[SET COMMENTS]
* With good bulk, a solid defensive typing, and access to Spore, Clear Smog, and Regenerator, Amoonguss is a fantastic support and disruptor option.
* Clear Smog prevents Amoonguss from getting set up on unless the opponent is Steel-type or has a Substitute up.
* Hex both punishes foes put to sleep by Spore and hits Air Balloon Gholdengo.
* Stomping Tantrum gets around Assault Vest Gholdengo.
Items
========
* **Black Sludge**: Black Sludge gives Amoonguss longevity outside of Synthesis and Regenerator; however, if Amoonguss Terastallizes into a type that isn't Poison, it will take damage instead.
* **Sitrus Berry**: Sitrus Berry is an alternative form of recovery, and it can be used regardless of Amoonguss's Tera type.
* **Rocky Helmet**: Rocky Helmet punishes contact moves with residual damage, potentially breaking Focus Sash in the process.
Tera Types
========
* **Dark-type**: While Amoonguss doesn't Terastallize often, Dark removes its weakness to Psychic-type attacks and makes Foul Play stronger, at the cost of gaining new weaknesses.
* **Poison-type**: Poison removes Grass-type weaknesses, but makes Amoonguss weak to Ground-type attacks.
* **Steel-type**: While it makes Amoonguss weak to Ground- and Fighting-type attacks, it also grants Amoonguss with a plethora of resistances, and it can be a tough Pokemon to break once foes like Breloom are KOed.
