He trades chandelure's aoe, better defensive typing and immunity to fake out with *a lot* more power, a greater spectrum of support and coverage moves (including Wide Guard, leaf blade for dondozo etc), synergy with psychic terrain, and better offensive coverage versus common meta threats (iron hands, both ursalunas and a few others), while also being pretty versatile with tera choices.
