Necrozma-DM is a notable Trick Room attacker in VGC, taking advantage of its great bulk and ability Prism Armor to take a super effective hit and activate Weakness Policy, letting it become a fearsome offensive presence. Necrozma-DM can also utilize Swords Dance to counteract the plethora of Intimidate users such as Incineroar and Landorus-T. Sunsteel Strike has the benefit of KOing Mimikyu through Disguise while also becoming Max Steelspike during Dynamax, letting Necrozma-DM boost its Defense to better take on foes like Groudon and Landorus-T. Earthquake complements Sunsteel Strike by nailing opposing Fire- and Steel-types like Incineroar, Dialga, and Zacian-C; it also becomes Max Quake during Dynamax, boosting Necrozma-DM's Special Defense to help it against Calyrex-S and Kyogre. Dual screens support from Grimmsnarl and Lapras can help Necrozma-DM safely set up with Swords Dance. Teammates such as Tyranitar and Rillaboom that can threaten its checks such as Calyrex-S and Groudon also make for great partners!
