Unaware Cresselia is an effective mixed wall and unorthodox setup sweeper with the ability to surprise opponents with its combination of Calm Mind and Stored Power. Cresselia is a reliable stop to powerful setup sweepers like Zamazenta-C and Garchomp, which can even be setup fodder for Cresselia. Once set up, Stored Power is Cresselia's main offensive option, dealing ridiculous damage against any non-Psychic-immune foes after two or three Calm Mind boosts. Additionally, Moonblast lets Cresselia threaten Dark- and Dragon-types like Chien-Pao and Garchomp. Because of Cresselia's passive stature and inability to make progress early-game, it shouldn't attempt to set up Calm Mind and sweep until physical attackers with super effective moves like Chien-Pao, Kingambit, and Slither Wing have been removed from play. Additionally, Cresselia fails to effectively defeat some special walls like Unaware Scream Tail and RegenVest Meloetta and Alolan Muk, making offensive teammates that threaten a 2HKO on either of these foes like Kingambit necessary to create openings for Cresselia to sweep. In addition to offensive pairings, this Pokemon appreciates defensive teammates like Intimidate Corviknight that can prevent it from being overwhelmed by Choice item users. Finally, Cresselia appreciates entry hazard removal from teammates like Corviknight, letting it preserve Moonlight's PP for the late-game.

Unaware Cresselia is an effective mixed wall and unorthodox setup sweeper with the ability to surprise opponents with its combination of Calm Mind and Stored Power. While Cresselia's main role is to absorb the opponent's attacks and shrug the damage off with Moonlight, it can turn into a devastating sweeper against opposing teams that don't pack phazing or strong physical attacks that don't at least 2HKO it I'd maybe edit this to say how it can turn to a devastating sweeper against opposing setup mons like Zamazenta-C and Enamorus . Once set up, Stored Power is Cresselia's main offensive option, dealing ridiculous damage against any non-Psychic-immune foes after two or three Calm Mind boosts. Additionally, Moonblast lets Cresselia threaten Dark- and Dragon-types like Chien Pao and Garchomp, with its potency against these foes only increasing as it sets up more boosts. Because of Cresselia's passive stature and inability to make progress in the early-game, it shouldn't attempt to set up Calm Mind and sweep until physically offensive attackers with Super Effective moves like Chien-Pao, Kingambit, or Slither Wing have been removed from play.
