Celebi @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Nasty Plot
- Psychic
- Pollen Puff
- Recover

Celebi flies through time and lands in the battlefield of RU as a potent wallbreaker, utilizing its great coverage and reliable recovery to take over the midgame. It can set up on a lot of the metagame's defensive staples like Gastrodon and Steelix. Psychic allows it to hit Crobat and Roserade as well as Flying-types such as Togekiss and Noivern. Pollen Puff helps beat opposing Celebi, Reuniclus, and Obstagoon and breaks past Umbreon. As this set struggles versus Steel-types, teammates that can break past them are important. Darmanitan can threaten any Steel-type while also pivoting out of bulky Water-types like Milotic and Suicune, both of which Celebi can deal with. Steelix and Flygon also deal with the aforementioned Steel-types while also appreciating Celebi's Water resistance. Seeing how susceptible to Flying-types Celebi is, Stakataka and Diancie can help deal with the likes of Crobat, Noivern, and Talonflame.

As this set struggles versus Steel-types, teammates that can break past them are important. Mienshao can threaten any Steel-type while also pivoting out of Psychic-types like Gardevoir Reuniclus and Necrozma, both of which Celebi can deal with.
Specs Gardevoir 2HKOes Celebi and Scarf can cripple it with Trick. The whole Mienshao mention might have to be replaced, as it could be banned before August 10th. You could go with something like Flygon > Mienshao, or like Darm > Shao ig, and then bulky Water-types > Psychic-types.
Steelix and Flygon also deal with the aforementioned Steels and resist U-turn, while also appreciating Celebi's Water resistance.
The sentence makes it sound like Flygon also resists U-turn when it's only Steelix.

QC 1/1

Celebi flies through time and lands in the battlefield of RU as a potent wallbreaker, utilizing its amazing coverage options great coverage (a bit nitpicky but ur set has one coverage option and its bug type. seems more like psychic+bug has good combined coverage, which aligns with what i put. if psychic+bug actually is "amazing" in the tier, feel free to keep "amazing", but just remember to describe this specific set and not celebi's entire pool of options) and access to reliable recovery to take over the midgame. It can take advantage of a lot of defensive staples of the metagame like Gastrodon and Steelix to get setup opportunities. set up on a lot of the metagame's defensive staples like Gastrodon and Steelix. Psychic allows it to hit Crobat and Roserade as well as Flying-types such as Togekiss and Noivern. Pollen Puff helps beat opposing Celebi, Reuniclus, and Obstagoon and breaks past Umbreon.
