Support Necrozma-DW is an excellent special wall thanks to its excellent movepool, solid bulk, and great ability. Knock Off allows Necrozma-DW to cripple would-be switch-ins like Chien-Pao, Terapagos, and Mandibuzz. Stealth Rock is typically slotted in last, but if a teammate can already set Stealth Rock, Earth Power can be used to hit Magearna, Toxapex, and Arceus-Poison hard, or Photon Geyser can be used as a strong STAB move. Tera Fairy grants a resistance to Dark-type attacks from Pokemon like Chi-Yu, Chien-Pao, and Arceus-Dark, and more minorly, grants an immunity to Dragon Tail from the likes of Giratina, Dialga, and defensive Arceus formes. Necrozma-DW is incredibly scared of Dark-type attackers like Chien-Pao, Chi-Yu, and Arceus-Dark and Ghost-type attackers like opposing Necrozma-DW, Spectrier, and Dragapult, so teammates that handle these Pokemon like Magearna, Toxapex, and Zacian for the former and Chien-Pao and Arceus-Dark for the latter are strong choices. Necrozma-DW is a great special wall that is able to wall threats like Palkia-O, Landorus, and Regieleki, so Pokemon that appreciate these threats dispatched like Magearna, Toxapex, and Landorus-T can form solid defensive cores with it.
