Charizard is one of the strongest Pokemon in VGC 2022; under Groudon's sun, it obliterates nearly everything. It also easily snowballs with Max Airstream, and has good matchups into many common Pokemon like Zacian-C, Rillaboom, and Amoonguss. G-Max Wildfire's incredible residual damage sets up teammates like Groudon, Zacian-C, and Regieleki to sweep. Blast Burn and Hurricane give Charizard the strongest possible G-Max Wildfire and Max Airstream. Charizard's Max Airstream is a very potent snowballing tool and supports its team with Speed boosts. Heat Wave grants Charizard a great spread attack for when it's not Gigantamaxed, as Hurricane is inaccurate and Blast Burn has a recharge turn. Ancient Power allows Charizard to OHKO opposing non-Charti Berry Charizard via Max Rockfall. Solar Beam is used to OHKO the common Gastrodon with Max Overgrowth, and with Life Orb, it can even KO a chipped Kyogre. Life Orb makes Charizard nuclear, achieving feats like OHKOing physically defensive Incineroar, Dynamaxed Zapdos, and Assault Vest Yveltal. Charti Berry lets Charizard survive Rock-type moves such as Max Rockfall from Groudon, Landorus-T, and opposing Charizard. Lum Berry protects Charizard against status moves like Venusaur's Sleep Powder and Grimmsnarl's Thunder Wave.

Is the paragraph format OK? You don't have to change it if it is, just not sure how that's being handled in VGC C&C atm. Anyways, here's a check!

I think it's worth pointing out that Max Overgrowth does much more damage in the rain than anything else against Kyogre. While I realize that's obvious and ideally, a Charizard team is gonna have ways to keep the sun up against Kyogre, it can make or break close games where you lose weather control!

That's... actually all I have LOL. Charizard is a super straight forward mon and you covered the important parts. Once we figure out whether this is supposed to be bullet points or paragraphs, consider this a QC Approved 1/1 from me!
