Calyrex-S, the titan of Anything Goes...reduced to a fast support set? In this fast-paced metagame, Calyrex-S finds its place on teams as a supportive cleric that can recycle and revive its way through your entire team, helping enable an entire genre of offensive teambuilding through its presence. Calyrex-S utilizes its high Speed tier and ability to escape trapping to run the Revival Blessing-refueling Leppa Berry as opposed to the standard Ability Shield, which defensive Pokemon usually use to block Neutralizing Gas. Making good use of Wonder Guard, Calyrex-S is able to switch into powerful wallbreakers such as Primal Groudon or non-Huge/Pure Power Kartana and then threaten them out with Last Respects. Calyrex-S's Last Respects grows far beyond the standard power levels thanks to the two arguably most important moves that it runs, Revival Blessing and Lunar Dance. These two moves cycle into each other perfectly, allowing your team to revive and then heal to full any fainted Pokemon, which can then turn around and revive whichever Pokemon fainted to save them, a loop that teams often use in place of healing moves.

[set analysis]

Calyrex-Shadow, the titan of Anything Goes...(remove the space here)reduced to a fast support set? In this fast-paced meta, Calyrex-S (the custom is to keep referring to the non-base form, don't let this get confused with base Calyrex) finds its place on teams as a supportive cleric that can recycle and revive its way through your entire team, helping enable an entire genre of offensive teambuilding through its presence. Calyrex-S abuses its high speed tier and ability to escape trapping because of (replace "because of" with "due to" if you're running into character count issues) its gGhost typing to run the Revival Blessing-refuelling Leppa Berry as opposed to the standard Ability Shield that defensive pPokemon like to block Neutralizing Gas. Making good use of the best defensive ability in the game, Wonder gGuard, Calyrex-S is able to switch into powerful wallbreakers such as Mega-Mewtwo-X (good luck switching into standard enough NGas Last Respects/Collision Course MM2X - maybe replace this with Groudon-Primal) or non-Huge/Pure Power (Huge/Pure Power OHKOes with Sunsteel Strike) Kartana trying to take advantage of other pPokemon on your team that they might threaten, and then threaten them out with Last Respects that grows far beyond the standard power levels thanks to the next two moves that it runs, and arguably the most important, Revival Blessing and Lunar Dance. These two moves cycle into each other perfectly, allowing your team to revive and then heal to full any fainted pPokemon, who can then turn around and revive whoever fainted to save them, a loop that teams often use in place of healing moves.
