Answer 1

Set Up Sweeper

Enamorus-Therian (F) @ Leftovers
Ability: Overcoat
Tera Type: Water / Steel
EVs: 252 HP / 108 Def / 148 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Iron Defense
- Calm Mind
- Draining Kiss
- Mystical Fire

This Enamorus-Therian set is an alternative option to other Fairy set up sweepers like Hatterene, having slightly better bulk. Leftovers provides passive recovery. Overcoat allows it to guard against sand damage, as well as Sleep Powders from Hisuian Lilligant and most importantly Spore from Amoonguss. A tera type of Water or Steel provides a much better defensive typing allowing Enamorus to switch into Stealth Rock more reliably. Iron Defense and Calm Mind both allow Enamorus to set up. Draining Kiss is used for damage and as reliable recovery. Mystical Fire hits Steel and Grass types super effectively and lowers their offensive capability.

Why those specific EVs?

---

to get a more even EV spread of defensive stats instead of fully leaning toward special defense (and the special defense stat hits exactly 300 with the spread, which is pretty cool!)

Answer 2

Enamorus @ Pixie Plate/Expert Belt
Ability: Contrary
Tera: Stellar
EVs: 252 Sp. Atk/252 Spd/4 HP
Timid(With Mystical Fire)/Modest (With Neutralizing gas + Agility) Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Agility/Mystical Fire
- Draining Kiss
- Tera Blast
- Earth Power

If you run agility, make sure to have a Neutralizing Gas mon in order to actually get the speed buff and sweep. This set takes advantage of the "Stellar" tera type in the indigo disk, and allows you to deal MASSIVE damage. When you tera into the Stellar type, tera blast would NORMALLY give you -1 Sp. Atk and Atk. But contrary can reverse this, so you get a +1 Sp. Atk and Atk instead. Agility is the first sentence of this description, so no need to explain that. Mystical Fire if you don't want to run neutralizing gas, or you want ice coverage. Remember, stellar tera type doesn't help you defensively, so you still have to cover all your weaknesses. Draining Kiss does well with pixie plate, and boosts the damage output. Tera blast to be super effective on all tera Pokemon you tera and get a buff, and earth power takes care of 4/5 weaknesses.

Answer 3

Stellar Cheese

Gen 9 OU
Cheese (Enamorus) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Contrary
Tera Type: Stellar
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Tera Blast
- Superpower
- Earth Power
- Moonblast

This thing is nuts with Stellar. Scarf Enamorus is an extremely effective revenge-killer, but mix that with Stellar Tera Blast and Contrary and this beast quickly can snowball. You weaken an opponent down, get KOed, then send this in to clean up, and sweep with Tera Blast boosts. Even without Stellar there still is the Superpower Sweep and a powerful Moonblast STAB. Earth Power is coverage. The biggest threat to this is Raging Bolt’s Thunderclap, but still this easily gets out of control.

Answer 4

Contrary Sweeper

Enamorus @ Life Orb
Ability: Contrary
Tera Type: Flying
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Superpower
- Play Rough
- Tera Blast
- Draining Kiss / Earth Power

This set allows Enamorus to hit very hard. Superpower gives a +1 Attack and Defense boost. Play Rough is strong STAB. Tera Blast when aided by the Flying Tera Type allows for very strong Flying STAB. Draining Kiss allows you to heal off some Life Orb damage, while Earth Power is primarily used to hit Gholdengo. You could alternatively run Assault Vest with a Hasty Nature if you want to be a more bulky attacker with some longevity.

Answer 5

Gen 9 Monotype Mixed Attacker (Flying)

Enamorus (F) @ Heavy-Duty Boots / Expert Belt
Ability: Contrary
Tera Type: Fairy
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Superpower
- Earth Power / Taunt
- Moonblast
- Grass Knot / Zen Headbutt

A mixed offensive set Enamorus can use on Flying teams in Gen 9 Monotype. Superpower is a nice coverage move that is useful against Pokemon such as Kingambit and Air Balloon Heatran. Superpower also boost Enamorus' Attack and Defense stats thanks to Contrary. Earth Power is used to hit Pokemon such as Toxapex, Iron Moth, Non Air Balloon Heatran, and Non Air Balloon Gholdengo super effectively. Taunt is an option to shut down defensive Pokemon. Moonblast is used for a powerful Fairy STAB. Grass Knot lets Enamorus OHKO Quagsire and Specially Defensive Dondozo. Zen Headbutt can be used as an option to hit Poison-types such as Toxapex, Amoonguss, and Clodsire. Heavy-Duty Boots is used to prevent Enamorus from being chipped by Stealth Rock, while Expert Belt is an option to give Enamorus' attacks more power when they are super effective against opposing Pokemon.

Answer 6

Enamorus @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Contrary
Tera Type: Stellar
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Tera Blast
- Superpower
- Moonblast
- Mystical Fire / Earth Power

Choice scarf with Hasty Nature lets you outspeed a lot of Pokemon. You can Tera Stellar Tera Blast that gets more powerful every time you use it due to Contrary. Superpower boosts Attack and Defense which can eventually tear through everything except Ghost types. Moonblast is the obvious special Fairy STAB. Mystical Fire and Earth Power for coverage. This can clean up the late game easily.
