Gothitelle is a wallbreaker that enables its teammates by trapping and removing various walls. Thunderbolt targets Corviknight, Alomomola, Toxapex, and Pelipper, while Grass Knot OHKOes Dondozo, Hippowdon, and defensive Great Tusk, 2HKOes Garganacl, and 2HKOes Ting-Lu and Iron Treads with Tera Grass. Psyshock is chosen over Psychic to more effectively remove Blissey and Clodsire. Trick is a decent midground option that cripples Pokemon Gothitelle might not otherwise beat, like Tera Steel Ting-Lu and Corviknight, but it comes at the cost of greatly reducing Gothitelle's wallbreaking potential, so it should generally be used sparingly. Tera Fairy is used to trap Miraidon, Walking Wake, and Koraidon locked into their Dragon-type STAB moves, and it lets Gothitelle revenge kill weakened Chi-Yu and Chien-Pao locked into a Dark-type STAB move. Alternatively, Tera Grass allows it to 2HKO Ting-Lu and Iron Treads while weakening strong attacks from Great Tusk, Ting-Lu, and Iron Treads. Gothitelle fits best on balance teams, where it can make powerful teammates like Miraidon, Koraidon, Iron Bundle, and Chien-Pao into wincons, since it removes many of their common checks. Gothitelle is frail and dislikes hard switching into the walls it seeks to remove, so it greatly appreciates pivots such as Flip Turn Iron Bundle and U-turn users such as Miraidon, Koraidon, and Corviknight. After Gothitelle has picked up a KO, many offensive Pokemon force it out, so standard defensive backbones consisting of Pokemon like Toxapex, Iron Treads, Great Tusk, Clodsire, and Skeledirge are vital.
