct matchup, shuckle is a monster, but it doesn't get many with skarmory, aromatherapy bliss, forry, metagross, steelix, gengar, etc. running around. Shuckle has amazing potential, but it ultimately fails, or at least IMO.
