Xerneas @ Power Herb
Ability: Fairy Aura
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpA
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Geomancy
- Moonblast
- Thunder
- Substitute

Xerneas graces Ubers as one of its strongest wincons after the departure of a great check in Zacian-C. Geomancy in conjunction with Power Herb and Fairy Aura bolsters Xerneas's offensive prowess to unbearable levels within one turn, allowing it to OHKO the majority of neutral targets and even 2HKO physically defensive Necrozma-DM with Moonblast. Thunder complements Moonblast nicely, pressuring Ho-Oh, bulky Kyogre, and Lugia. Substitute wraps up the set, letting Xerneas use Ferrothorn lacking STAB moves as setup bait and avoid status effects from Eternatus and Blissey. The given EV spread maximizes its damage output and overall bulk, allowing Xerneas to comfortably survive bulky Necrozma-DM's Sunsteel Strike and serve as a backup check to Dragon Dance Zygarde-C. Xerneas pairs well with Zacian, as they pressure Necrozma-DM and Ho-Oh for each other, with Zacian pressuring Blissey and Ferrothorn as well. Partners that can take advantage of Necrozma-DM, such as Calyrex-S and Kyogre, make for good options as well. Lastly, Gothitelle is a potent teammate capable of paving the path for Xerneas by outright trapping and removing both Necrozma-DM and Blissey.

Xerneas graces Ubers as one of its strongest wincons after the departure of a one of its greatest checks in Zacian-C. Geomancy in conjunction with Power Herb and Fairy Aura bolsters Xerneas's offensive prowess to unbearable levels within one turn, allowing it to OHKO the majority of neutral targets and 2HKO even physically defensive Necrozma-DM with Moonblast. Thunder complements Moonblast nicely, picking off a chipped Ho-Oh at +2, while also KOing Defensive Kyogre and hitting Lugia hard. Substitute wraps up the set, letting Xerneas use Ferrothorn lacking STAB moves as setup bait and avoid status effects from Eternatus and Blissey. The given EV spread maximizes damage output and overall bulk, notably allowing Xerneas to survive bulky Necrozma-DM's Sunsteel Strike after Stealth Rock damage, while enabling Xerneas to serve as an effective backup check to Dragon Dance Zygarde. Xerneas pairs well with Zacian, as they pressure Necrozma-DM and Ho-Oh for each other, with Zacian pressuring Blissey and Ferrothorn as well.
