Klefki @ Light Clay
Ability: Prankster
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spe
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Reflect
- Light Screen
- Thunder Wave / Spikes
- Fairy Lock
Despite its terrible design, Klefki has cemented itself as a staple on Fairy teams due to its incredible defensive typing allowing it to take Poison- and Steel-type attacks from foes such as Thundurus-T and Scizor. Dual screens allow Klefki to support setup sweepers such as Belly Drum Azumarill and Calm Mind users like Clefable, Tapu Koko, and Tapu Fini. Spikes chips down foes, allowing teammates such as Tapu Lele and Tapu Koko to wallbreak more effectively. Thunder Wave cripples faster foes such as Volcarona, Cinderace, and Spectrier, making it easier for teammates to revenge kill them. Fairy Lock traps foes such as Excadrill, Galarian Slowking, and Swampert, allowing them to be reliably dealt with the following turn. Once such threats are dealt with, teammates such as Tapu Bulu, Tapu Fini, and Tapu Koko can sweep matchups like Ground, Poison, and Water with ease. Tapu Bulu and Azumarill help with Ground-types such as Nidoking and Landorus-T; Azumarill also deals with Fire-types, while Tapu Bulu provides passive recovery with Grassy Terrain.

Trotz seines schrecklichen Designs hat sich Klefki aufgrund seiner unglaublichen defensiven Typenkombination, die es ihm ermöglicht, Angriffe vom Typ Gift und Stahl von Gegnern wie Thundurus-T und Scizor abzuwehren in das Metagame einzementiert. Deswegen hat es sich als fester Bestandteil von Feen-Teams etabliert. Dual-Screens ermöglicht Klefki, Setup-Sweeper wie Belly Drum-Azumarill und Calm Mind-Benutzer wie Clefable, Tapu Koko und Tapu Fini zu unterstützen. Spikes schwächen Gegner erheblich und ermöglichen es Teampartner wie Tapu Lele und Tapu Koko effektiver Walls zu durchbrechen. Thunder Wave lähmt schnellere Gegner wie Volcarona, Cinderace und Spectrier und macht es Teampartner leichter sie zu revengekillen. Fairy Lock trappt Gegner wie Excadrill, Galarian Slowking und Swampert, wodurch man sie in der folgenden Runde zuverlässig behandeln kann. Sobald solche Threats bewältigt sind können Teampartner wie Tapu Bulu, Tapu Fini und Tapu Koko mühelos Matchups wie Ground, Poison und Water sweepen. Tapu Bulu und Azumarill helfen bei Boden-Pokémon wie Nidoking und Landorus-T; Azumarill befasst sich außerdem mit Feuer-Pokémon, während Tapu Bulu mit Grassy Terrain passive KP-Heilung anbietet.
