The recommended upgrades for Shōkaku are as follows:

Hull(B) for better resistance against CV sniping.

Furthermore, the ship lacks a powerful AA defense, so it is best to take advantage of her concealment and remain unspotted for as long as possible. Any vital mistakes that leads to annhiliation of squadrons will leave playes with only 1 or 2 planes per squadron. Concealment of planes, use of islands to block AA are essential to keep up the air attacks till late in the game. This is a serious disadvantage compared to the Lexington or the Implacable as tier 8~10 battles intoduce cruisers and battleships with stong AA. Also it has one of the weakest planes with low health pools. Shokaku is more of a anti-BB, cruiser carrier in its role as it lacks HE bombs of the Americans or the fast rockets of the British. The researchable dive bombers has the same numbers but with faster plane speed and better health. The stock dive bombers has 9 planes with a total of 3 attack runs and 3 planes in a attack run.

This can be useful if the player overshoot the target's momentum, but with less possibility of a citadel hit. The aiming mechanism is different from USN dive bombers as the aiming circle initially dip backward slightly before moving forward at the very last minute. As the AP fuse need time to arm, using against destroyers are quite ineffective. Use islands and target HE saturated ships for finishing or devastating blows. But keep in mind that these planes are very weak and using against the aforementioned targets may not be viable from early on in the match. German battleships, cruisers French battleships Soviet battleships American cruisers are good candidates for citadel hits.

Unlike most carriers, Shokaku uses AP dive bombers. The researchable torpedo bombers has the same numbers but with faster plane speed and better health. The stock torpedo bombers has 10 planes with a total of 5 attack runs and 2 planes in a attack run. The downside is that the planes are one of the weakest of all tier VIII carriers, and players need to utilize the long range of the torpedoes for longer duration of its usage.

With a full concealment build, players could drop their payload almost the instance the planes are spotted. The torpedo range, speed and damage is excellent. When fully upgraded, player can attack 5 times with double torpedoes per time. The researchable attack aircraft has 9 planes with a total of 3 attack runs with 3 planes in a attack run. The stock planes has 8 planes with a total of 4 attack runs and 2 planes in a attack run. They are also dropped in large amounts providing better chances of hitting a target. When attacking a target they have a very tight aiming circle providing good accuracy and is useful for targeting all ship types. The attack aircraft have very good speed that can be used to chase down destroyers more effectively than other nation's attack aircraft.
