[SET COMMENTS]
Calm Mind Tapu Lele becomes a fearsome breaker after a single boost, threatening common defensive Pokemon like Ferrothorn, Toxapex, and Mega Tyranitar. Focus Blast is useful coverage, hitting many defensive staples like Ferrothorn, Garganacl, and Heatran for super effective damage. Fightinium Z in tandem with Focus Blast allows Tapu Lele to reliably OHKO Ferrothorn and Heatran, and heavily damage Mega Scizor and Ting-Lu Although Tapu Lele is a fearsome wallbreaker, it requires a Calm Mind boost to heavily damage the majority of the metagame, so Pokemon that can provide it a setup opportunity via pivoting such as Urshifu-R, Gliscor, and Alomomola are beneficial. Tapu Lele is also very prone to getting revenge killed by physical attackers that can bypass Tapu Lele's Special Defense boosts, such as Zamazenta, Kartana, and Weavile, so teammates such as Zapdos, Moltres, and Toxapex are appreciated.
