Analysis
Enamorus is a Pokemon that sits in a... rather interesting position. It's basically a better Shadow Gardevoir in most situations, especially since it has a Flying sub-typing instead of Psychic, allowing it to have better resistances against Dark Types while keeping the 2x Fighting Type resistance. However, Fairy Type is still a bit sub-par overall, and Enamorus prefers going Fairy Wind/Fly, as Fly is a great move with a lot of power.
The problem there? If you're playing against something that's weak to Flying, then Enamorus is directly competing with a few of the best types in the game.
In short; Enamorus is between a rock and a hard place. Either compete in a meta that's under-powered, or compete in a meta where the competition is way above its head. Honestly, its only major hope for the future is that it eventually gets its Signature Move, Springtide Storm. If this move follows the same stat-line as the Signature Moves for the other Forces of Nature (and there's no reason to think that it won't as the others are all re-skins of one another), then it's got some real potential in the future.
Offense
- Fairy Wind is the only Fast Move really worth considering on offense, as Astonish and Zen Headbutt do it no good.
- Enamorus has two main Charged Moves that it can utilize:
- Dazzling Gleam gives Enamorus a good Fairy Type moveset, allowing it to act as a strong Fairy Type moveset.
- Fly is actually stronger than Dazzling Gleam and has great synergy with Fairy Wind against Fighting Types or dual-type Pokemon with a Fairy/Flying Type weakness
- Grass Knot is an easy skip.
Fairy Wind is the only viable Fast Attack for Enamorus thanks to its excellent energy generation. Astonish is a decent move and offers some coverage, but its energy generation isn't particularly great. Zen Headbutt is horrendous.
Fly is Enamorus's best and cheapest Charged Attack, benefiting from STAB and possessing high damage for its cost. Dazzling Gleam is extremely expensive and doesn't particularly synergize with Enamorus's poor bulk, but it ensures that Enamorus can actually threaten Dragon-type Pokemon. Grass Knot can be used instead for alternative coverage, hitting Rock-, Water-, and Ground-type Pokemon super effectively.
As Enamorus is currently a raid-exclusive Pokemon, it cannot be obtained below Level 20. Unfortunately, a Level 20 Enamorus cannot go below 1500 CP.
