Strategy Overview
- Tapu Fini is one of the premier Water-types in the format that can fit comfortably on most teams.
- Misty Terrain is a godsend, as it prevents Tapu Fini and its partners from being inflicted by status effects. It also activates the Special Defense boost from Misty Seed instantly.
- Tapu Fini possesses impressive 70 / 115 / 130 bulk, which can allow it to sponge off hits relatively well.
- Without a Calm Mind or Choice Specs boost, Tapu Fini's offensive capabilities are rather mediocre.
- Water / Fairy is a pretty significant defensive and offensive typing, as it comes with a ton of useful resistances and allows Tapu Fini to hit a good chunk of the format for super effective or neutral damage.
- Tapu Fini struggles against the other island guardians such as Tapu Koko and Tapu Bulu, which can not only remove its Misty Terrain, but also smack it pretty hard with their STAB moves.
