Enamorus is an excellent revenge killer on Flying teams due to its vast coverage, cleric support via Healing Wish, and amazing Speed, allowing it to outpace Hisuian Lilligant after a Victory Dance as well as Choice Specs Greninja, and Chien-Pao, easing the Dark matchup. Moonblast checks foes with Ice-type coverage moves like Pawmot, Chien-Pao, and Greninja, as well as 2HKOing Assault Vest Iron Hands. Superpower hits Steel-types like Kingambit, Hisuian Goodra, and Air Balloon Heatran, allowing Enamorus to snowball Steel teams with Contrary once Gholdengo has been removed. Alternatively, Mystical Fire hits Air Balloon Gholdengo and Corviknight. Earth Power hits Heatran, Toxapex, and Skeledirge, further improving the Steel and Poison matchups. Healing Wish gives new life to setup sweepers like Dragonite, Landorus-T, and Galarian Moltres. Iron Head is another option to hit Flutter Mane and opposing Enamorus; however, Enamorus's other coverage options hit more foes and are generally more valuable.
Corviknight checks a plethora of foes, including Flutter Mane, Chien-Pao, and Choice Scarf Greninja, as well as providing Defog support to preserve Enamorus's longevity so it can fight off Sucker Punch Kingambit; however, Landorus-T and Landorus offer an Electric-type immunity, checking threats like Regieleki, Sandy Shocks, and Magnezone. Furthermore, Bulk Up Landorus-T is a massive asset in the Poison and Steel matchups, notably setting up on Amoonguss and forcing Heatran out. Dragonite is fearsome in the Water and Flying mirror matchups and heavily appreciates Healing Wish support in return. Moltres is a great check to Chien-Pao, Kingambit, and Gholdengo due to its excellent bulk and ability to burn the former two. Articuno's exemplary bulk and neutrality to Ice-type moves is heavily appreciated, allowing it to check Greninja and Basculegion-F with Freeze-Dry to further improve the Water matchup Zapdos spreads paralysis via Static and Discharge as well as aiding in the Water matchup. In return, Enamorus removes Choice Specs Greninja to let Zapdos effectively wall most Water teams. Galarian Moltres is great in the Ghost matchup, taking on Gholdengo, Skeledirge, and Spectrier.
