[SET COMMENTS]

Choice Band Urshifu-R acts as a formidable wallbreaker, boasting a high Attack stat, an excellent offensive typing, and a great combination of coverage moves to break through weakened teams. Thanks its typing, Urshifu-R can effectively break down defensive Pokemon like Ting-Lu, Garganacl, and Ferrothorn. Urshifu-R generates momentum with U-turn, pivoting out of unfavorable matchups like Toxapex while dealing considerable chip damage to foes like Ogerpon-W and Rillaboom. Aqua Jet revenge kills weakened faster threats like Volcarona, Iron Moth, Tapu Koko, and Iron Valiant. Alternatively, Urshifu-R can use Ice Spinner to threaten Pokemon, which resist both its STAB moves, like Dragonite and Mega Latias, while Thunder Punch targets bulky Water-types, such as Toxapex and Alomomola.

Urshifu-R's wallbreaking ability and pivoting are appreciated by offensive and balanced teams. Iron Valiant and Tapu Lele form a great offensive core with Urshifu-R, as they benefit from Urshifu-R's ability to remove their checks like Ferrothorn and Moltres. In return, Iron Valiant and Tapu Lele can deal with troublesome foes like Raging Bolt. Volcarona appreciates Urshifu-R's ability to deal with the likes of Heatran and Ting-Lu while easily pivoting into Grass-types such as Rillaboom. Pokemon like Tapu Koko and Dragapult form a solid pivoting core, bringing each other in on their checks. Urshifu-R comes in against foes like Ferrothorn and Melmetal while Tapu Koko and Dragapult come in against walls like Toxapex and Tangrowth. Entry hazard setters, such as Landorus-T and Ferrothorn, are great partners for Urshifu-R, as it benefits from Stealth Rock and Spikes wearing down switch-ins like Ogerpon-W late-game. Ferrothorn also switches into Tapu Koko and Iron Valiant, which would revenge kill Urshifu-R with ease.

Choice Band Urshifu-R acts as a formidable wall(AS)breaker in the metagame, boasting a high Attack stat that is maximized with Choice Band, an excellent offensive typing in Water/Fighting, and a great combination of powerful STAB moves to break through weakened teams. Thanks to that powerful combination, it can effectively break down defensive Pokemon like Ting-Lu, Garganacl, and Ferrothorn while maintaining momentum for its team (Fluff). Urshifu generates momentum with U-Turn allowing it to pivot out of unfavorable matchups Examples? while dealing considerable chip damage to foes like Serperior Ogerpon-W More relevant. Aqua Jet is solid option as a move for Urshifu-R which allows it to revenge kill weakened faster threats like Volcarona, Iron Moth, Tapu Koko, and Iron Valiant. Alternatively, Urshifu-R can use Ice Spinner in order to threaten Pokemon that resist both its STAB moves, Surging Strikes and Close Combat this was pretty much stated when you mentioned Stabs, like Dragonite and Mega Latias while Thunder Punch (RS) targets bulky Water-types, such as Toxapex and Alomomola.

Urshifu-R's wallbreaking ability and pivoting are appreaciated appreciated by offensive and balanced teams. Iron Valiant, and Tapu Lele form a great offensive core with Urshifu-R as they benefit from Urshifu-R's ability to remove their checks like Galarian Slowking Ferrothorn Think this is a bit more relevant, and in return, Iron Valiant and Tapu Lele can deal with troublesome foes for Urshifu-R like Raging Bolt. Volcarona is another great offensive partner, as it appreciates Urshifu-R's ability to deal with the likes of Heatran and Ting-Lu. Pokemon like Tapu Koko and Dragapult form a solid pivoting core, and so the team benefits from the momentum gain. I suggest rewording this line by providing examples how these mons and Urshifu bring each other in on their checks. Hazard setters, such as Landorus-T and Glimmora Ferrothorn, are great partners for Urshifu-R which benefits from hazards like them setting Stealth Rock and Spikes, or Toxic Spikes that wear down switch-ins Examples? later in the game, allowing it to secure KOs more reliably I think a couple of calcs would be good here as well. Choice Band Urshifu-R is threatened by faster offensive threats like Tapu Koko and Iron Valiant as they hit it with super-effective moves. Therefore, Pokemon that Urshifu-R appreciates are the likes of Pokemon such as Heatran and Mega Venusaur Ferrothorn, which have the ability to reliably switch-in to those threats Here you could mention how they set hazards for Urshifu to assist with it’s breaking. Urshifu-R struggles with Bulky bulky Water-types like Toxapex are a struggle for Urshifu-R, so partners like Raging Bolt are a solid option. Explain why it is a good partner and what it does for urshifu and vice versa.
