Calm Mind Enamorus-Therian has the ability to both break apart teams by spamming its STAB moves and coverage, as well as setup late in the game with Calm Mind and Draining Kiss. Enamorus-T sports a Fairy / Flying typing, granting it resistances that help it to enter the field on choice locked Fighting-type Pokemon like Mienshao and Galarian Zapdos, or on Ground-type Pokemon like Krookodile lacking Gunk Shot and Hippowdon lacking Stone Edge. Cyclizar and Chesnaught provide good defensive pokemon for Enamorus-T to wreak havoc on, but it must fear Knock Off removing its Heavy-Duty Boots in longer games. Choosing the correct point in the game to set up is crucial, as this Enamorus-T set does not invest in much bulk, and still has trouble breaking through checks like Moltres and Rotom-Heat when they’re healthy. Earth Power can be swapped with Mystical Fire if the player prefers to hit Amoongus and Revavroom hard without needing to break the latter’s Air Balloon, but sacrifices coverage versus Pokemon like Volcanion and Empoleon. Draining Kiss is used to keep Enamorus-T healthy and facilitate a sweep, while Moonblast helps give Enamorus-T a powerful STAB to immediately threaten offensive Pokemon like Blastoise and Iron Leaves that comfortably live unboosted Earth Power and Draining Kiss. Heavy-Duty Boots keeps Enamorus-T safe from losing 25% of its from Stealth Rocks. The EV spread gives Enamorus-T enough Speed to outspeed uninvested base 60s like Swampert and Empoleon, that may not invest in Speed due to desiring a slow Flip Turn pivot, with maxed Special Attack to hit as hard as possible and an odd HP value to guarantee the maximum number of switch-ins to Stealth Rock damage if Enamorus-T loses its Heavy-Duty Boots. Enamorus-T is a great abuser of Tera, choosing Ground to trap Thundurus-Incarnate and Rotom-Heat from volt switching to a teammate and boosting it’s already strong Earth Powers. More defensive Tera types like Poison and Electric block Toxic and Paralysis respectively, making Enamorus-T less vulnerable to status from Pokemon such as Okidogi, Fezandipiti, and Jirachi while resisting their STAB attacks, potentially setting up a free Calm Mind.

Due to Enamorus-T’s great immunities, resistances, general bulk, it can fit on many different teams' playstyles. Bulky Offense teams in particular appreciate its immunities to Dragon and Ground moves as well as a double resistance to Fighting. Enamorus-T can switch in on and immediately threaten slow defensive pokemon like Slowbro that threaten Scald burns on Enamorus-T’s physical attacking teammates. Hippowdon is an excellent teammate, as it provides an electric immunity that sets up Stealth Rocks to capitalize off the switches Enamorus-T forces, and chips down Enamorus-T checks like Moltres and Rotom-H with sand while Enamorus-T avoids damage completely due to Overcoat. Cobalion partners well with Enamorus-T by resisting Poison and Steel-type attacks from threats like Revavroom and Bisharp. Volt Switch Cobalion can chunk the fire bird and bring in a teammate that stops the bird from healing, or Stone Edge can blow Moltres away and eliminate one of the only resistances to Enamorus-T’s STAB combination. Choice Scarf Gardevoir can help clean up games after Enamorus-T has weakened the opponent’s Moonblast switch-ins, use Healing Wish to bring Enamorus-T back to full health, or use Trick to steal a check such as Moltres and Rotom-H's Heavy-Duty Boots, assisting Enamorus-T in beating them later. Another omnipresent staple on Bulky Offense teams, Cyclizar, provides some speed control and Rapid Spin support so Enamorus can more easily switch in on potential Knock Offs from Galarian Zapdos and opposing Cyclizar. Enamorus-T is also a good pick for hyper offense teams for its aforementioned immunities and ability to be extremely dangerous after just one Calm Mind.

Calm Mind Enamorus has the ability to both break apart teams by spamming its STAB moves and coverage, as well as setup late in the game with Calm Mind and Draining Kiss. This Enamorus set should not simply Calm Mind as soon as it comes into the game, but instead, the player should evaluate if it's better to attack first and weaken the opposing Enamorus check before boosting. try to rewrite this sentence so that it doesn't read like a guidebook, you can say that enam checks many threats which makes it switch-in often but choosing the right time to setup is crucial as it can only work if its checks are weakened Earth Power can be swapped with Mystical Fire if the player prefers to hit Revavroom hard without needing to break its Air Balloon, but sacrifices coverage versus pokemon like Volcanion and Empoleon. add that it hits Amoonguss + add an explanation of why the double stab and quick sentence about item The EV spread gives Enamorus enough Speed to outspeed uninvested base 60s like Swampert and Empoleon, that may not invest in Speed due to desiring a slow Flip Turn pivot, with maxed Special Attack to hit as hard as possible. Enamorus is a great abuser of Tera, either choosing Ground for an Electric immunity and stronger Earth Power add which mu it flips, a more defensive Tera like Poison or Steel which block Toxic status form Pokemon such as Okidogi and Fezandipiti, or Electric to resist Jirachi’s Iron Head and become immune to its Body Slam paralysis. so after re evaluation of enam's tera, we think that ground, fairy, poison are worth a mention in the main paragraph so scrap steel and electric out. if you want to be thorough with it you can write a "Other Options" section under which you could mention these Teras (pm me on discord if you go for this format). Also when talking about a Tera, it's interesting to talk about the resistances it gains and how it affects certain common mu, for instance Poison gives a Poison resistance which lets it beat Okidogi or Gengar and so on so be sure to complete this part.

Due to Enamorus’s great immunities, resistances, and general bulk, it can fit on many different teams' playstyles. Bulky Offense teams in particular appreciate its breaking power and ability to act as a late-game sweeper while offering dragon and ground immunities add double resist to fighting. Hippowdon is an excellent teammate, as it provides an electric immunity that sets up Stealth Rocks to capitalize off the switches Enamorus forces, and chips down Enamorus checks like Moltres and Rotom-H with sand while Enamorus avoids damage completely due to Overcoat. Volt Switch Cobalion is a partner that both resists Poison and Steel-type attacks from Revavroom, and lures in Moltres while Volt Switching and bringing a teammate that stops the bird from healing mention Stone Edge as coverage for coba. Choice Scarf Gardevoir can help clean up games after Enamorus has weakened the opponent’s Moonblast switch-ins, use healing wish to bring Enamorus back to full health, or use Trick to steal a check such as Moltres and Rotom-H's Heavy-Duty Boots, assisting Enamorus in beating them later. Another omnipresent staple on Bulky Offense teams, Cyclizar, provides some speed control and Rapid Spin support so Enamorus can more easily switch in on potential Knock Offs from Zapdos-G and opposing Cyclizar also checks thundy. Enamorus is also a good pick for Hyper Offense teams for its aforementioned immunities and ability to be extremely dangerous after just one Calm Mind.

Good work, read the part on the Teras and don't hesitate to tag me on Discord if you need clarification. On another note, although we always say Enamorus when talking about this mon, you will have to add the -Therian here at least once at the beginning and then you can write Enamorus-T but never just Enamorus. Tag me when these are implemented.

THE_CHUNGLER this is taking too long so let's try to get this done soon. If you did implement the qc above, then update the title of the thread and post here that this is ready for the second qc. You can scrap the Thundurus-T mention at the end btw.

ready for qc 2, but just some things I’d like looked at specifically,

QC said axe the mention of electric Tera, but it may be relevant enough now as it’s been seen in your games to specifically handle jirachi. If we still don’t want it in the main set I can throw in an other options portion or just take it out. I tried to not make the mention distract too much from the main paragraph but I’m not sure if it sounds awkward like this/should be split into 2 sentences, one about poison Tera helping beat dogi/fez, and another sentence about electric beating Jirachi

I also thought it might be relevant to mention Enamorus-T helping to deal with Slowbro as it’s a difficult defensive pokemon to switch into due to scald, here’s what I wrote about that:

“Enamorus-T can switch in on and immediately threaten slow defensive pokemon like Slowbro that threaten Scald burns on Enamorus-T’s physical attacking teammates.”

Not sure if I need to expand on this more and mention what kinds of physical attacking teammates appreciate enamorus dealing with slowbro

Good job, don't forget to add the credits.
