Nihilego's ability to snowball through teams and check Pokemon like Xerneas, Rillaboom, and Incineroar makes it a great Pokemon in the format. Meteor Beam can OHKO Landorus and Incineroar, and then give two Special Attack boosts thanks to Beast Boost. Power Gem is Nihilego's main attack after Power Herb is consumed. It can also run Clear Smog over Sludge Bomb to reset boosts from Xerneas, but its low damage output is a big drawback. Protect is standard, while Trick Room is a counter to hyper offense or slow teams that set Trick Room themselves. Nihilego is physically fragile, but its EV spread allows it to survive Miracle Seed Rillaboom's Grassy Glide.

Calyrex-S and Zacian-C are great Restricted partners for Nihilego, since they can deal with Psychic-types such as Tapu Lele with ease, while Nihilego protects them from Incineroar and Volcarona while also putting Xerneas in check. As for non-Restricted partners, Nihilego appreciates Urshifu-R's ability to shut down threats like Assault Vest Landorus-T, while Nihilego checks Yveltal and Rillaboom. Incineroar and Landorus-T weaken foes such as Rillaboom with Intimidate to provide Nihilego more longevity. Fake Out from Incineroar, Rillaboom, or Mienshao also allows Nihilego to get its Meteor Beam off more safely. Mienshao can use Feint to open the way for Nihilego's Meteor Beam while also protecting it from Kyogre's Water Spout, Groudon's Precipice Blades, and Landorus-T's Earthquake with Wide Guard.

Nihilego's capacity of snowballing games and checking Pokémon like Xerneas, Rillaboom Incineroar makes it a great Rock-type (I'd be tempted to just say Pokemon) in the format. Thanks to its Power Herb and Meteor Beam combination, Nihilego is able to fire an attack that can OHKO Landorus and Incineroar, plus getting even more Special Attack boosts thanks to its Beast Boost ability. Power Gem is Nihilego's main attack after Power Herb is consumed, while Sludge Bomb is its main Poison-type STAB move. Protect is standard, while Trick Room is a counter to hyper offensive teams or removing it from the field. (You're gonna have to explain to me what you mean by this) (I think you could mention Clear Smog, but you don't need to include it on the set due to its low damage) Nihilego plays an offensive game and is very fragile, although its spread allows it to survive Miracle Seed Rillaboom's Grassy Glide. (I'd prefer a mention of its poor Defense, because its HP and Special Defense are good)

Calyrex-S and Zacian-C are great Restricted partners for Nihilego, since they can deal with Psychic-types such as Tapu Lele with ease, while Nihilego protects them from Incineroar and Volcarona while also putting Xerneas in check. As for non-Restricted partners, Nihilego appreciates Urshifu-R's ability to shut down threats like Assault Vest Landorus-T, while Nihilego checks Yveltal and Rillaboom. Incineroar and Landorus-T are great allies to Nihilego, lowering the Attack from foes such as Rillaboom with Intimidate and providing Nihilego more longevity. Incineroar's (Also Rillaboom and Mienshao to be honest) Fake Out pressure also allows Nihilego to get its Meteor Beam more safely. (More on Mienshao, its Feint allows you to hit a Meteor Beam for full damage undeterred and Wide Guard is blocking otherwise lethal moves such a Kyogre's Water Spout, Landorus-T's Earthquake and Groudon's Precipice Blades)
