Cinccino @ Loaded Dice
Ability: Technician
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Tidy Up
- Tail Slap
- Knock Off
- Encore

Cinccino's fur is as clean as its sweeps! Cinccino is a staple on hyper offensive teams, serving as both a potent setup sweeper and as entry hazard control. The Technician + Loaded Dice combination makes Cinccino a lot stronger than it looks, making Tail Slap reach a minimum of 150 Base Power! Knock Off lets Cinccino hit Ghost-types like Brambleghast and Hisuian Typhlosion, and it also weakens Steel-types like Bronzong and Registeel, which helps teammates like Oricorio-E and Porygon-Z. Encore grants Cinccino setup opportunities by locking foes into status moves. Tera Ghost flips the script on Fighting-type attacks like Bronzong and Orthworm's Body Press, with Encore further punishing them. Cinccino is quite the team player; Tidy Up removes hazards, facilitating Stealth Rock-weak Pokemon like Chandelure, Oricorio-E, and Scyther. Cinccino's reliance of contact moves makes it dread coming across Rocky Helmet holders like Vileplume and Galarian Slowbro, but Knock Off can remove the Rocky Helmet to support other contact-attacking teammates like Mienshao and Basculegion.

Cinccino's fur is as clean as its sweeps! Cinccino is a staple on hyper offensive teams, serving as both a potent setup sweeper and as entry hazard control. The Technician + Loaded Dice combo makes Cinccino a lot stronger than it looks, making Tail Slap reach a minimum of 150 BP! Knock Off lets Cinccino hit Ghost-types like Brambleghast and Hisuian Typhlosion, and it also weakens Steel-types like Bronzong and Registeel which helps teammates like Oricorio Pom-Pom and Porygon-Z. Encore grants Cinccino setup opportunities by locking foes into status moves. Tera Ghost changes Cinccino's Fighting weakness to an immunity, and this can even be used with Encore to lock opponents into Fighting-type attacks. (mention how this can let it flip entire matchups whether that be against scarf shao or zong and worm, as i feel this is a big point of encore personally) Cinccino is quite the team-player, Tidy Up removes entry hazards, facilitating other offensive teammates like Chandelure, Oricorio Pom-Pom, and Scyther. (maybe specify how it lets them free up their item slot?, good either way, though) Cinccino's reliance of contact moves makes it dread coming across Rocky Helmet holders like Vileplume and Galarian Slowbro, but Knock Off can remove the Rocky Helmet to support other contact-attacking teammates like Mienshao and Basculegion. (you could also mention how shao ~and maybe waterbull~ can take care of steels for cincc)
