Thanks to its good stats and movepool as well as access to Shadow Shield, Lunala is an outstanding specially defensive pivot that is capable of switching into premier special attackers like Eternatus and Lugia. Ice Beam can be used to hit Dragonite, Great Tusk, and Eternatus. Alternatively, Psychic can be used to hit Eternatus harder, while Future Sight is also an option that allows Lunala to support its potential partners such as Urshifu-R and Galarian Zapdos. Psyshock is a fringe option that hits non-Gyaradosite Clodsire for more damage. Leftovers allows Lunala to potentially deal with special-attacking threats in a better fashion, while Heavy-Duty Boots can be used instead to keep up Shadow Shield even if entry hazards go up. Physical walls such as Corviknight and bulky Arceus formes synergize well with Lunala because they can deal with physically offensive foes like Iron Boulder and Tough Claws Solgaleo, while Lunala takes care of specially offensive Pokemon like Lugia and special Solgaleo. Setup sweepers and pivots such as special Solgaleo, Dragonite, and Urshifu-R also benefit from Lunala's ability to pivot them in. Lunala is extremely vulnerable to Dark-types like Hisuian Samurott, Weavile, and Darkrai, so it appreciates partners that check them, such as Hisuian Arcanine, Regieleki, and the aforementioned Dragonite and Urshifu-R; Regieleki also supports Leftovers Lunala excellently, helping it retain Shadow Shield by keeping the field free of hazards with Rapid Spin. Lunala has difficulty in dealing with Calm Mind users such as Arceus formes and Magearna, so it appreciates checks to those like Latiasite Solgaleo, Toxic Eternatus, and Whirlwind Ho-Oh.

Physical walls such as Corviknight and bulky the you're already implying that arceus is a physical wall so i don't think its necessary to say "bulky" Arceus formes synergize well with Lunala because they can deal with physically offensive foes like Iron Boulder and Tough Claws Solgaleo, while Lunala takes care of the specially offensive ones foes or some other synonym like Lugia and special Solgaleo.
