Equipped with a Choice Scarf, Enamorus serves as a great sweeper, outspeeding and threatening some of the tier's most common threats like Dragapult, Hisuian Samurott, and Zamazenta. Earth Power is great coverage against Pokemon that would switch into Moonblast such as Heatran, Gholdengo, and Galarian Slowking. Mystical Fire allows Enarmous to 2HKO Air Balloon Gholdengo, which otherwise walls it, and also has a good chance to 2HKO Amoonguss with Stealth Rock support. Tera Fairy boosts Enamorus's already powerful Moonblast to 2HKO Ting-Lu and physically defensive Garganacl. Tera Ground boosts Earth Power, guaranteeing OHKOs against Kingambit and Volcanion as well as 2HKOing physically defensive variants of both Toxapex and Galarian Slowking, while Tera Steel grants Enamorus many resistances including Fairy and Ice; both also reduce its weakness to Stealth Rock at the cost of taking Spikes damage. Contrary is Enamorus's preferred ability, as it helps it against both Mystical Fire and Parting Shot.

Enamorus serves as a great late-game sweeper on various offense teams. It appreciates entry hazard support from the likes of Heatran, Hisuian Samurott, and Landorus-T, so Enamorus can have an easier time to sweep against weakened foes. The three of them can also wallbreak for Enamorus, with Heatran being able to 2HKO both Corviknight and Amoonguss, comma while Hisuian Samurott and Landorus-T can both threaten Galarian Slowking. Teammates like Cinderace and Great Tusk that can remove Stealth Rock make valuable partners. Enamorus dislikes special walls that can hinder its sweep like Dondozo, Assault Vest Toxapex, Cresselia, and Slowking. Hence, teammates that can break down bulkier teams like Choice Band Baxcalibur, offensive Zapdos, and Kingambit make for good teammates. Baxcalibur can 2HKO Toxapex with either Glaive Rush or Earthquake, Zapdos can 2HKO both Toxapex and Dondozo with Thunderbolt, and Kingambit can threaten both Cresselia and Slowking. Kingambit and Enamorus can also both facilitate sweeps for the other, with Kingambit beating Galarian Slowking for Enamorus and Enamorus being able to beat Zamazenta and Great Tusk for Kingambit. Enamorus also pairs well with slower yet bulky wallbreakers such as Baxcalibur and Ursaluna to deal with offense teams, and in return, Enamorus can provide them Healing Wish support. Lastly, Gholdengo makes for another great partner, as it can beat Sneasler which Enamorus struggles with, can switch into anticipated status such as Thunder Wave, and it can also keep hazards onfield placed by Enamorus's teammates.

Equipped with a Choice Scarf, Enamorus is able to serve as a great sweeper, being able to outspeed and threaten some of the tier's most common threats like Dragapult, Hisuian Samurott, and Zamazenta-H. Earth Power is great coverage against Pokemon that would switch into Moonblast such as Heatran, Gholdengo, and Galarian Slowking. Mystical Fire allows Enarmous to 2HKO Air Balloon Gholdengo, which otherwise resists Moonblast and is immune to Earth Power, and it also has a good chance to 2HKO Amoonguss with Stealth Rock support. With Healing Wish, Enamorus can be sacrificed if it's no longer needed in order to aid a potential yet weakened lategame wincon. Tera Fairy boosts Enamorus's already powerful Moonblast to 2HKO Ting-Lu and physically defensive Garganacl. Tera Ground not only boosts Earth Power, guaranteeing OHKOs against Kingambit and Volcanion as well as 2HKOing physically defensive variants of both Toxapex and Galarian Slowking, but it changes Enamorus's weakness to Rock into a resistance, meaning it is no longer heavily affected by Stealth Rock, although it now has to be wary of switching into Spikes. Lastly, Tera Steel not only grants it a Stealth Rock resistance, but it also grants Enamorus many resistances including Fairy and Ice. A word about why you'd run Contrary over Cute Charm here is warranted, as it can help you work around opposing Mystical Fire users, the oddball Parting Shot user, etc etc

Enamorus serves as a great lategame sweeper on various offense teams. It appreciates hazard support from the likes of Heatran, Hisuian Samurott, and Landorus-T so Enamorus can have an easier time to sweep against weakened foes. The three of them can also wallbreak for Enamorus, with Heatran being able to 2HKO both Corviknight and Amoonguss while Hisuian Samurott and Landorus-T can both threaten Galarian Slowking. Landorus-T can also serve as a great pivot to bring in Enamorus in safely against Heatran and Gholdengo so it can threaten them with Earth Power. I'm having trouble imagining how often this can occur, though perhaps I am slow and not following. Does Lando-T not already just threaten those two Pokemon pretty hard? Why would it need to pivot to Enamrous for this role? Enamorus can find it hard to switch in sometimes due to its Stealth Rock weakness. Hence, it appreciates hazard removal from the likes of Great Tusk and Cinderace to alleviate this weakness. Enamorus dislikes special walls that can hinder its sweep like Dondozo, Assault Vest Toxapex, Cresselia, and Slowking. Hence, Choice Band Baxcalibur, offensive Zapdos, and Kingambit make for good teammates. Baxcalibur can 2HKO Toxapex with either Glaive Rush or Earthquake, Zapdos can 2HKO both Toxapex and Dondozo with Thunderbolt, and Kingambit can threaten both Cresselia and Slowking. Kingambit and Enamorus can also both facilitate sweeps for the other, with Kingambit beating Gholdengo In the above highlighted sentence you mentioning Enamrous being able to threaten Gholdengo, so this point here is a bit unclear and Galarian Slowking for Enamorus and Enamorus being able to beat Zamazenta-H and Great Tusk for Kingambit. Lastly, Gholdengo makes for another great partner, as it can beat Sneasler which Enamorus struggles with, can switch into anticipated status such as Thunder Wave, and it can also keep hazards onfield placed by Enamorus's teammates.

I got beaten to the punch by Spoon here but I think its worth mentioning in the second paragraph that Scarf Enam pairs really well with slower breakers like Bax and Ursa since Scarf Enam can deal with Offense while the breakers deal with bulkier teams. That alongside healing wish support too.
