Choice Scarf Meowscarada provides incredible speed control for Dark teams, being able to outspeed and handle threats such as Flutter Mane, Tornadus-T, and Greninja for its teammates. Flower Trick lets Meowscarada deal with the likes of Flutter Mane, Ting-Lu, and Primarina comfortably. Knock Off takes care of Ghost- and Psychic-types like Gholdengo, Spectrier, and Latios along with removing held items like Archaludon's and Corviknight's Leftovers and Toxapex's Heavy-Duty Boots. Triple Axel can handle Flying- and Dragon-types such as Landorus, Dragonite, and Roaring Moon. Alternatively, Play Rough can pressure opposing Dark-types such as Darkrai while also handling Fighting-types such as Iron Valiant and Gallade. Finally, U-turn provides Meowscarada a way to keep up momentum while also handling Hoopa-U.
Ting-Lu provides great defensive support for Meowscarada, helping to deal with special threats like Choice Scarf Flutter Mane, Raging Bolt, and Iron Moth. Ting-Lu also can set up entry hazards, wearing down checks such as Archaludon and Hippowdon along with handling Steel- and Poison-types such as Heatran, Toxapex, and Sneasler with Earthquake. Mandibuzz can safely pivot Meowscarada in with U-turn and check physical attackers such as Excadrill, Scizor, and Choice Scarf Dragapult with Foul Play. Choice Specs Greninja complements Meowscarada, dealing with Fire-types and physical walls like Iron Moth, Moltres, and Skarmory with Surf. It can also use coverage like Extrasensory or Sludge Wave to better handle problems like Toxapex and the Ogerpon formes, respectively. Hisuian Samurott and Bisharp provide Sucker Punch speed control, dealing with targets faster than Meowscarada like Dragon Dance Dragapult and Swift Swim Barraskewda. Hisuian Samurott also applies further pressure against teams with Spikes from Ceaseless Edge, while Sacred Sword deals with Archaludon and Hisuian Goodra. Bisharp can use Iron Head to help pressure Fairy-types like Hatterene and Clefable for Meowscarada. Assault Vest Hoopa-U can come in on special threats like Galarian Weezing and Kyurem for Meowscarada and answer them with options such as Focus Blast and Psychic. Nasty Plot Darkrai can help break checks such as Pecharunt and bulky Gholdengo with Dark Pulse and uses Sludge Bomb to handle Iron Valiant. Sableye can blanket wall Fighting-types like Iron Hands and Sneasler for Meowscarada alongside using Encore to trap targets like Clodsire and Blissey into undesirable recovery options.
