Ogerpon-C is a reliable wallbreaker thanks to its high-power STAB combination, potent coverage, and solid Speed tier, outpacing threats like Thundurus-T and Cobalion. Ogerpon-C's STAB moves have high Base Power and great coverage on the tier, hitting numerous staples such as Zapdos, Excadrill, Slowking, and Scizor for massive damage. Stomping Tantrum is good coverage against Steel-types such as Cobalion, Tinkaton, and Metagross. It is also Ogerpon-C's best option against Okidogi, one of its most prevalent answers. U-turn lets Ogerpon-C develop offensive momentum, pivoting out of bad matchups such as Metagross and Okidogi while doing good damage to other foes such as Hydrapple and Zarude. Alternatively, Spiky Shield scouts revenge killing attempts from Lokix as well as Choice item users like Greninja, Keldeo, and Scizor. After Terastallization, Embody Aspect grants Ogerpon-C a Defense boost, giving it better odds to survive an attack from Pokemon like Scizor and Excadrill and hit hard in return.

Ogerpon-C fits best on offensive teams as a strong wallbreaker capable of denting various defensive Pokemon. Offensive pivots such as Tornadus-T, Latios, and Scizor are excellent teammates for it, pivoting out of Pokemon like Rhyperior, Zapdos, and Slowking to provide offensive momentum for Ogerpon-C. Additionally, these Pokemon appreciate Ogerpon-C's efficiency into their checks, namely Rhyperior, Slowking, Tyranitar, and Hisuian Arcanine, while also helping overwhelm shared checks such as Tinkaton and Metagross. Entry hazard setters such as Cobalion, Sandy Shocks, and Tinkaton appreciate Ogerpon-C's good matchups into common hazard removal Pokemon such as Excadrill and Mandibuzz, while the hazards they set make it more difficult to switch into it. In return, these Pokemon can answer Pokemon that would otherwise be able to overwhelm Ogerpon-C such as Lokix, Scizor, and Choice Scarf Hoopa-U, respectively. Ogerpon-C is extremely vulnerable to Okidogi, which resists its STAB combination and can hit hard in return with either of its STAB moves. Thus, Pokemon that can force Okidogi out such as Latios, Choice Scarf Hoopa-U, and Tornadus-T are greatly appreciated, preventing Okidogi from getting either a setup opportunity with Bulk Up or creating offensive momentum off of Ogerpon-C with other sets. Ogerpon-C's Speed, while very high, can leave it vulnerable to Pokemon like Greninja, Tornadus-T, Choice Scarf Hoopa-U, and Choice Scarf Okidogi. It is also vulnerable to Lokix's First Impression. Thus, countermeasures to these foes such as Azumarill, Tinkaton, and Zapdos are greatly appreciated.

Ogerpon-C is a reliable wallbreaker thanks to its high power STAB combo, potent coverage, and solid Speed tier outpacing threats like Thundurus-T and Cobalion. , and good typing. Ogerpon-C's STAB moves have high base power and great coverage on the tier, hitting numerous staples such as Zapdos, Excadrill, Slowking, and Scizor for massive damage. making it extremely difficult to comfortably switch into. This is further emphasized by its high Speed, outspeeding the likes of Cobalion, Zapdos, and Sandy Shocks. Ivy Cudgel is Ogerpon-C's biggest asset due to its perfect accuracy and high power. It can consistently threaten even neutral targets such as Scizor, Hydrapple, and Sinistcha. Power Whip complements Ivy Cudgel beautifully, hitting Ground- and Water-types like Excadrill, Sandy Shocks, Keldeo, and Quaquaval that could otherwise switch in and overwhelm Ogerpon-C. i cut this down since basic info of stabs Superpower does good damage to Steel-types like Tinkaton and Cobalion. U-turn lets Ogerpon-C develop offensive momentum, pivoting out of bad matchups such as Metagross and Okidogi while doing good damage to other foes such as Hydrapple and Zarude. and doing good damage to Grass-types like Hydrapple and Ogerpon attempting to switch in. Alternatively, Spiky Shield prevents revenge-killing attempts from Tornadus-T, Serperior, and Lokix and scouts Choice item users like Greninja, Keldeo, and Scizor Hisuian Arcanine. Reword this a bit. Spiky shield doesn’t actually stop these threats from revenge killing it apart from Lokix so I’d alter this to only mention Lokix. Also hisuian Arcanine doesn’t really run a choice item so I would replace it with scizor. Sturdy is an excellent asset, letting it always survive at least one hit and strike back against Tinkaton and Excadrill. Filler cut this. After Terastalization, Embody Aspect grants Ogerpon-C a Defense boost, giving it better odds against Pokemon like Scizor and Excadrill.

Ogerpon-C fits best on offensive teams as a strong wallbreaker capable of denting various defensive Pokemon. Offensive pivots such as Tornadus-T, Latios, and Scizor are excellent teammates for it, providing offensive momentum for Ogerpon-C to further capitalize off of. Like? Be sure to say what Pokémon they bring Ogerpon-C in against (rhyperior, Slowking, zapdos). Additionally, these Pokemon appreciate Ogerpon-C's efficiency into their checks, namely Rhyperior, Slowking, Tyranitar, and Hisuian Arcanine, while also helping overwhelm shared checks such as Tinkaton and Metagross. Entry hazard setters such as Cobalion, Sandy Shocks, and Tinkaton appreciate Ogerpon-C's good match ups into common hazard removal Pokemon such as Excadrill and Mandibuzz while making it more difficult to switch in on. What else do these Pokemon do for Ogerpon-C? Cobalion and Sandy handle Lokix and scizor, while tinkaton takes on Latios and choice scarf hoopa. Other wallbreakers such as Greninja, Excadrill, and Okidogi can help break through the likes of Tinkaton and Metagross while appreciating Ogerpon-C's efficiency into foes like Tornadus-T, Zapdos, and Hydrapple. You bring up what Corner does for its checks too much, I’ll cut this part. Id rather see this section discuss ways to answer certain Pokémon that have yet to be mentioned. Bring up checks to okidogi, who hard counters this set. Also bring up ways to pressure faster threats like Tornadus, Serperior, and Greninja, such as Choice Scarf users like okidogi and hoopa as well as priority users like lokix.

Ogerpon-C's STAB moves have high base power and great coverage on the tier, hitting numerous staples such as Zapdos, Excadrill, Slowking, and Scizor for massive damage. Superpower does good damage to Steel-types like Tinkaton and Cobalion. Mention how Stomping Tantrum still hits these Steel-types but also threatens Okidogi instead. U-turn lets Ogerpon-C develop offensive momentum, pivoting out of bad matchups such as Metagross and Okidogi while doing good damage to other foes such as Hydrapple and Zarude. Alternatively, Spiky Shield scouts revenge-killing attempts from Lokix as well as Choice item users like Greninja, Keldeo, and Scizor.

Ogerpon-C is extremely vulnerable to Okidogi, which resists all of its coverage and can hit hard in return with either of its STABs. Reword as tantrum now slashed does hit dogi but the point is still good Thus, Pokemon that can force Okidogi out such as Latios, Choice Scarf Hoopa-U, and Tornadus-T are greatly appreciated, preventing Okidogi from getting either a free set-up opportunity with Bulk Up or creating offensive momentum off of Ogerpon-C with other sets. Ogerpon-C's Speed, while very strong, can leave it vulnerable to Pokemon like Greninja, Tornadus-T, Choice Scarf Hoopa-U, and Choice Scarf Okidogi. It is also vulnerable to Lokix's First Impression. Thus, countermeasures to these foes such as Azumarill, Tinkaton, and Zapdos are greatly appreciated.
