Ursaluna-B uses its great Special Attack and physical bulk to be a decent Calm Mind sweeper. Calm Mind lets it boost past and break through foes like Corviknight and RegenVest Manaphy and Swampert, while Moonlight provides additional longevity, letting it use the aforementioned walls as setup fodder. Storm Drain turns RegenVest users like Swampert, Manaphy, and Primarina into setup fodder and lets it check Barraskewda; alternatively, Well-Baked Body lets Ursaluna-B counter Fire-types like Ceruledge lacking Close Combat, Iron Moth, and Heatran, letting it safely set up on them, while Fluffy lets it deal with physical attackers, using Dragonite as setup fodder and checking Fighting-types like Iron Hands and Great Tusk. 252 Special Attack EVs and a Modest nature lets Ursaluna-B OHKO Dragonite at +1 and defensive Great Tusk, while 252 Defense EVs and a Bold nature help Ursaluna-B better check physical attackers like Roaring Moon and Iron Boulder. 15 Speed IVs let Ursaluna-B underspeed Corviknight, preventing it from safely using Roost or U-turn to slow pivot to a teammate that can handle Ursaluna-B. Powerful special attackers like Azelf and Latios appreciate Ursaluna-B's ability to handle threats like Roaring Moon and pressure checks like Swampert for them; in return, they can threaten Fighting-types like Zamazenta and Great Tusk that could threaten it. Ursaluna-B's low Speed leaves it susceptible to threats that can OHKO it like Chien-Pao and Walking Wake, so teammates that can deal with them like RegenVest Primarina are appreciated. Ursaluna-B's low Special Defense also lets powerful attackers like Latios and Deoxys-S OHKO it prior to setting up, so specially defensive teammates that can check them like Empoleon and Heatran are good pairings. Earth Eater users like Gholdengo and Empoleon can wall Ursaluna-B, so teammates that can threaten them like Roaring Moon and Scrappy Great Tusk are appreciated.
