[SET COMMENTS]
* This Pecharunt set searches to maximize its weak Special Defense to wall common threats such as Choice Scarf Regidrago and Choice Specs users like Kyurem and Raging Bolt while still dealing with other common threats like Ogerpon-W and Primarina.
* Malignant Chain threatens all sorts of Fairy- and Grass-type Pokemon like Serperior, Whimsicott, and Sylveon, with the chance of badly poisoning the target being a huge threat for any Pokemon.
* Curse helps Pecharunt to not get walled by the likes of Registeel, as it often struggles to deal with Steel-types on its own while also helping against Pokemon that set up Substitute like Ogerpon-W and Gouging Fire.
* Parting Shot helps it deal with special attackers like the previously mentioned Choice Scarf Regidrago and Choice Specs Kyurem while also helping it against physical attackers like Gouging Fire.
* Recover is a great tool that helps it do everything that was previously mentioned with great longevity. It also helps when it needs to activate Maranga Berry on the first turn when the opposing Pokemon deals too much damage pre-Maranga Berry boost like Choice Scarf Regidrago and Special Attack Booster Energy Raging Bolt.
* Its Speed EVs are meant to let it outspeed Modest Primarina, while the HP and Special Defense EVs help against Choice Scarf Regidrago.
* Pecharunt is usually found on teams that value its defensive capabilities, stalling potential, and Poison typing, so it's usually paired with offensive Pokemon like Gouging Fire, Ogerpon-W, and both Urshifu formes.

Its Speed EVs are meant to outspeed all Primarina
You only outspeed Modest Prims, so make sure to specify that

* Pecharunt is usually found on teams that value its great support as a Poison-type and staller, so its usually paired with offensive Pokemon like Gouging Fire, Ogerpon-W, and both Urshifu formes.
Be a little more clear why Pecharunt helps these mons

* Parting Shot helps it deal with all kinds of Pokemon like the previously mentioned Choice Scarf Regidrago and Choice Specs Kyurem, while also helping it against physical attackers like non-Earthquake Gouging Fire and Ogerpon-W.
You should be able to deal with EQ Gouging, and you really should be clicking Malignant against Wellspring to avoid Encore

Curse helps Pecharunt not get walled by the likes of Registeel or Corviknight, as it often struggles to deal with Steel-types on its own.
I'm trying to double check this information but if I recall correctly, Curse Pecha doesn't quite beat Corv reliably without Leftovers. Also make sure to mention that Curse can also help against Pokemon using Substitute.

* Malignant Chain is its strongest STAB, being able to threaten all sorts of Fairy- and Grass-type Pokémon like Serperior, Whimsicott, and Sylveon, with also having the chance of badly poisoning the target being a huge threat for any Pokemon.
* Curse helps Pecharunt to not get walled by the likes of Registeel, as it often struggles to deal with Steel-types on its own, while also helping against Pokemon that set up Substitute like opposing Pecharunt. like Entei No current Pecha set is running Substitute. I like Entei as a better example here.
* Parting Shot helps it deal with all kinds of Pokemon like the previously mentioned Choice Scarf Regidrago and Choice Specs Kyurem, while also helping it against physical attackers like Gouging Fire.
* Recover is a huge recovery tool that helps it do everything that was previously mentioned ad infinitum. It also helps when it needs to activate Maranga Berry on the first turn and when the opposing Pokemon deals too much damage at base Special Defense. Like?
* Its Speed EVs are meant to outspeed Modest Primarina, while the remaining HP and Special Defense EVs help against Choice Scarf Regidrago.
* Pecharunt is usually found on teams that value its defensive capabilities, stalling potential, and Poison typing, so its usually paired with offensive Pokemon like Gouging Fire, Ogerpon-W, and both Urshifu formes.
