move 1: Ice Punch
move 2: Superpower

item: Choice Scarf
ability: Hustle
nature: Adamant
evs: 36 HP / 196 Atk / 76 Def / 196 Spe
[SET COMMENTS]
With one of the highest Attack stats in LC combined with Hustle, Galarian Darumaka can make a potent Choice Scarf wallbreaker, although Hustle's inaccuracy can make it a double-edged blade. This set capitalizes on its good movepool; Ice Punch is its main STAB move, hitting Flying-types like Vullaby. Superpower OHKOes Munchlax, while Zen Headbutt 2HKOes Mareanie after Stealth Rock. U-turn can put pressure on the opponent and helps maintain momentum. This EV spread allows Galarian Darumaka to hit its maximum Attack; combined with a Choice Scarf, this allows Darumaka to put on pressure right away. Teams that struggle with defensive walls like Ferroseed and Munchlax benefit from Galarian Darumaka's presence, as its power and speed with a Choice Scarf allow it to punch through and pressure defensive teams. However, it takes a hefty amount from Timburr's Mach Punch and can't outspeed Choice Scarf Galarian Farfetch'd. Because of this, teammates that can deal with Fighting-types are useful, like Spritzee and Cutiefly. Since Darumaka is weak to Stealth Rock, it also appreciates entry hazard control from Pokemon like Vullaby and Drilbur.
