[SET COMMENTS]
Moves
========
- Flare Blitz is best STAB Attack on a physical Fire-type set
- Head Smash is incredibly powerful coverage that notably hits Fire-types super effectively and granting near-perfect neutral coverage
- Wild Charge provides super effective coverage against Water-types
- Superpower allows Tepig to hit Rock-types super effectively, specifically netting coverage on dual Rock / Ground type Pokemon.
Set Details
========
- Choice Scarf boosts Speed, is the best item in the meta, yadda yadda
- Max Attack / Max Speed for good Scarfing
- Blaze over Thick Fat for the potential Attack boost
- Adamant for great rolls and cause it already gets 14 Speed
Usage Tips
========
- A great revenge killer, pretty frail so don't be switching it in on anything too tough
- Tepig will kill itself pretty fast via recoil, and hazards aggravate this, so remove them
- Chinchou is tough for this little nerd, especially ScarfChou
- Tepig's Choice Scarf could surprise fast, frail mons like Diglett and remove then when your opponent expects the opposite
Team Options
========
- Entry hazard removal is essential to Tepig's success. A hazard remover with good type synergy, such as Staryu, would make a great partner

Other Options
=============
