Chandelure puts itself out there in the metagame with the most powerful Special Attack along with great coverage and a niche Ghost- / Fire-typing. Shadow Ball is Chandelure's go-to Ghost-type STAB move, covering Psychic- and Ghost-types like Gardevoir and Galarian Corsola super effectively, while also hitting Pokemon like Rotom-H and Cinderace for neutral damage. Overheat covers common Grass-, Bug-, and Steel-types like Rillaboom, Golisopod, Jirachi, and Corviknight. Trick can shut down walls like Aromatisse and Type: Null. Energy Ball covers miscellaneous threats like non-Assault Vest Rhyperior, Choice Scarf Rotom-W (albeit a roll), and Gastrodon. The HP and Defense allow Chandelure to take an Earthquake from max Attack Choice Scarf Haxorus and OHKO back with Shadow Ball due to the Special Attacking investments, and the HP and Special Defense lets Chandelure take two hits from Choice Scarf Rotom-H's Thunderbolt, and 2HKO back with Shadow Ball.

Chandelure's weakness to bulky Water-types that it can't KO with Energy Ball like Gyarados, Milotic, and Primarina makes it a good teammate to Electric- or Grass-types like Zeraora, Toxtricity, and Ferrothorn which can cover the aforementioned threats. In return for these teammates, Chandelure can take down opposing Grass-types like Celebi, Rillaboom, and Venusaur for the Electric-type teammates, and can take down opposing Fire-types like Rotom-H and Cinderace. Chandelure also has a big weakness to common Dark-types in the metagame like Incineroar, Hydreigon, Tyranitar, and Bisharp. Because of this, Fighting-types that can take down these threats like Kommo-o, Keldeo, and Conkeldurr make for good teammates. In return, Chandelure can take down Psychic-types like Celebi and Gardevoir for these teammates.

Chandelure puts itself out there in the metagame with the most powerful Special Attack stat along with great coverage and a niche Ghost- / Fire-typing. Shadow Ball is Chandelure's go-to Ghost-type STAB move, covering Psychic- and Ghost-types like Gardevoir and Galarian Corsola super effectively, while also hitting Pokemon like Rotom-H and Cinderace for neutral damage. Overheat covers common Grass-, Bug-, and Steel-types like Rillaboom, Golisopod, Jirachi its banned now, and Corviknight. Trick can shut down walls like Aromatisse trick can be encored and besides Overheat just kills it, mention stuff like Foul Play Mandibuzz and Stall Rotom-Heat and Type: Null. Energy Ball covers miscellaneous threats like non-Assault Vest Rhyperior, Choice Scarf Rotom-W (albeit a roll) if it's not somewhat reliable don't mention it, and Gastrodon. The HP and Defense allow Chandelure to take an Earthquake from max Attack Choice Scarf Haxorus and OHKO back with Shadow Ball thanks to the Special Attack investments, and the HP and Special Defense lets Chandelure take two hits from Choice Scarf Rotom-H's Thunderbolt, and 2HKO back with Shadow Ball. are the rest of the EVs just dumped into SpA? do you beat something specific or can you EV for something in speed too? mention that
