Against Fox in particular, Pillaring is very effective. An example of how it would be used: Shine the Fox, Wavedash out of it quickly, then short-hop ADA the Fox, and repeat.
SHFFLing attacks against a shield leading into a pillar can put pressure on an opponent, and force them to make a mistake.

Guide to Pillaring

How to Pillar

Against an opponent's shield, switch off between a Down-Air, L-cancelled into a shine, and then repeat by SHFFLing another Down Air. This can be mixed up with multishines and waveshines.

Pillaring's Uses

Pillaring is used a lot in high-level play, and for a good reason. Pillaring can pressure an opponent in a shield, forcing them to roll out of it, which can be chased. It is possible to be shield-grabbed, but it requires very good timing.

Technicalites

Pillaring can be shield grabbed or broken out of by Samus' Up-B, Bowser's Up-B, Fox doing either shine or Neutral air, and a few other moves.

Strategies

SHFFLing attacks against a shield leading into a pillar can put pressure on an opponent, and force them to make a mistake.
