I think you guys are underestimating Shikamaru. There are many simple ways to deal with insects and quickly take Shino out. I'm sure Shikamaru, being as intelligent as he is, knows a lot about the Aburame clans skills. He can do whatever he wants with his shadows, he could easily take care of the insects in my opinion.

I see this as being a semi-difficult battle for Shikamaru. Shino's taijutsu would be an issue as well but still. Shikamaru doesn't need to fight him directly.
