Fizz's Q does not hit Shen with his W active? (GAMEPLAY)

So I played Fizz in ARAM and Shen was on the opposing team, I'm not sure exactly why Fizz's Q wouldn't hit Shen while Shen's W was active (Shen was inside the AOE of Shen's W) but, I believe it's because Fizz's Q is considered a basic attack while Fizz's W is active... Is it supposed to be like this? To my understanding, Fizz's Q will proc Fizz's W upon landing but Fizz's W shouldn't turn Fizz's Q into a basic attack, it should only proc the extra damage... Thoughts?

Fizz's Q applies on-hit effects, maybe is because that.

That's what i'm thinking too. I just want someone to take a look and tell me flat out if dashes apply to Shen with his W active. I play both Shen and various champs with dash abilities so it would benefit me to understand this aspect of the game better.

Fizz's Q is really just a basic attack coupled with a targeted dash that applies on hit effects, one of the on hit effects being the damage of the ability itself. So it would make sense that Shen's W would block it.

Yeah, I understand that but it's still technically an ability isn't it? I mean, that would have to apply to EVERYONE who has a dash.. Riven, Ekko, Jarvan IV, Rengar, etc.. Pretty sure their abilities hit Shen with his shield up... Idk i'll try it out. Either way, it should still apply the abilities magic damage... This is from the LOL site.

Fizz strikes his target and runs them through, dealing magic damage and applying on hit effects. Fizz dashes through his target, dealing normal attack damage plus 10/25/40/55/70 (+35% Ability Power) magic damage. This spell applies on-hit effects.
