You definitely want a nice Dark-type to take on Shade, if you're having trouble with him. There are entirely too many to list that help out against him, though...
Lessee, you can play alley tag with Zorua, and Zoroark is fast and gets Night Daze from the move relearner, you can get Houndour/Carvanha depending on whether you joined the Aqua or Magma Gang (you can get both, actually, but you have to complete that whole little plot for even one of them), I found Skuntank useful on my first battle with him, but mine didn't have Night Slash and learns it too late to be of much use there (unless you don't mind grinding), and...
...And Delphox gets Shadow Ball from the move relearner, doesn't it? Have you tried that? If it's not obeying you, you can buy Common Candies in Obsidia Ward to drop its level back down so it'll listen to you again.
For Chandelure specifically, besides Dark-types, a good Water-type pretty much destroys that, you've just gotta watch out for Energy Ball. May I recommend either Azumarill or Gyarados?
