tapu lele struggle to break heatran,tyranitar,ferrothorn,chansey and melmetal. This when m-gallade come to rescue, it would help beat all those mon. M-gallade also benefit from psychic terrain. It enables m-gallade to ohko max def toxapex and 2ohko clefable.

Tapu Lele @ Choice Specs
Ability: Psychic Surge
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Psychic
- Moonblast
- Psyshock
- Hidden Power [Fire]
Zapdos-Galar @ Choice Band
Ability: Defiant
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Brave Bird
- Close Combat
- U-turn
- Stomping Tantrum
So we all know fighting fairy is a great type combo offensively. We all know tapu lele is a gigantic threat. We all know it can’t break heatran chansey and bulky psychics all that well. You know what hard beats two of those and beats the most common of the other one, Gapdos. This pairing is insane Gapdos drags in things like pex and corv one of which lele beats and the other Gapdos 2hkos allow lele to spam psychic moves more freely. All the fighting/flying resists in the meta hate to take lele’s psychics/moonblasts and all the psychic/fairy resists in the meta hate to take Gapdos’ brave birds/close combats. Gapdos also helps get in lele by pivoting into it with uturn.
I have been using this combo forever and it absolutely demolishes teams.

since there is no specific set for lele, i am gonna suppose it is the scarf set because it is the most used set.
here is the partner i am going to choose
Weavile (M) @ Choice Band
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Triple Axel
- Knock Off
- Pursuit
- Low Kick
banded low kick weavile helps scarf lele by killing ttar, victini, tran, bliss, glowking, other lele's and slowbro which are all mons that scarf lele struggle with (also low kick because ice shard might be blocked by psychic terrain and scarf lele could help kill faster mons), in return, lele helps with faster mons, help block scizor's bullet punch and kill it with hp fire, chip/kill clefable, melm, pex and ferro. a mon that could be used with core would be zone who could deal with the steels who annoy this core.

Mawile-Mega @ Mawilite
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 52 HP / 252 Atk / 204 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Focus Punch
- Thunder Punch
- Ice Punch
- Play Rough
Specs pult in particular can struggle vs the likes of ttar and weavile, but a u-turn into 4a mawile can often result in a free kill, as the dark types are terrified of it. Furthermore, mawile helps break holes in general against defensive teams in order for shadow ball to clean late-game
