>>45674550it depends, friend guard does help since there tend to be spread moves in vgc like dazzling gleam or heat wave, but one knock off and clefairy has lost a chunk of bulk (and there are a lot of rillabooms in this finals bracket). clefable can run the steel weakness berry to take a max steelspike, which is one max move deflected and 1 turn of dynamax stalled
they both have advantages or disadvantages, and in the end you may be right, since clefable is only on one team out of sixteen
