Strategy Overview
Cresselia possesses outstanding bulk and an amazing movepool, making it a top-tier threat in Doubles with the ability to take hits well and run many different sets. Cresselia is an effective fit on various types of teams, providing support or offensive presence with moves such as Trick Room, Psyshock, and even Helping Hand. However, it is prone to becoming setup bait, especially for threatening sweepers carrying Substitute. Furthermore, Knock Off is a commonplace move that is very threatening to Cresselia due to the fact that it takes a significant amount of damage from the attack and loses its precious item.
