Caly-S is just meant to deal as much damage as possible and punish defensive play with Encore. Originally used Focus Sash, but figured Chien-Pao needed it more. Tera-Normal wins the mirror match.

Zama’s my favourite restricted personally. The bulk feels really good and Wide Guard offers lots of utility. Debated Heavy Slam over Behemoth Bash, but figured I preferred the more consistent option. Tera-Dragon reverses Fire type matchup and offers resists to common types. EV’d to survive +2 Calyrex-Shadow max SpA Astral Barrage w/ spread damage reduction but with enough defence to OHKO most Careful Incin.

Indeedee is a strange pick off Psyspam, but I struggled with Trick Room teams and E-Force Calyrex is a crazy offensive threat. Imprison + Trick Room offers the former value, and Safety Goggles ruins Brute Bonnet and Amoonguss’ days. Tera-Dark to avoid Prankster Taunts and resist Dark moves. IIRC I EV’d for +4 Calyrex-Shadow Psychic and Calyrex-Ice Glacial Lance.

Tornadus is here to counter Koraidon and patch up Zamazenta’s lack of speed investment. Covert Cloak blocks Fake Out and Tera-Dark blocks Prankster Taunt + resists Astral Barrage. Can’t remember what I EV’d for on this one.

Urshifu-R is meant to take advantage of rain. Mystic Water and Tera-Water make Surging Strikes hit hard and even Aqua Jet be fairly strong in some scenarios. Rarely bringing this one.

Chien-Pao boosts Zamazenta and Urshifu, annihilates other Calyrex and stays alive via Sash. I personally don’t like Chien-Pao since it’s hard to position, but it is very effective when in position. Tera-Ghost to dodge Fake Out and Fighting moves.

TL;DR - Indeedee-Calyrex feels great and Zama-Torn does too. Chien-Pao works sometimes, but feels awkward due to comfort reasons. Urshifu feels strangely situational.
