Pros:
+ Incredibly high bulk on both sides (Higher special than:umbreon: and higher physical than:skarmory: by a significant margin)
+ Access to a wide spectrum of coverage options.
+ Access to Wish with quite a high HP stat.

Cons:
- Bad speed stat tieing:kingambit:
- Unimpressive offensive stats with unimpressive STAB options.
- Loss of ability upon Mega Evolving can not be understated with her only recovery move taking two turns.
- Wish as the only recovery can make protect seem almost mandatory.

- Lack of pivot moves to safely pass Wish.



Sets:

Bulky Calm Mind

Audino @ Audinite
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 32 HP / 32 Def / 2 Spe
Bold Nature
- Calm Mind
- Dazzling Gleam / Draining Kiss
- Wish
- Protect / Thunderbolt / Fire Blast
Draining Kiss makes for a more durable slow wincon in exchange for damage.
Fire Blast hits :skarmory::corviknight::kingambit::aegislash::scizor::scizor-mega::excadrill::excadrill-mega:
Thunderbolt hits :skarmory::corviknight::talonflame::charizard-mega-y::toxapex:

Offensive Calm Mind

Audino @ Audinite
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 2 Def / 32 SpA / 32 Spe
Modest Nature
- Calm Mind
- Dazzling Gleam
- Flamethrower
- Thunder Wave / Thunderbolt / Encore
This set is mostly meant to be used as a lure to cripple Audino's checks for another sweeper that shares those checks to win.
Encor generate free turns with the earlier being a good measure against walls that may attempt to duel it out with setup or recover their health.
Due to lack of Wish on this set, Mega Evolution should be delayed untill Audino is in premier condition.

Other Interesting Options:
Body Slam could be used as a main stab on Base Audino as a solid move and a way to spread paralysis.
Psyshock could be used to get through :slowking-galar::toxapex: more easily.
Skill Swap could be used on CM sets to take away Unaware from :clefable::skeledirge:
Low Kick could be used as a lure option for:kingambit:

Other Usable items on the base form: :chople-berry::leftovers::mental-herb:

When to Mega Evolve?
Audino wants to delay Mega Evolution as much as it could to preserve Regenerator and only evolve when it needs the extra bulk and SpA to win.

Good Partners:
:corviknight::skarmory: Cover for many of Audino-B/M's checks and the later lays hazards to give breakers a harder time switching around them.
:aegislash::kingambit: Cover for many of Audino-B/M's checks and benefits from Paralysis and Wish.

Notable Checks: :kingambit::toxapex::slowking-galar::aegislash::skeledirge::scizor::scizor-mega::excadrill::excadrill-mega:
