Shadow Tag can be countered with (risky) pre-preemptive switching, Shed Shell, U-turn, etc. Shadow Tag is very powerful, but it can be beaten; and that's the issue. Countering it requires very specific things... it's not only immaculately strong, and has no opportunity cost, but can be metagame-centralizing. Long, long ago, it wasn't uncommon for Ubers Pokemon to hold a Shed Shell specifically for ignorin' Wobbuffet.
I ain't got a clue 'bout how MegaGar might pose a ginormous threat to the Ubers metagame's balance, but it ain't Farfetch'd that there's talk about megabannin' MegaGar. ShadowTag on a potent Ghost-type in a Psychic-type heavy metagame 'n all. Scary revenge killer is scary.

You have to be some hell of a gamer to beat luck. Luck destroys all. Luck owns. Luck shall be the end of me.
after years of my putting it off, I finally got around to painting my Stunfisk clay model. <3
I decided to go with the shiny color variation, as you can see.
I made this model back in high school ceramics class (well it technically wasn't just ceramics but who cares), it was some time ago, I believe back in 2011. I'm fairly proud of how it came out back then, and I'm fairly proud of how I did with the paint job.
Compare the shinyfisk model to some glorious pictures of my favorite actual shinyfisk, Chunafisk:
