Corphish has been dominant in the metagame thanks to its great Attack stat, ability, and its great typing that allow it to put a dent into teams. It can also be a very dangerous and fearsome sweeper after using Swords Dance, as there are not many Pokemon that can switch into its attacks. Corphish can OHKO bulky Pokemon such as Spritzee with a boosted Crabhammer and Choice Scarf Galarian Farfetch'd with a boosted Aqua Jet. It can also use Knock Off to help soften its usual switch-ins like Mareanie and Ferroseed. If Corphish is running Superpower, it can simply take care of Ferroseed, a common check. However, Corphish struggles with Grass-types such as Oddish, so Ponyta and Vullaby make great partners for it. Corphish also struggles with Croagunk due to its ability Dry Skin, so Mudbray is a good partner to take care of it and can also set Stealth Rock to make Corphish have an easier time sweeping.
