Shadow Pokémon have a 20% boost to their attack stats, so they are generally very useful as raid attackers. The problem is that, you had to unlock a second charge move to have one worthwhile charge move. With the additional cost to unlock a second move on shadow Pokémon, it was really expensive to be able to use them.
With the 3 hour event this past Sunday, you were able to TM the “frustration” charge move away, saving a lot of stardust, especially for legendaries, where the 100 candies and 120,000 stardust to unlock second move is crazy high.
If you look at top raid attacker lists for any of the bosses, shadow Pokémon are at the top of every one, usually by a significant margin.
