Ninjask (Japanese: テッカニン Tekkanin) is a dual-type Bug- and Flying-Type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

It evolves from Nincada starting at level 20. This evolution can trigger the creation of a second Pokémon, Shedinja, if the player has an empty slot in their party and an extra Poké Ball on hand.

Because it darts about vigorously at high speed, it is very difficult to see. Hearing its distinctive cries for too long induces a headache.
