Natural abilities
Ninjask's ability Speed Boost allows it to raise its Speed each turn until it is maxed out. It's said to be so fast, it becomes invisible.
Evolution
Ninjask is one of the two evolved forms of Nincada. Nincada evolves into Ninjask once level 20 is reached. Also, if the player character has a spare space in the team and a spare Poké Ball in the bag, a Shedinja is added.

Trivia
- Ninjask has the second highest Speed stat of all Pokémon, which is 160. This level of attribute is only beaten by Deoxys in its Speed Forme, at 180. Hence, Ninjask is the fastest non-legendary Pokemon. But Ninjask can beat Deoxys in one turn in battle thanks to Speed Boost.
- Raising its Speed, Evasiveness, and Attack then lowering its opponent's accuracy makes Ninjask an unstoppable force unless its Speed Boost ability is replaced with Simple or Mummy during battle.
- It shares the same species name as Greninja, as both are called the Ninja Pokemon
Etymology
Ninjask is named after "Ninja" and "Mask".
