Choice Specs Florges is a terrifying wallbreaker, able to utilise its solid bulk, strong Special Attack, and limited resists to Moonblast to carve out a solid niche in PU. Trick can cripple special walls such as Milotic and Alolan Sandslash, allowing Florges and its teammates to break through them easier. Psychic Noise can be used to beat Poison-types such as Amoonguss and Salazzle while also making sure special walls such as Milotic and opposing Florges cannot heal off its damage. Tera Blast can be used on sets that utilise Tera Ground to break through common Florges switch ins such as Galarian Slowbro, Alolan Sandslash, and Fire-types such as Hisuian Typhlosion and Delphox that Florges might otherwise struggle with. Synthesis can alternatively be used to make sure Florges can keep itself healthy over a match for bulkier teams while letting it help check Pokemon such as Passimian and Tatsugiri, allowing Florges to continue being a nuisance post-Trick. Tera Fairy can be used to boost Florges's Moonblast to astonishing power, allowing it to 2HKO both Rotom-H and specially defensive Milotic. Tera Ground is primarily used on sets that pack Tera Blast, hitting the majority of Florges's usual checks such as Alolan Sandslash and Galarian Slowbro, but can also make Florges immune to Double Shock from Pawmot and gives it a Poison resist to take hits from Skuntank and Salazzle. Florges by large prefers Modest, as the extra damage output can allow it to 3HKO Snorlax and 2HKO Lanturn after Stealth Rock, but Timid can be utilised to outspeed Hoopa and Hisuian Braviary.
Florges fits best on bulky offense and balance teams, who appreciate its wall breaking power and ability to soft check Pokemon such as Tatsugiri and Jolteon. Pokemon such as Lanturn and Bruxish that can take on Pokemon such as Delphox and Alolan Sandslash that can otherwise take hits from Florges are great for Florges so it can use options like Synthesis. Conversly, Pokemon such as Alolan Sandslash, and Hisuian Qwilfish that heavily struggle with Fire- and Steel-types love Florges's ability to lure them in with Tera Blast and remove them from the battle, which can make them a lot more threatening. Pivot Pokemon such as Rotom-H, Zoroark, and Bruxish are great for Florges, as they can help it get in and out of battle easily while also luring in Pokemon such as Scrafty and Hisuian Qwilfish that Florges can start spamming Moonblast against. A majority of Florges's checks are Stealth Rock weak, so Knock Off users such as Ambipom and Alolan Sandslash can help remove their items for Florges. Paralysis users such as Grimmsnarl, Dudunsparce, and Porygon2 are great partners for Florges, as they can slow down faster foes such as Salazzle and Paldean Tauros-F that would usually be able to outspeed it, while in return Florges can threaten out common paralysis absorbers such as Milotic, Pawmot, and Mudsdale they might struggle with.
