Analysis

Chandelure is a powerful attacker that has the ability to act in a double-role. While it's not as amazing as it once was, it's still very much a worthwhile investment if you need help with Fire and/or Ghost damage output.

Offense

Best

Best

Fire Spin pairs with Overheat to maximize Shadow Chandelure's performance as a Fire Type attacker and allow it to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with many of the game's top attackers within the type.
Hex pairs with Shadow Ball to make Chandelure an outstanding Ghost Type attacker, standing as one of the best.
Incinerate is notoriously slow and weaker than Fire Spin in practice generally speaking
Flame Charge is a poor tool for an offensive Chandelure
Energy Ball has no use on Chandelure, TM this.
Poltergeist* is an underwhelming option for Ghost Type damage. Stick with Shadow Ball.

Defense

Best

Incinerate

Shadow Ball

Energy Ball

Incinerate hits hardest on defense and is the superior to Hex and Fire Spin.
Shadow Ball has the earliest damage window and also provides mostly neutral coverage.
Flame Charge is great for its low cost, allowing it to come out very often
Energy Ball is the easiest to dodge and deals the least amount of damage, but also has counter-coverage against Water and Rock Types
Overheat might not be used before Shadow Chandelure faints as a 1-bar move.
Poltergeist* has the same issue as Overheat while simultaneously being out-performed by Shadow Ball. Skip this move.

PvP

Best

Incinerate

Shadow Ball

Flame Charge

Incinerate is a powerful move in pvp, scoring large amounts of damage in short order. It pairs well with Flame Charge, which is a relatively spammable move, and Shadow Ball for hard-hitting damage.

Chandelure is pretty heavily skewed towards Attack, meaning its Stat Total tends to be pretty low. Combine this with a relatively slow moveset, and Chandelure drops pretty fast.
