OU Clefable

Clefable @ Leftovers
Ability: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
- Moonblast
- Soft-Boiled
- Stealth Rock
- Wish

Clefable stands out as one of the best Pokemon in OU thanks to its amazing typing, passable bulk, good ability, and access to reliable recovery. Its typing and bulk allows it to beat threatening Pokemon like Hawlucha, Choice Band Zygarde, and Mega Lopunny. Magic Guard makes Clefable immune to passive damage like Toxic poison and Stealth Rock, bolstering its ability to take hits. Clefable is an outstanding user of Wish to keep Pokemon like Heatran and Landorus-T from being worn down. Clefable usually struggles against Steel-types like Celesteela, Mega Scizor, and Heatran, which is why Pokemon that can pressure Steel-types such as Heatran and Zygarde are usually good teammates. Clefable is very adaptable to its team thanks to moves like Calm Mind, Knock Off, and Thunder Wave, letting it support any team.

This is a bit nitpicky but I definitely wouldn’t say Clefable has amazing bulk. 95/73/90 is actually rather mediocre, I’d leave it at amazing typing and ability, but if you do want to mention it’s bulk I think passable is a good adjective.
Its typing and bulk allows it to beat threatening Pokemon like Hawlucha, Zygarde, Mega Medicham, and Mega Lopunny.
I wouldn’t say Clefable is able to beat Mega Medicham, without any chip damage whatsoever it has basically a 50% chance to get 2HKOed by Zen Headbutt. I’d also specify most variants of Zygarde, as Weakness Policy can beat non-Knock Off Clef np.
Clefable is very customizable to its team thanks to its wide variety of moves like Wish, Thunder Wave, Knock Off, and even Flamethrower, letting it provide a bunch of different sorts of support for its team.
This is also rather nitpicky, but you don’t really have to mention every single move on its last option, so I’d just cut Flamethrower and Thunder Wave.

Most of this is kinda nitpicky, good job bro. QC 1/1

Hi, I know I should've said this earlier when u asked me to look over this but I was busy and then forgot, sorry about that. Anyway, qc agreed on Wish being the far superior choice for clef's last move and it's been edited onto its analysis (I could've sworn it was already first) so make sure to change that to reflect the current move order in the dex, tag me again when you're done with this and I'll give a last check.
