Enamorus is a potent sweeper, capable of beating common defensive staples in Skarmory, Mega Sableye, and Iron Treads. Its expansive coverage in Earth Power and Mystical Fire allows it to hit every Steel-type in the tier, such as Celesteela, Skarmory, Aegislash, and Scizor, for super effective damage, securing either an OHKO or a 2HKO on them with a Calm Mind boost. It also allows Enamorus to work around other Fairy-resistant foes such as Skeledirge, Galarian Slowking, and Iron Moth as well as offensive checks in Hisuian Arcanine and Victini, while its Speed tier allows it to outspeed and OHKO Nihilego. Taunt is an option to potentially beat and deny recovery from status users like Clefable, Hippowdon, and Chansey that try to slow down or stall Enamorus. These traits make it an excellent partner for Aegislash, with SubToxic variants appreciating the ability to threaten or KO Skeledirge and Steel-types like Iron Treads, while Swords Dance variants enjoy its ability to threaten Buzzwole, Iron Hands, and Whirlwind Skarmory. Similarly, Iron Moth enjoys many of its checks being removed, particularly Mega Tyranitar and Latias. However, Enamorus's frailty and lack of immediate power makes it difficult for it to break past checks such as Galarian Slowking and Celesteela, which threaten to OHKO it with Sludge Bomb and Heavy Slam, respectively, and are only 2HKOed after a Calm Mind boost. Similarly, Chansey can use Toxic and Seismic Toss to take advantage of Enamorus's lack of longevity. This means it appreciates partners such as Tyranitar and Bisharp, which are capable of Pursuit trapping Galarian Slowking and Chansey, as well as Cinderace, which can break past Celesteela as well as provide pivoting to bring Enamorus in safely. Its Speed tier also means it is pressured by faster threats such as Iron Moth and Latios. This means it enjoys speed control from partners such as Cinderace and Meowscarada, which are able to outspeed its offensive checks. To compensate for its relative frailty, it also enjoys slow pivots to bring it in safely, such as Slowbro, Galarian Slowking, and Scizor, and in return it provides an offensive check to the Dark-types they are threatened by, such as Mega Tyranitar, Meowscarada, and Hydreigon.

Choice Specs allows Enamorus to be more immediately fearsome against bulky teams, now threatening 2HKOs on most Fairy-resistant foes without the need for a turn of setup. In addition to Earth Power and Mystical Fire, Superpower allows it to threaten a 3HKO on Chansey. This also allows Enamorus to potentially snowball through weakened teams once faster foes like Meowscarada and Cinderace have been removed. Alternatively, Psychic hits Poison-types that aren't weak to Earth Power, such as Mega Venusaur and Amoonguss. In addition to Pursuit trappers like Mega Tyranitar, speed control from the likes of Cinderace, and slow pivots like Slowbro, Choice Specs Enamorus functions as an excellent partner to special sweepers such as Iron Moth, Keldeo, Blacephalon, and Serperior due to its ability to remove Galarian Slowking without competing for the same team slot. These options can also be used to remove Steel- and Poison-types to allow Enamorus to use its powerful Moonblast more freely. As Enamorus is weak to Stealth Rock, it appreciates being partnered with strong entry hazard removal options, such as Rapid Spin Iron Treads, Defog Salamence, Defog Tapu Fini, and Court Change Cinderace, which allow it to more easily work around opposing entry hazard setters such as Hippowdon and suicide leads like Excadrill. Due to its Choice Specs, however, Enamorus becomes prediction-reliant against teams that stack multiple Fairy-resistant foes, so Stealth Rock and Knock Off support from Clefable, Tyranitar, and Scizor allows it to more effectively break down its checks over the course of a game.
