Indeedee-F's typing, ability, and movepool make it an excellent support Pokemon. Its Normal / Psychic typing allows it to deal with Calyrex-S well, and Psychic Surge has immense utility in Regulation G, as it blocks priority moves like Fake Out from Incineroar and Rillaboom and Prankster Taunt from Tornadus while also denying the terrains that power up Miraidon and Rillaboom. The combination of Follow Me and Trick Room allows Indeedee-F to threaten either setting up Trick Room itself or redirecting away attacking moves and Taunt to enable a partner to set up Trick Room. Once the dimensions have been twisted, it can use Helping Hand to make a partner Trick Room sweeper even more threatening. Its last move is usually an attacking move to make it less prone to Taunt; Dazzling Gleam pairs well with Tera Fairy and lets it damage both foes, while Psychic gives it a strong Psychic Terrain-boosted STAB move regardless of Tera type. Alluring Voice is an acceptable alternative to Dazzling Gleam, letting Indeedee-F punish setup sweepers like IronPress Zamazenta-C and Nasty Plot Calyrex-S while also bypassing the prominent Wide Guard. The Fairy-type attacks allow Indeedee-F to break Focus Sashes on Dark-types like Chien-Pao, Chi-Yu, and Urshifu so its partner can remove them quickly. However, Psychic allows Indeedee-F to OHKO Urshifu-R. Psychic Seed complements Psychic Surge well, as it reinforces Indeedee-F's special bulk. Safety Goggles allows it to bypass Amoonguss's Rage Powder and redirect away Spore for the benefit of its teammates, while Rocky Helmet lets it damage physical attackers whose contact moves it can redirect; Rocky Helmet can even break a Focus Sash from an Urshifu or Chien-Pao and severely punish Urshifu-R for using Surging Strikes. Tera Fairy allows Indeedee-F to resist the Dark-type attacks that would otherwise threaten it such as Incineroar's Knock Off and Urshifu's Wicked Blow while powering up Fairy-type moves that it may carry. Alternatively, Tera Grass lets it bypass Amoonguss's disruption and become immune to its Spore without having to use Safety Goggles while also granting a resistance to Water- and Electric-type attacks from the likes of Urshifu-R and Miraidon.
With Indeedee-F's utility, it can fit on a variety of teams that appreciate Psychic Terrain, redirection, or its ability to set Trick Room. Calyrex-S appreciates Psychic Terrain blocking priority moves, namely Chien-Pao's Sucker Punch, and powering up its Psychic-type attacks; it is even able to run the devastating Expanding Force with Indeedee-F. Calyrex-S also takes advantage of Indeedee-F's redirection to fire off more of its brutal attacks without fear of retaliation and also benefits from Helping Hand pushing its damage potential up to eleven. Calyrex-I pairs well with Indeedee-F, as it is both a Trick Room setter and a sweeper, meaning that the opponent is hard-pressed to stop either Pokemon from setting up Trick Room with Indeedee-F's support, and once it is set up, Indeedee-F immediately enables Calyrex-I to deal big damage with Helping Hand. Other Trick Room sweepers like Ursaluna, Ursaluna-B, and Torkoal appreciate that Indeedee-F can support them with Helping Hand and Follow Me on top of its ability to set up Trick Room. Indeedee-F is very vulnerable to Dark-types like Urshifu, Chi-Yu, and Incineroar, as the threat of their powerful moves makes it more hesitant to use Follow Me. It also hates Taunt, which completely shuts down all of its utility and thus its field presence. Rillaboom can also interfere with strategies predicated on Psychic Terrain blocking Fake Out.
