Guide
The funny thing I've discovered recently with Espeon is that yes, you can actually solo a lane on your own if you get ditched *if* you follow general goalkeeping rules.
So here they are.
1. don't let yourself off the goal e v e r until you have assistance, you are the china in a bull shop and can get two-shot by most pokemon if you ever leave a goal, HOWEVER you can still snipe most wild pokemon with ease with 2 moves, so keep an eye on the minimap and look at enemy positions if you want Altaria. 2. make sure you use berries sparingly so you don't leave goal undefended for too long or waste berries on unneeded hp, and 3. get all the wild pokemon you can if you can risk doing so. After your barrage of damage your lane will fear you and will most likely get the jungler in the lane when second altaria and objective shows up. Don't worry about the jungler himself, you can still snipe and you're good at tricking junglers into thinking you're squishy bait, be aware of repositioning moves though and plan accordingly.
When it comes to objectives, don't underestimate your sniping potential. You do a lot of damage to bosses, so a well timed psyshock will steal regileki or any other objective from right under their noses and will allow you to use Regileki as a second teammate. You should have gotten level 8 by the time you get to this stage so dont be afraid to pop your unite and force Regileki into the goal if possible. By now your teammates should realise that you're actually a good teammate and not a dumb 3 year old so they should help for the rest of the game, but if not repeat above till rayquaza and snipe Rayquaza from under their noses.
If you can afford to lose (EX: Masters), Teach whoever's abandoned you the hard way by ditching your selected lane and stealing oppisite jungle or just going in the lane where the most people are until they ditch. Honestly I get a lot of toxicity from this so if you want to laugh at idiots and have a bit of fun at the cost of your rank do that.
Works Well With
Let's be honest, you're probably not going to get a defender anytime soon, but if you do, this specific pokemon and Snorlax are the holy grace of your game and garentee a win if they aren't just filling roles.
If you're in a full attacker comp, pray you have a Mystical Fire/Draining Kiss Sylve as she will be your defender (If they aren't dumb) and will save your life.
Zera and Espe are the gods of fast and heavy damage but low hp and work wonderously well together and with both of their movesets negating their weaknesses.
