Landorus-T is incredibly versatile. It can function as an effective pivot thanks to its access to Intimidate and U-turn, whether that be an offensive pivot that takes advantage of its sky-high Attack stat or a bulky one that makes use of its access to Stealth Rock and useful set of resistances, checking Pokemon like Mega Pinsir and Mega Lopunny. It can also function as a potent wallbreaker thanks to its access to Swords Dance and its dangerous STAB combination in conjunction with Z-Moves. However, its weaknesses to Ice and Water often cause issues given that they are both very common types on offensive and defensive Pokemon alike such as Weavile, Ash-Greninja, and Toxapex, and its lack of recovery options hurts its ability to check certain Pokemon repeatedly throughout the match. Its average Speed stat also leaves it below the important base 95 benchmark, leaving it vulnerable to dangerous Pokemon that sit on or above it such as Tapu Lele, Kyurem-B, Volcarona, and Mega Medicham.
