Alongside Melmetal, Eevee-S is the other newly introduced Pokemon in the Let's Go games to have made a lasting mark in the OU environment. The only cleric in the tier due to Sparkly Swirl, Eevee-S has high value on any team needing to cure itself of annoying status conditions. Eevee-S is especially known to pair well with Rest users such as Alolan Muk and Melmetal due to its ability to grant them semi-reliable recovery without needing to endure sleep. However, Eevee-S also is a great status spreader in LGPE OU thanks to its other signature moves, with Sizzly Slide and Buzzy Buzz enabling it to threaten potential switch-ins such as Mega Gengar, Melmetal, and Mega Aerodactyl and Sappy Seed increasing its sustainability while also potentially enabling it to support its teammates. Its signature moves also offer it great coverage, targeting the likes of Rhydon and Melmetal for significant damage. Pair Eevee-S with defensive pivots such as Alolan Muk and Melmetal in order to prevent it from being revenge killed by the likes of Mega Alakazam and Mega Beedrill. Pivots such as Mew and Zapdos can also help Eevee-S come in more often, alleviating its vulnerability to strong neutral hits.
