Competitive Analysis

Lunar Dance is Cresselia's sacrificial move that knocks it out and will fully heal the Pokemon taking its place as well as remove any status conditions if it is affected by any and restore PP of its moves.

Cresselia can use this move at low HP and the next Pokemon will still receive full recovery.

This is an effective way of knocking out Cresselia yourself instead of letting it faint from an attack by your opponent, with the benefit of fully healing a Pokemon waiting in your team.
