A shield stab is the event of finding a damageable portion of a character slightly outside of their shield and striking it, therefore bypassing their attempt to shield. This is an extremely useful technique, as it can be used to strike an otherwise defended enemy. Also, some characters such as Bowser, Mr. Game and Watch, and Donkey Kong have small shield sizes relative to their body size, and as such are easier to shield stab than smaller characters like Jigglypuff, Kirby, Ness, and Pichu.
It should be noted that Yoshi, due to his unique shield (encasing himself in an egg), cannot be shield stabbed.
