Strategy Overview
Umbreon's high special bulk and defensive typing make it a great check for common special threats such as Xurkitree, Chandelure, and Nidoqueen. Wish and Heal Bell enable it to stay healthy over the course of the battle and support its teammates. Foul Play allows Umbreon to better deal with various threats such as Golurk, Flygon, and Nasty Plot Celebi, while its ability Synchronize makes it difficult for Pokemon such as Raikou, Gastrodon, and Milotic to weaken it with status moves. However, Umbreon's weaknesses to Fighting and Fairy leave it vulnerable to common threats such as Lucario, Heracross, and Gardevoir. In addition, its passive nature, increased by its two-turn recovery, makes it easy for many Pokemon such as Reuniclus, Togekiss, and the aforementioned Lucario to take advantage of it.
