Thanks to Assault Vest, Reuniclus can switch in on various special attackers such as Clefable and more notably Life Orb Eternatus, an incrediblely dangerous attacker, and hit them back with Psychic. Regenerator allows Reuniclus to stay healthy throughout the battle to check the aforementioned Pokemon and absorb weaker attacks such as Volt Switch from Rotom-W as well. Focus Blast hits Tyranitar on the switch, preventing it to come freely on Reuniclus. Shadow Ball is essential to hit other Psychic-types such as Hatterene and more notably Gothitelle, while Thunder pressures Corviknight and has a nice chance to paralyze the opposing foe. The given spread allows Reuniclus to avoid the 2HKO from Life Orb Eternatus's Dynamax Cannon and the 2HKO from Choice Specs Gothitelle's Shadow Ball, as well as maximize Reuniclus's offensive presence.

Reuniclus is easily overpowered by strong physical attackers like Zacian-C, Galarian Darmanitan, and Excadrill. Zacian-C is especially notable, with its typing letting switch into Reuniclus with ease. Teammates such as Quagsire, Rotom-H, and Corviknight help against these attackers. Quagsire has Unaware to ignore Zacian-C's Attack boosts, while Rotom-H and Corviknight can provide momentum to the team thanks to Volt Switch and U-turn. Offensive partners like Dracovish and Eternatus can also work thanks to their pressure that they put on common defensive cores that Reuniclus struggle against. Reuniclus is also helpful on common sun teams thanks to it ability to check Eternatus, as checks to Eternatus are rare for these teams. On a more general note, all of the aforementioned teammates appreciate Reuniclus acting as a switch-in for Eternatus for them.

Did :')
 
id split this into 2 where it starts talking about being overpowered by physical attackers.
Zacian-C is especially notable with it typing letting switch in Reuniclus with ease, and freely use Sword Dance or Substitute.
neither of these moves are necessarily guaranteed sights, id be careful saying this as if its a given so ideally remove the bold.
Quagsire has Unaware to ignore Sword Dance boost of Zacian-C
similar thing here, you could just say boosts since it has one from its ability anyway.

implement for QC 2/2
