Monotype Tapu Lele (Fairy)

[Perish Song]

[OVERVIEW]
Fairy
===================

Tapu Lele serves as a unique wallbreaker for Fairy teams thanks to its ability Psychic Surge, which strengthens its Psychic-type moves while also blocking priority moves from foes like Scizor, Weavile, and Dragonite. Moreover, Tapu Lele's STAB combination is very good against many matchups, and, (AC) with the help of wallbreaker teammates like Azumarill and Tapu Bulu, it can easily clean late-game. Coverage options such as Focus Blast and Thunderbolt can help Tapu Lele against Pokemon that it cannot beat normally, such as Heatran, Celesteela, and Mantine. However, its Speed tier is middling; even with a Choice Scarf, Tapu Lele is slower than other common Choice Scarf users such as Gengar, Blacephalon, and Weavile. This Speed, combined with its bad defenses, means Tapu Lele cannot reliably switch into threats and is oftentimes limited to revenge killing or accepting heavy hits. This also leaves Tapu Lele weak to the aforementioned Choice Scarf users. Lastly, Psychic Terrain also blocks teammate priority moves, such as Azumarill's Aqua Jet and Mimikyu's Shadow Sneak.

[SET COMMENTS]

Psychic is Tapu Lele's main STAB attack and takes on Poison-types such as Dragalge, Toxapex, and Nidoking, and, (AC) with the help of Psychic Terrain, it is capable of picking off neutral targets such as Mamoswine and Cinderace after minor chip damage. Moonblast allows Tapu Lele to take on Dragon-types such as Kyurem, Garchomp, Dracovish, and Latios. Focus Blast deals damage to Steel-types such as Heatran, Ferrothorn, and Bisharp, as well as Tyranitar. Thunderbolt hits Mantine and Celesteela. A Timid nature and 252 EVs in Speed make Tapu Lele as fast as possible, and a Choice Scarf allows it to outspeed Choice Scarf Excadrill, non-Choice Scarf Dragapult, Zeraora, and Tapu Koko.

Tapu Lele is used best as a late-game cleaner; Azumarill and Tapu Bulu are phenomenal partners to weaken the enemy team in preparation. Azumarill is helpful against Steel- and Fire-types, such as Celesteela, Heatran, Victini, and Cinderace, while Tapu Bulu can break through Electric-, Ground-, and Water-types such as Rotom-W, Swampert, Hippowdon, and Mantine. Klefki is another excellent supporting partner thanks to its plethora of excellent utility moves; Spikes contributes majorly to weakening the opposing team, Thunder Wave cripples faster Choice Scarf users such as Terrakion, Keldeo, and Urshifu-R, and dual screens support makes it even more difficult for opposing threats to handle Tapu Lele, especially late-game. Clefable is a decent support option because it can provide Stealth Rock to weaken the opposing team. Clefable can also use Knock Off to rid bulky Pokemon such as Celesteela and Ferrothorn of their passive recovery, meaning these Pokemon get worn out after multiple switches, and threaten them with Flamethrower. Mimikyu is an excellent revenge killer and one-time blanket check to most Pokemon thanks to its ability Disguise, and it is helpful against Psychic teams, which benefit from Tapu Lele's Psychic Terrain. Tapu Koko can take on Flying-types such as Celesteela and Mantine for Tapu Lele and pivot it in with Volt Switch. Togekiss can help against Steel-types such as Celesteela and Ferrothorn with Flamethrower. Togekiss also provides Heal Bell support against status conditions such as paralysis and Toxic poison and can use Defog. Galarian Weezing is excellent against opposing Fairy-type teams, and it provides Toxic Spikes for Tapu Lele to break through bulky Pokemon such as Porygon2 even better.

[STRATEGY COMMENTS]
Other Options
=============

Choice Specs can be used over Choice Scarf for immediate power in exchange for Speed. Shadow Ball can be used over Thunderbolt to hit Aegislash and Jirachi super effectively.

Checks and Counters
===================

**Steel-type Pokemon**: Despite Tapu Lele running Focus Blast to get past Steel-types, the attack itself is unreliable due to low accuracy and PP, and Steel-types such as Aegislash and Jirachi don't mind it much. Moreover, Steel-types that often run Protect, such as Celesteela and Ferrothorn, can scout for Tapu Lele's chosen move and pivot accordingly.

**Revenge Killing**: Faster Choice Scarf users such as Terrakion, Keldeo, Dragapult, and both Urshifu formes can outspeed Choice Scarf Tapu Lele and threaten it. Other faster threats include Excadrill in sand, Barraskewda in rain, and Alolan Raichu in Electric Terrain.

**Specially Defensive Pokemon**: Specially defensive Pokemon such as Blissey, Aegislash, and Jirachi can easily take hits from Tapu Lele and stall it out with status effects such as poison.

**Dark-type Pokemon**: Tapu Lele is threatened by Dark-types since it risks locking itself into Psychic. Pokemon such as Weavile, Bisharp, Drapion, and Tyranitar can all take advantage of Tapu Lele, but they have to be cautious of Moonblast and Focus Blast.

**Paralysis**: Tapu Lele is reliant on its Choice Scarf to cover up its mediocre Speed tier; therefore, it must avoid paralysis spreaders such as Zapdos and Tyranitar. However, the aforementioned Pokemon need to be careful with Tapu Lele, as they take considerable damage from it.

Perish Song what's the progress on this?

 

[Perish Song]

Gonna finish weekend. Not paying attention to it past 3 weeks due to exam marathon

 

[maroon]

[Overview]
- im confused how the last bullet has to do with scarf pult, its always weak to that set. use a different example imo

[Set Comments]
- move the usage tip to the last line of the 2nd paragraph in set comments
- mention that psychic takes on poison-types for fairy teams, list some of em
- add tyranitar as a focus blast target
- thunderbolt also hits celesteela
- name a threat tapu lele can outpace thanks to choice scarf
- for klefki, since urshifu-s is a dark-type prankster thunder wave doesn't affect it, change it to urshifu-r
- add tapu koko & togekiss as teammates

[Other Options]
- add shadow ball as an other option, it can hit aegislash and jirachi. you don't need to mention shadow ball in the checks & counters section though since its just in oo

[Checks and Counters]
- gastrodon, mantine, and ferrothorn should not be in the special walls section; psychic, thunderbolt, and focus blast still chunk them even with scarf. find different examples
- add paralysis, since it relies on choice scarf for its speed

Good Job, QC 1/3!

Did this

 

[Harpp]

* Coverage options such as Focus Blast and Thunderbolt can help Tapu Lele against Pokemon that it cannot beat normally, such as Celesteela, Heatran, and Mantine. Shift Heatran before Celesteela in the example since you talk about Focus Blast first.
* Its speed tier is middling, Tapu Lele is slower than many offensive Pokemon such as Urshifu, Hydreigon, Mimikyu, and Thundurus. This is absolutely true when we are talking about Tapu Lele without Choice Scarf however the set in question is for a Choice Scarf which does outspeeds your examples so change it to how even with a Choice Scarf, Tapu Lele is not able to outspeed faster Pokemon such as Choice Scarf Gengar, Blacephalon, and Weavile, due to its mediocre Speed stat.
* * This means Tapu Lele cannot reliably switch in, it is oftentimes forced to attempt at revenge killing or is forced to take a hit. This also leaves Tapu Lele weak to opposing Choice Scarf users such as Gengar. Also, add in its poor physical defense stat which grants low to no switching opportunities.
* *Psychic is its main STAB attack that takes on Poison-types such as Dragalge, Toxapex and Nidoking. And also the hardest hitting STAB move due to the boost from Psychic Terrain, letting it take care of neutral targets like Mamoswine and Cinderace after minor chip damage.
* Azumarill is helpful against Steel- and Fire-types such as Ferrothorn, Celesteela, and Ferrothorn Fire-types? Victini, Cinderace, while Tapu Bulu can break through Electric, Ground- and Water-types such as Rotom-W, Swampert, Hippowdon, and Mantine.
* Klefki is another excellent partner for Tapu Lele, its access to a plethora of excellent utility moves makes Klefki a good support. Having access to Spikes contributes majorly to weakening the opposing team, thus providing an easier time to Tapu Lele in the late game. Thunder Wave helps with crippling faster Choice Scarf users such as Terrakion, Keldeo, and Urshifu-R, and Screens allows Tapu Lele to take a few hits if necessary. Add dual screen support making Tapu Lele harder to stop from cleaning late-game.

QC 2/3 Good job!

However, Its speed tier is middling, even with Choice Scarf Tapu Lele is slower than other common Choice Scarf users such as Gengar, Blacephalon, and Weavile. Combining Tapu Lele's mediocre speed with its bad defenses, Tapu Lele cannot reliably switch into threats, it is oftentimes forced to attempt at revengekilling or is forced to take a hit. This also leaves Tapu Lele weak to aforementioned opposing Choice Scarf users. (I'd probably mention somewhere that Tapu Lele's Psychic Terrain can backfire for teammates such as Azumarill and Mimikyu which run priority moves, even though this can be patched up by Bulu or Koko's terrains.)

Focus Blast allows Tapu Lele to deal damage to Steel-types such as Heatran, Ferrothorn, and Bisharp, as well as Tyranitar. Thunderbolt allows Tapu Lele to deal damage to Mantine and Celesteela. A Timid nature along with 252 EVs in Speed was given to make Tapu Lele as fast as possible, and Choice Scarf allows Tapu Lele to outspeed Choice Scarf Excadrill, non choiced Dragapult, Zeraora and Tapu Koko. The rest of EVs are dumped into Special Attack to allow Tapu Lele hit as hard as possible. The ability Psychic Surge is used to automatically set Psychic Terrain, which blocks priority and boosts the power of Psychic.

Togekiss can help against Steel-types such as Celesteela and Ferrothorn with Flamethrower. Togekiss also provides Heal Bell support against status conditions such as paralysis and toxic, and has access to Defog to get rid of entry hazards. Galarian Weezing is excellent against opposing Fairy-type teams, and it provides Toxic Spikes for Tapu Lele to break bulky Pokemon such as Chansey (Use a different example here as not only is Chansey inferior to Blissey in the current meta, but it's also still able to check Tapu Lele despite being poisoned because Seismic Toss is a 3HKO.) even better. Tapu Lele is used best as a late-game cleaner. It relies on teammates such as Azumarill and Tapu Bulu to weaken the enemy team, and teammates like Klefki can provide hazards to make Tapu Lele's job easier.

[OVERVIEW]
Fairy
===================

Tapu Lele serves as a unique wallbreaker for Fairy teams thanks to its ability Psychic Surge, which boosts the damage of strengthens its Psychic-type moves while also blocking priority moves from foes like Scizor, Weavile, and Dragonite for Tapu Lele and its grounded allies. Moreover, Tapu Lele's STAB combination is very good against many matchups, and, (AC) with the help of wallbreaker teammates like Azumarill and Tapu Bulu, Tapu Lele it can easily clean late-game. Coverage options such as Focus Blast and Thunderbolt can help Tapu Lele against Pokemon that it cannot beat normally, such as Heatran, Celesteela, and Mantine. However, its Speed tier is middling; (added semicolon) and even with a Choice Scarf, Tapu Lele is slower than other common Choice Scarf users such as Gengar, Blacephalon, and Weavile. This Speed, combined with its bad defenses, means Tapu Lele cannot reliably switch into threats and is oftentimes limited to serving as a revenge killer or forced to take a hit revenge killing or accepting heavy hits. This also leaves Tapu Lele weak to the aforementioned Choice Scarf users. Lastly, Psychic Terrain's priority-blocking effect may block Tapu Lele's own teammates' also blocks teammate priority moves, such as Azumarill's Aqua Jet and Mimikyu's Shadow Sneak.

[SET COMMENTS]

Psychic is Tapu Lele's main STAB attack that and takes on Poison-types such as Dragalge, Toxapex, and Nidoking, and, (AC) with the help of Psychic Terrain, it is capable of picking off neutral targets such as Mamoswine and Cinderace after minor chip damage. Moonblast allows Tapu Lele to take on Dragon-types such as Kyurem, Garchomp, Dracovish, and Latios. Focus Blast lets Tapu Lele deals damage to Steel-types such as Heatran, Ferrothorn, and Bisharp, as well as Tyranitar. Thunderbolt allows Tapu Lele to deal damage to hits Mantine and Celesteela. A Timid nature and 252 EVs in Speed make Tapu Lele as fast as possible, and a Choice Scarf allows Tapu Lele it to outspeed Choice Scarf Excadrill, non-Choice Scarf Dragapult, Zeraora, and Tapu Koko. The rest of the EVs are dumped into Special Attack to allow Tapu Lele to hit as hard as possible. The ability Psychic Surge is used to automatically set Psychic Terrain, which blocks priority moves and boosts the power of Psychic-type moves.

Tapu Lele is used best as a late-game cleaner; Azumarill and Tapu Bulu make phenomenal partners for Tapu Lele, as they can weaken the enemy team for it to clean late-game are phenomenal partners to weaken the enemy team in preparation. Azumarill is helpful against Steel- and Fire-types, such as Celesteela, Heatran, Victini, and Cinderace, while Tapu Bulu can break through Electric-, Ground-, and Water-types such as Rotom-W, Swampert, Hippowdon, and Mantine. Klefki is another excellent supporting partner for Tapu Lele thanks to its plethora of excellent utility moves; Spikes contributes majorly to weakening the opposing team, providing an easier time for Tapu Lele late-game, Thunder Wave helps with crippling Thunder Wave cripples faster Choice Scarf users such as Terrakion, Keldeo, and Urshifu-R, and dual screens support makes it even more difficult for opposing threats to handle Tapu Lele, especially late-game. Clefable is a decent support option for Tapu Lele, as because it can provide Stealth Rock, which is helpful for weakening to weaken the opposing team. Clefable can also use Knock Off to cripple rid bulky Pokemon such as Celesteela and Ferrothorn to prevent of their passive recovery, (removed checker comment) meaning these Pokemon get worn out after multiple switches, and threaten them with Flamethrower. Mimikyu is an excellent revenge killer and one-time (removed checker comment) blanket check to most Pokemon thanks to its ability Disguise, and it is helpful against Psychic teams, (AC) which benefit from Tapu Lele's Psychic Terrain. (I imagine this makes mimikyu more valuable as a partner? if not worth mentioning or incorrect, though, just ignore) Tapu Koko can take on Flying-types such as Celesteela and Mantine for Tapu Lele and can also act as a pivot for Tapu Lele pivot it in with Volt Switch. Togekiss can help against Steel-types such as Celesteela and Ferrothorn with Flamethrower. Togekiss also provides Heal Bell support against status conditions such as paralysis and Toxic poison and has access to Defog to get rid of entry hazards can use Defog. Galarian Weezing is excellent against opposing Fairy-type teams, and it provides Toxic Spikes for Tapu Lele to break through bulky Pokemon such as Porygon2 even better. Tapu Lele is used best as a late-game cleaner.

Other Options

Checks and Counters
===================

**Steel-type Pokemon**: (moved : to the right of **) Despite Tapu Lele having access to running Focus Blast to get past Steel-types, the attack itself is unreliable due to low accuracy and PP, and Steel-types such as Aegislash and Jirachi can take advantage of Tapu Lele's moveset don't mind it much. Moreover, other Steel-types that often run Protect, (AC) such as Celesteela and Ferrothorn, (AC) can scout for Tapu Lele's moves chosen move and pivot accordingly.

**Revenge Killing**: Faster Choice Scarf users such as Terrakion, Keldeo, Dragapult, and both Urshifu formes can outspeed Choice Scarf Tapu Lele and threaten it.
