Analysis
Nasty Plot Chi-Yu can threaten to KO foes it couldn't otherwise, such as Ting-Lu and Blissey. Overheat hits extremely hard and threatens to OHKO Ting-Lu at +2. Flamethrower is valuable for its perfect accuracy. A Modest nature alongside Life Orb lets Chi-Yu OHKO Ting-Lu at +2. Heavy-Duty Boots can be used instead to give Chi-Yu more opportunities to switch in, but the loss of power is notable. Chi-Yu fits best on offensive teams with Pokemon such as Cyclizar and Grimmsnarl that can facilitate its setup. Sticky Web support from Masquerain is also useful, as it lets Chi-Yu outrun Pokemon like Koraidon and Miraidon and KO them at +2. Chi-Yu's best partner is Koraidon, since it sets up sun, can safely bring Chi-Yu into play with U-turn, and threatens Blissey. Other good partners are special attackers that benefit from special walls being neutered by Chi-Yu, such as Miraidon, Flutter Mane, and Gholdengo. Great Tusk is also greatly appreciated, as it can remove Stealth Rock and threatens Blissey and Ting-Lu for Chi-Yu. Chi-Yu can deal with Corviknight and Dondozo in return.
