[SET COMMENTS]
Ogerpon-W is a threatening wallbreaker thanks to its good stats and incredible movepool, featuring high Base Power STAB moves and strong coverage options. Power Whip is the standard Grass-type STAB move of choice due to its power, but Horn Leech can be used to avoid missing and provide Ogerpon-W with healing. Knock Off can hinder switch-ins like Intimidate Corviknight and Dragonite. Play Rough stops Dragonite from being a safe switch-in, as well as surprising Roaring Moon that try to switch in with an OHKO. U-turn allows Ogerpon-W to pivot out on bad matchups like the aforementioned Intimidate Corviknight and Dragonite. Stomping Tantrum hits Water-immune foes such as Water Absorb Heatran and Desolate Land Iron Moth and Ceruledge. Primordial Sea boosts Ogerpon-W's Ivy Cudgel to absurd levels, consistently 2HKOing non-Intimidate Corviknight while also giving Ogerpon-W a Fire immunity. Sword of Ruin is an alternative option to boost the power of all of Ogerpon-W's moves, notably OHKOing physically defensive Manaphy with Power Whip. Ogerpon-W pairs well with teammates like Zamazenta and Iron Boulder that can break through non-Fluffy Corviknight. It also appreciates Stealth Rock setters like Great Tusk and Scream Tail, as they discourage Pokemon like Dragonite from switching in and help chip down defensive Pokemon. While Ogerpon-W's Speed tier is good, it can still get easily revenge killed by Pokemon like Roaring Moon, Deoxys-S, and Zamazenta, so a strong defensive core featuring teammates such as Manaphy and Corviknight is appreciated. Ogerpon-W struggles with switching in safely, so it appreciates slow pivots like the aforementioned Corviknight and Manaphy.

Ogerpon-W is a threatening wallbreaker thanks to its good stats and incredible movepool, featuring high BP STABs high-base power STAB moves and strong coverage moves options. Power Whip is the standard Grass-STAB of choice due to its power, but Horn Leech can be used to avoid a miss chance and provide Ogerpon-W with healing, helping it stay alive throughout the course of a game and offsetting entry hazard chip. Knock Off can remove Heavy-Duty Boots and Leftovers from switch-ins like Intimidate Corviknight and Dragonite. Play Rough stops the aforementioned Dragonite from being a safe switch-in, as well as surprising Roaring Moon that try to switch in with an OHKO. U-Turn allows Ogerpon-W to pivot out on bad matchups Any examples on notable bad matchups?, generating momentum for its team. Stomping Tantrum hits Water-immunities like Water Absorb Heatran and Desolate Land Iron Moth Water-immune foes such as Water Absorb Heatran and Desolate Land Iron Moth and Ceruledge. Primordial Sea boosts Ogerpon-W's Ivy Cudgel to absurd levels Any thresholds that PrimSea reaches that SoR does not? Important to mention why one ability's preferred over another, while also giving Ogerpon-W a Fire-immunity and being able to override Desolate Land. Sword of Ruin is an alternative option to boost the power of all of Ogerpon-W's moves, while also boosting its bulk against other Sword of Ruin users, notably surviving a Choice Band Chien-Pao Icicle Crash and a Roaring Moon Outrage. Ogerpon-W pairs well with teammates like Zamazenta and Barraskewda Another example's better here since 1ac moment + Barra isn't too relevant right now that can break through non-Fluffy Corviknight, as Corviknight will lose to either Ogerpon-W or one of the teammates depending on whether it is Intimidate or Fluffy. Ogerpon-W also appreciates Stealth Rock setters like Great Tusk and Scream Tail as they discourage Pokemon like Dragonite from switching in and help chip down defensive Pokemon, improving Ogerpon-W's ability to make progress. While Ogerpon-W's speed tier is good, it can still get easily revenge killed by Pokemon like Roaring Moon, Deoxys-S, and Zamazenta, so a strong defensive core featuring teammates such as Manaphy and Corviknight, who can also help Ogerpon-W switch in easier due to them being slow pivots. Would be better to just rewrite this to mention that Ogerpon-W appreciates slow pivots that can take these aformentioned mons on while also pivoting it in.

Worth noting that it's spelled "U-turn" and not "U-Turn", fix all those typos

Sword of Ruin is an alternative option to boost the power of all of Ogerpon-W's moves, while also boosting its bulk against other Sword of Ruin users, notably surviving a Choice Band Chien-Pao Icicle Crash and a Roaring Moon Outrage i'm not really sure if this is relevant enough to mention; maybe talking about thresholds on coverage moves would be better. Ogerpon-W pairs well with teammates like Zamazenta and Iron Boulder that can break through non-Fluffy Corviknight, as Corviknight will lose to either Ogerpon-W or one of the teammates depending on whether it is Intimidate or Fluffy.

Ogerpon-W struggles with switching in safely, so it appreciates slow pivots like the aforementioned Corviknight and Manaphy.

note: this analysis is really long; i tried removing some of the fluff but you might want to remove some unnecessary stuff too
