Guide
Espeon is a great Attacker that can quickly burst through any Pokémon’s HP with it’s powerful moves.
Espeon is decently strong as an Eevee but it really starts to shine once it evolves and gets Psyshock! Use Espeon’s moves strategically so you can burst down multiple opponents’ HP at the same time!
This build is all about quickly dealing a lot of damage to your enemies, allowing either you or an ally to finish them off quickly. Try not to be too reckless as you don’t have any moves that give Espeon any extra mobility and Espeon is pretty frail. Be strategic with your moves and try to find the perfect spot to aim and deal the best possible damage, with Psyshock you can burst down the HP of a group of Pokémon if you aim properly, with Psybeam always aim for opponents that are grouped together and use Psybeam on the opponent with the most HP (typically Defenders or Supporters) because the extra beams fired at nearby opponents deal extra damage equal to 6% of the max HP of the first enemy hit by the beam. Blissey has the most HP in the game so always aim for Blissey when you see her in a group! Psychic Solare stops opponents in their tracks which allows allies to get some extra hits on them and also deals some decent damage, use Psychic Solare as an emergency getaway move or a move to help you burst down your target’s HP!

Energy Amplifier:

Other Possible Battle Items:
X Speed:
X Speed gives a similar effect to the Eject Button and can help you catch up to your targets!

Telekinesis/Slowbeam locks opponents in place, allowing you to deal more damage to them easily!
Block/Heavy Slam can stun opponents which helps you land more hits on them!
