What it does

Holder's use of Aurora Veil, Light Screen, or Reflect lasts 8 turns instead of 5.

Who holds it

23 of the 277 Pokémon measured on the Regulation M-B ladder hold Light Clay. The one that matters most is Sylveon, which is on 18.4% of teams and holds it on 0.1% of its sets. The full list is above, ordered by how much of the format each one is.

How concentrated it is

Across the ladder, Light Clay accounts for an expected 0.07 of the six slots on an average team, which makes it the 13th most-brought of the 26 items this format runs. 0% of that comes from Sylveon alone, so it is spread across the field rather than propped up by one Pokémon. Its holders are mostly Fairy (5), Ice (5) and Psychic (5).

Where these numbers come from

Usage is Smogon's published statistics for the Regulation M-B VGC ladder, and the description is the one shipped in the Pokémon Showdown data set. Both are regenerated on every build rather than written by hand, so this page follows the format instead of trailing it. Take any of it to the team builder or the damage calculator.

Where this goes next

Build

Open the builder with Sylveon seated — Sylveon brings Light Clay to more teams than any of the other 22 Pokémon that hold it.
