- Moonblast
- Moonlight
Cresselia lights up RU! With Calm Mind and its considerable bulk, Cresselia can become a dangerous late-game sweeper. Psyshock is used to deal more damage to Blissey and beat other Calm Mind users like Slowbro and Suicune. Moonblast hits the Dark-types like Krookodile and Umbreon that are immune to Psyshock super effectively. Tera Poison is used primarily to gain immunity to Toxic from Quagsire and Umbreon, but Cresselia also appreciates shedding its weaknesses to Krookodile's Knock Off and Mimikyu's Shadow Claw while still keeping its Fighting resistance to check Breloom and Terrakion. 136 Speed EVs ensure Cresselia outspeeds Adamant Bisharp and Breloom. Cresselia can fit on a variety of teams, excelling on balance and bulky offense structures that can wear down its checks to enable its sweep. Dark- and Fighting-type allies such as Umbreon and Chesnaught can cover Cresselia's weaknesses, while offensive Ground- and Fire-types like Krookodile and Entei can target the Steel-types that it struggles to break through.
