With a good typing, solid special bulk, and access to a slow U-turn, Meloetta is a solid RegenVest user for more offensively-oriented teams that want to keep up momentum while also being able to check prominent special attacking threats like Thundurus, Skeledirge, and Choice Specs Volcanion. Low Kick is used to chip Hisuian Goodra as well as severely dent Iron Treads and Heatran that may be looking to switch in on it. Frail wallbreakers such as Chien-Pao and Galarian Zapdos appreciate Meloetta's ability to slow pivot, ensuring they get in safely. Physically defensive walls like Corviknight and Quaquaval pair well with Meloetta, as they can shore up its Knock Off weakness and vulnerability to strong physical attackers like Slither Wing. Meloetta is prone to entry hazards that impede its ability to take repeated attacks from Zapdos, Thundurus, and Inteleon, so hazard removers like Corviknight and Iron Treads make for good teammates. Meloetta can also struggle with mixed attackers like Magic Guard Volcanion and Heatran, so paring it with offensive pokemon like Regieleki and Galarian Zapdos that can threaten them out is advised. Meloetta also appreciates hazard support from setters like Garchomp and Ting-Lu so that attackers like Inteleon, Greninja, and Rotom-W cannot pivot for free.
