Choice Band Brute Bonnet uses its great STAB combination, good overall coverage, and sizable bulk to become an effective wallbreaker. Close Combat allows Brute Bonnet to hit foes such as Orthworm, Hisuian Decidueye, and Virizion hard. Sucker Punch allows Brute Bonnet to revenge kill dangerous offensive threats such as Floatzel, Magneton, and Typhlosion in an emergency. However, it should be used with caution, as being locked into Sucker Punch is very undesirable due to how easily it can be exploited by the opponent. Tera Dark gives Crunch a significant power boost, giving Brute Bonnet the ability to 2HKO bulky foes such as Weezing, Orthworm, and physically defensive Qwilfish after Stealth Rock. Tera Fighting, however, can be used as an alternative to power up Close Combat, allowing it to OHKO Virizion, 2HKO defensive Hisuian Decidueye, and 2HKO defensive Hisuian Qwilfish after Stealth Rock. An Adamant nature is required to give Brute Bonnet as much power as possible.

Choice Band Brute Bonnet fits best on bulky offense and balance teams. Brute Bonnet tends to invite in threats such as Hisuian Decidueye, Virizion, Passimian, and Whimsicott to attempt a revenge kill. Bulky Poison-types such as Weezing, Qwilfish, and Muk are therefore standout partners, as they can help stave off these threats. Brute Bonnet complements them by coming in on Ground- and Psychic-type attacks from the likes of Rhydon, Palossand, Sandaconda, and Mesprit, which offensive teammates such as Lycanroc and Jolteon appreciate as well. Dipplin is another great teammate that can help out against most physical revenge killers. A specially bulky teammate, such as Dudunsparce, Mesprit, or Lanturn, can help stave off revenge killing attempts from the likes of Charizard, Typhlosion, and Magneton; the last two also help Brute Bonnet get in safely with their slow pivot moves, while the first two can set Stealth Rock or spread status for Brute Bonnet to take advantage of. Brute Bonnet is also quite slow, and it benefits from VoltTurn partners that can get it in safely. It therefore loves faster pivoting teammates, such as Jolteon, Choice Scarf Passimian, and Choice Scarf Floatzel, that can help it overcome the shortcoming of its low Speed. These teammates appreciate Brute Bonnet's wallbreaking capabilities facilitating a potential late-game sweep. Brute Bonnet hates being statused, so teammates that can absorb attempts to burn and paralyze it, such as Naclstack, Typhlosion, and Lanturn are appreciated. It also appreciates paralysis being spread onto the opposing team, as teams can take advantage of its poor Speed tier. As such, teammates like Porygon2, Dudunsparce, Cramorant, and Sandaconda make for good partners.

Choice Band Brute Bonnet is an powerful wallbreaker that looks to break open a team's defensive core to facilitate its teammates (this is basically just describing what a wallbreaker does and you already mentions who appreciates its wallbreaking below. use this sentence to talk about what sets it apart as a breaker. its STABs + CC coverage? its great attack stat? typing and bulk? etc). Close Combat allows Brute Bonnet to hit foes such as Orthworm, Hisuian Decidueye, and Virizion hard. Sucker Punch allows Brute Bonnet to revenge kill dangerous offensive threats such as Floatzel, Magneton, and Typhlosion in an emergency. However, it should be used with caution, as being locked into Sucker Punch is very undesirable due to how easily it can be abused by the opponent. A Dark Tera gives Crunch a significant power boost, as Brute Bonnet gains the ability to 2HKO bulky foes such as Weezing, Orthworm, and Physically Defensive Qwilfish after Stealth Rock. Tera Fighting, however, can be used as an alternative to power up Close Combat, therefore allowing it to OHKO Virizion, 2HKO Defensive Hisuian Decidueye, and 2HKO Defensive Hisuian Qwilfish after Stealth Rock. An Adamant Nature is required to give Brute Bonnet as much power as possible.

Choice Band Brute Bonnet fits best on bulky offense and balance teams. Its STAB moves, while quite dangerous to switch into directly, are generally not especially difficult to play around once the opponent has identified the set, and it will invite in dangerous offensive threats that resist its chosen move. Brute Bonnet benefits from a solid defensive core behind it as a result. (this is a bit too wordy and not needed, the next two sentences explain it well enough) Brute Bonnet tends to invite in threats such as Hisuian Decidueye, Virizion, Passimian, and Whimsicott to attempt a revenge kill. Bulky Poison-types such as Weezing, Qwilfish, and Muk are therefore standout partners, as they can help stave off these threats. Dipplin is another option that can help out against most physically oriented revenge killers. A specially bulky teammate, such as Dudunsparce, Mesprit, and Lanturn, can help stave off revenge killing attempts from the likes of Charizard, Typhlosion, or Magneton. The latter two also help Brute Bonnet get in safely with their slow pivot moves, while the former two can set Stealth Rock or spread status for Brute Bonnet to take advantage of. Brute Bonnet is also quite slow, and it benefits from VoltTurn partners that can get it in safely. It therefore loves faster pivoting teammates, such as Jolteon, Choice Scarf Passimian, and Choice Scarf Floatzel, who can help it overcome the shortcoming of its low speed. These teammates appreciate Brute Bonnet's wallbreaking capabilities facilitating a potential late game sweep. mention some mons bonnet can switch in on and take advantage of for teammates that struggle against them, for example, bonnet comes in well on conda and palo, which mons like jolt and lycan appreciate. could also be good to mention status absorbers as teammates since you mention it in checks and counters. para spreaders could also be talked about to help with bonnets slow speed, making it harder to revenge kill or switch into
