Overall, Twitch sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Shen. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Shen helps Twitch perform not as well in ranked League matches. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.
When Twitch is paired with Shen, he observes a marginal improvement in his full damage dealt. This difference could demonstrate that Shen helps provide protection for him to deal more damage or that his presence on the team also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Twitch is played alongside Shen on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays without Shen. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Shen.
Moreover, when Twitch plays with Shen on the same team, he typically receives a little less damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could mean that Shen does a decent job of protecting Twitch in team fights.

Is Twitch better when played alongside Shen?
There is no universally accepted best companion for Twitch that will always be his best teammate. Yet, overall, Shen is a very typical ally for Twitch. By being on the same side as Twitch, he raises their win rate by 0.9% to 50.9%. This proves that there is not really a strong strategic relationship between Twitch and Shen that allows them to perform stronger together than alone.
Shen has a lower difficulty than Twitch. That means you don't need to be very careful when finding Shen teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.
When playing alongside, you will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to dish out massive AD. Together, these champions can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.
Conversely, by bringing Twitch and Shen together, you probably will not be granting your team enough AP. Plan to pick other champs on your team that helps cover this hole in their abilities.
Regardless of your Shen ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
