Choice Specs Enamorus is a ferocious wallbreaker thanks to its amazing STAB in tandem with a massive Special Attack stat. These attributes are further bolstered by Enamorus's solid Speed tier, outspeeding the likes of Zapdos, Landorus-Therian, and Hydreigon. Earth Power synergizes amazingly well with Moonblast, hitting Steel-types such as Gholdengo, Kingambit, and Heatran. It also targets the likes of Galarian Slowking, Iron Moth, Toxapex and Volcanion. Mystical Fire hits Pokemon like Air Balloon Gholdengo and Corviknight that would otherwise resist Moonblast and be immune to Earth Power while outright OHKOing Scizor. Psychic operates as a middle ground between Earth Power and Mystical Fire against most Poison-types, having a chance to OHKO Amoonguss after Stealth Rock and catching Pokemon like Clodsire and Tera Poison Cresselia off-guard. Tera Fairy boosts Enamous's Moonblast to absolutely horrifying levels, 2HKOing even Pokemon that resist Fairy like Gholdengo, bulky Cinderace, and Scizor. Tera Ground turns Enamorus's weaknesses to Rock and Electric into a resistance and immunity respectively, making it less threatened by Stealth Rock damage and letting it find opportunities to switch in against the likes of Zapdos and Sandy Shocks. It also boosts Earth Power, letting it OHKO Garganacl and Toxapex. Tera Steel bolsters Enamorus's defensive profile, making it less vulnerable to Poison-types like Galarian Slowking, Amoonguss and Toxapex while also preventing it being revenge killed moves like Dragonite's Extreme Speed.

Choice Specs Enamorus is a solid pick on hyper offense and bulky offense teams as a monstrous breaker, tearing apart common bulky Pokemon like Great Tusk, Dondozo, Garganacl, and Ting-Lu. Entry hazard support from the likes of Hisuian Samurott, Ting-Lu, Garganacl, and Heatran help ease prediction for Enamorus, chipping Pokemon like Air Balloon Gholdengo, Amoonguss, and Scizor that could otherwise play around it. Hazard control from the likes of Great Tusk, Hatterene, and Corviknight is essential for giving Enamorus more opportunities to switch in. Sweepers such as Kingambit, Swords Dance Sneasler, Battle Bond Greninja, and Calm Mind Cresselia appreciate Enamorus breaking through Pokemon like Ting-Lu, bulky Gholdengo, Toxapex, and Skeledirge, enabling them to clean in the late-game. Enamorus's ability to break through the likes of Great Tusk, Dondozo, and Garganacl means that physical attackers like Kingambit, Dragonite, Baxcalibur, and Cinderace make for excellent partners, as in return, they can threaten Pokemon like Amoonguss and Scizor. Offensive pivots like Dragapult and Cinderace create offensive momentum for Enamorus to capitalize off of, baiting Dark- and Ground-type moves that Enamorus can safely switch into. Slower pivots like Galarian Slowking and Rotom-W can let Enamorus switch in without taking any damage, further boosting momentum

Choice Specs Enamorus is a ferocious wallbreaker thanks to its amazing STAB in tandem with a massive Special Attack stat. These attributes are further bolstered by Enamorus's solid Speed tier, outspeeding the likes of Zapdos, Sandy Shocks, and Hydreigon. Earth Power synergizes amazingly well with Moonblast, hitting Steel-types such as Gholdengo, Kingambit, and Heatran, and Iron Treads. Treads is a bit too niche to warrant a direct mention, IMO, though it absolutely is an EP target. It also targets the likes of Galarian Slowking, Iron Moth, Toxapex, and Sandy Shocks Volcanion I think Sandy Shocks is still a relevant target since it takes a bit of chip for Moonblast to reliably OHKO it even after Rocks, but even HDB Volcanion (which runs some HP investment) gets OHKOed by EP and avoids the 2HKO from Moonblast. To keep the target list a bit more brief, I think the higher-ranked Volcanion is a better mon to list here. Cinderace may be worth a mention here instead of Shocks or Volcanion too, since the bulky pivot set has a very low chance to get 2HKOed by Moonblast and outspeeds Enamorus and hits it hard with Pyro Ball; I'll let you decide which mon you want to mention. Mystical Fire 2HKOs Pokemon like Air Balloon Gholdengo and Corviknight that would otherwise resist Moonblast and Earth Power while outright OHKOing Scizor. Psychic obliterates Sneasler on the switch might not be the best mention here; Sneasler already gets OHKOed after Rocks by Moonblast and it's a 75% roll without Rocks while also being able to catch Pokemon like Clodsire, Amoonguss It's important to note that these two can still be dealt with by Earth Power and Mystical Fire, respectively; Clodsire takes as much from Psychic as EP and Amoonguss is still 2HKOed by Mystical Fire, so it may be worth specifically focusing on Psychic's use as midground between EP/Mystical Fire against these targets or the Cinderace I mentioned earlier, which gets cleanly 2HKOed. Amoonguss also has a slight chance of being OHKOed by Psychic after Rocks, so that may be worth mentioning. There's a lot of ways to incorporate this, so I'll let you decide how you want to do it., and Tera Poison Cresselia off-guard I think this is the best use case for Psychic outside of being a solid middle ground between EP/Mystical Fire, so definitely keep this. Tera Fairy boosts Enamous's Moonblast to absolutely horrifying levels, 2HKOing even Pokemon that resist Fairy like Gholdengo, Corviknight, and Scizor. Tera Ground turns Enamorus's weaknesses to Rock and Electric into a resistance and immunity respectively, making it less threatened by Stealth Rock damage and letting it find opportunities to switch in against the likes of Zapdos and Sandy Shocks. It also boosts Earth Power, letting it OHKO Garganacl and Toxapex.

Entry hazard support from the likes of Hisuian Samurott, Ting-Lu, Garganacl, and Heatran help ease prediction for Enamorus, chipping Pokemon like Air Balloon Gholdengo, Amoonguss, and Scizor that could otherwise play around it. Hazard support control these are distinctly methods to deny your opponent's entry hazards; you're right in what these mons do, but calling them hazard support, especially right after a sentence referring to hazard setters as hazard support, is a bit confusing from the likes of Great Tusk, Hatterene, and Corviknight is essential for giving Enamorus more opportunities to switch in. Sweepers such as Kingambit, Swords Dance Sneasler, Battle Bond Greninja, good mention of BB Gren here; that's a more recent metagame development and it definitely wouldn't have been included several weeks ago and Calm Mind Cresselia appreciate Enamorus breaking through Pokemon like Ting-Lu, bulky Gholdengo, Toxapex, and Skeledirge, enabling them to clean in the late-game. Enamorus's ability to break through the likes of Great Tusk, Dondozo, and Garganacl means that physical attackers like Kingambit, Dragonite, Baxcalibur, and Cinderace make for excellent partners, as in return, they can threaten Pokemon like Amoonguss and Scizor.

These attributes are further bolstered by Enamorus's solid Speed tier, outspeeding the likes of Zapdos, Sandy Shocks Landorus-T, and Hydreigon.
