Disabler Build Explantion

Disabler Build Damage Test

Since the build is centered on disabling opponents, equipping items that will maximize Grass Knot or Magical Leaf's damage is the ideal item combination. Exp. Share is a core item for the build, leaving only two (2) items for consideration.

Out of all the item combinations, Wise Glasses and Slick Spoon will be the best for the build. Setting aside the bonus damage from Choice Specs, this item combination actually deals the highest damage. Moreover, the bonus damage from Choice Specs isn't worth it since none of Comfey's damage moves are used for bursting down targets.

Comfey Best Items & Moveset

Best Held Items

Item	Explanation
Exp. Share	Gives passive EXP. to ensure Comfey and its ally catches up in levels. It also gives a decent movement speed boost for some mobility.
Sp. Atk. Specs	Gives a massive Sp. Atk. boost when fully stacked. The item can be stacked even if Comfey is attached to an ally.
Buddy Barrier	Provides a large HP boost and acts as a teamfight tool.
Wise Glasses	A staple Sp. Atk. booster to increase Comfey's move damage and healing.
Rescue Hood	Rescue Hood improves Floral Healing by amplifying the healing and shielding it provides, which also synergizes well with Flowery Fields Forever's increased healing effect. It also increases the Pokemon's defenses, making it more durable.

List of Held Items

Best Battle Items

Item	Explanation
Slow Smoke	Slow Smoke gives Comfey additional crowd control for both offensive and defensive purposes. Its effect works even when Comfey is attached to an ally.

List of Battle Items

Best Moveset

Move	Explanation
Magical Leaf	Magical Leaf can damage and disable enemies in a wide area. It's especially effective against isolated targets since they take maximum damage and can be disabled multiple times.
Floral Healing	Floral Healing is a low-cooldown, spammable healing move that can also shield allies when the healing exceeds their max HP. It is more aligned to Comfey's supporter nature.

Comfey's gameplay relies on attaching itself to its allies and supporting them with healing, buffs, disables, and damage. Having a moveset that can provide both offensive and defensive support for the team will make Comfey more effective in battles, which is what Floral Healing and Magical Leaf offers. However, for more crowd control, opt for Sweet Kiss and Grass Knot instead.

Use Flowery Fields Forever During Teamfights

Choose an Ally with High Offense to Support

Comfey is a Supporter that is highly dependent on its hard-hitting allies. Comfey's movesets are focused on providing heals and shielding an ally with Floral Healing and provide buffs using Sweet Kiss. It also has two damage dealing move upgrades that can either stun or slow down enemy movement.

When Comfey is attached to an ally, it cannot be targeted and the only time Comfey can take damage is if it detaches from an ally and roams around on its own.

With Exp. Share as one of its held items, Comfey can still gain exp. while providing heals to an ally with Synthesis, and use its standard attack as its only offensive move until it is able to learn Vine Whip. Once Comfey learns both moves, it now deals better damage to enemies and Wild Pokemon during early game, however it is still recommended to get its move upgrades as early as possible in order for Comfey to provide decent support to an ally.

It is recommended to support hard-hitting All-Rounder allies like Urshifu or Tsareena, or highly mobile and bursty Speedsters like Gengar and Dodrio in order to push lanes as much as possible.

Triage Stack Mechanic

Comfey's passive is Triage, and it lets Comfey gain 8 stacks of flowers. The more flowers Comfey has, the more effective its skills are. Comfey uses all of the flower stacks it has whenever it uses a skill. It is recommended to detach from an ally and hide in tall grass to regain stacks immediately, and just attach to an ally again.

It is also worth noting that Comfey does not spend any stacks when using Vine Whip, Grass Knot or Magical Leaf.

Taking Excess Aeos Energy

Once Comfey is attached to an ally that has maxed out Aeos Energy, Comfey can carry any excess Aeos Energy that its ally picks up on the way. This mechanic is great when Comfey is supporting a Speedster ally that aims to keep scoring as Comfey can also score while it is attached.

How to Detach from an Ally

Nintendo Switch	Mobile Devices
Press	Tap on the Release button.

To detach Comfey from an ally, simply press the Release button. For Nintendo Switch, it's the Down button on the D-Pad. For mobile devices, the button is located at the bottom center of the screen.

Assist Allies and Take Down Wild Pokemon to Level Up

In order to level up, Comfey can either take down Wild Pokemon by attacking it on its own with Standard Attacks, or attach to an ally using Synthesis then assist in taking them down with Vine Whip. When equipped with Exp. Share, Comfey can assist its allies and passively progress during early game and gain enough exp to reach level 6. Once Comfey can use Floral Healing or Sweet Kiss, this is the only time where it will be able to provide decent support to an ally, and help push lanes.

Decrease Enemy Movement Speed with Vine Whip

Vine Whip deals decent damage while decreasing the movement speed of the Pokemon it hits. This allows Comfey to slow down enemies and assist its allies in pushing lanes during early game. The strength of this move depends on the stacks of flowers that Comfey's passive move, Triage, provides. Always make sure to detach from an ally and hide in tall grass to regain stacks quickly, and make sure that Comfey always have 8 stacks to maximize the potential of its movesets.

Heal an Ally with Synthesis

Upon reaching level 3, Comfey should be equipped with its first movesets, Synthesis and Vine Whip. Using Synthesis requires comfey to attach itself to an ally in order to provide heals. If Comfey has 8 stacks of Triage, the healing effect will be stronger, so always make sure to detach yourself from an ally and hide in tall grass to regain stacks quickly, and just attach to an ally again afterwards.

Provide Heals and Shields by Attaching to Allies

Comfey's gameplay mostly revolves around providing buffs or heals to one ally, and it can only provide support to the ally it's attached to. However, Comfey can choose to detach itself from an ally if the ally Pokemon is being overwhelmed, and can latch onto another ally instead.

Utilize hiding in tall grass after using Sweet Kiss or Floral Healing to quickly regain flower stacks and help sustain teammates that can deal damage, making them stay in the fight much longer. Stay near your damage dealing Pokemon like your Attackers, All-Rounders, and Speedsters, and use your heals and buffs so that they'll have the advantage over the enemy Pokemon and knock 'em out!

Provide Sustain with Floral Healing

Floral Healing allows Comfey to provide sustain to an ally on the go. Detach from an ally and hide in tall grass after using this ability to regain Triage stacks and maximize Comfey's healing potential. Assess the situation, provide sustain through heals, and detach from an ally only if they are getting overwhelmed by enemies.

Provide a Damage Buff with Sweet Kiss

Assist an ally by enhancing their damage through Sweet Kiss. This move can be charged, so make sure to have 8 stacks of flowers in order to execute this ability's full potential.
Let Comfey support an ally that have high burst moves like Gengar and Gardevoir, or sturdy and hard-hitting All-Rounders like Urshifu or Tsareena.

Choose Offensive Move Upgrade Based on Playstyle

Upon reaching level 6, Comfey is able to upgrade Vine Whip to either Magical Leaf or Grass Knot. Comfey is cpable of stunning a single enemy after Magical Leaf hits it six times, while Grass Knot slows enemies down and if it hits 2 enemies, the second Pokemon it hits will get pulled to where the first Pokemon is positioned.

Both of these moves allow Comfey to attack on its own or when it is attached to an ally, so make sure to plan your moves ahead before choosing its offensive move upgrade.

Deal Ranged Damage and Stun Enemies with Magical Leaf

Magical Leaf is an offensive move that can stun an enemy after hitting it 6 times. While this move needs building up, it allows Comfey to keep attacking enemies from a ranged distance while being attached to an ally, or while roaming solo. This move is a good pick when partnered up with Sweet Kiss because of the damage buff, and allies can benefit from the shield Comfey provides upon attaching itself.

Disrupt Enemy Movement with Grass Knot

Grass Knot is another offensive move upgrade that Comfey can learn upon reaching level 6. This move allows Comfey to decrease enemy movement speed and hinder them from setting up their attacks from also a ranged distance. When partnered up with Floral Healing, Comfey becomes a balanced supporter that can both provide sustain through healing, and increase an ally's movement speed during late game.

Finally, Comfey can provide continuous support with its Unite Move, Flowery Fields Forever and protect allies by hiding them in tall grass, let them regenerate their health as long as they stay within the tall grass.

Use Flowery Fields Forever During Teamfights

Flowery Fields Forever is Comfey's Unite Move that summons tall grass in order to keep regaining 8 stacks of Triage flowers. It allows Comfey to keep using its support abilities without needing to detach itself from an ally, and allow them to stay and fight longer. Ally Pokemon within the tall grass also buff their offense by increasing their Attack and Sp. Attack. Timing this Unite Move right can save allies and turn the tides of battle in your teams favor!

Comfey Combos

Sweet Kiss Combos

1. The chart is based on our own experience playing Comfey. 2. Pokemon within each tier are unordered 3. Any Pokemon not shown here are still under investigation.

Hard Counter with Burst Damage

Since Comfey is always attached to an ally and heavily depends on them to do most of the work, Pokemon that can quickly take out Comfey's host ally are the ideal counters for it.

Best Counters

Pokemon	Explanation
Zoroark	Rating: ★★★★★ • Can quickly take out Comfey's host ally using Night Slash or Feint Attack, and Nightfall Daze.
Inteleon	Rating: ★★★★★ • Can quickly burst down Comfey's host ally with its high critical-hits from its attacks or moves.
Zacian	Rating: ★★★★★ • Can shred through Comfey's host ally using Sacred Sword or Metal Claw, attacks, and Sovereign Sword.

Even Matchups for Comfey

Pairing up with hard-hitters like Zacian and providing them with constant healing, buffs, or shields is the best way for Comfey to get the upper hand against these Pokemon.

Provide Better Support

Supporters
How to Beat

Absol Gengar	High Burst Damagers
	These Pokemon help contribute damage through pinning down enemies with combos and burst attacks. While it's still recommended to go with either an All-Rounder or Defender ally, Speedsters are a huge help when trying to dominate lanes as early as possible.

	These Pokemon are very dependable allies as they have means to buff or sustain themselves. Whether it's securing objectives or pushing lanes, Machamp and Urshifu are built to initiate clashes, stun enemies, and create openings for their teammates.
