Due to its great natural Speed and Attack, Cinderace makes a great offensive pivot on Fire teams that also gives the team to remove entry hazards thanks to Court Change. Court Change is especially useful for Fire teams, as they are weak to Stealth Rock. Pyro Ball is its main STAB attack and hits many Stealth Rock setters like Celebi and Bronzong hard. High Jump Kick is to hit Dark- and Rock-type Pokemon such as Hydreigon and Tyranitar. Sucker Punch allows Cinderace to target faster threats such as Dragapult while also being able to pick off weakened threats. U-turn allows it to pivot out of a bad matchup such as against Toxapex and bring in the appropriate teammate. U-turn can also be used to pick up momentum when Cinderace forces a switch. Heavy-Duty Boots allows it to ignore hazards on the field so that it can use Court Change effectively. Cinderace should use Court Change when it is more beneficial to switch hazard fields, such as against a hazard stacking team to punish them rather than clearing the hazards with Torkoal's Rapid Spin.

All of Cinderace's teammates appreciate its ability to generate momentum with U-turn and swap hazard fields with Court Change. Torkoal is a great teammate for Cinderace as it completes the hazard removal core with Cinderace thanks to Rapid Spin, since Court Change cannot remove Stealth Rock if both sides have it set. Torkoal can also set up sun for its teammates Fire-type attacks to hit harder as well as provide Stealth Rock if the opponent doesn't have it. Rotom-H can break physical walls that Cinderace can't handle like Galarian Corsola with a Nasty Plot set or make for a good offensive pivot with Volt Switch. Rotom-H can also threaten Water-type Pokemon such as Toxapex with its Electric STAB attacks. Chandelure is a strong special wallbreaker that can take on Water-type Pokemon such as Seismitoad and Gastrodon thanks to its coverage in Energy Ball. Arcanine can clean late-game thanks to Extreme Speed picking off weakened threats for Cinderace. Charizard is a good partner thanks to it being Fire teams main speed control with a Choice Scarf, being able to take on Dragon teams due to its good natural Speed and access to Dragon Pulse. Choice Band Darmanitan is an extraordinary wallbreaker, especially in the Sun, being able to 2HKO all of the metagame while also being able to pivot in teammates with U-turn. Salazzle can wear down Pokemon that wall Cinderace such as Toxapex thanks to its ability to Toxic poison all non-Magic Bounce Pokemon.

Rename the set to "Offensive Utility"

Talk about its good Attack and Speed in the first line, as that is what makes it a good offensive threat. I would reorder it to something like talking about its offensive presence and then talking about its access to Court Change and diving into why that's great in the sentence after it.

Would talk about Court Change being good because Fire teams are typically susceptible to hazards, namely Stealth Rock.

Would name some examples of Pokemon that Cinderace has a bad matchup against that you'd use to generate momentum with using U-turn. Also talk about generating momentum against forced switches.

Put something in for Heavy Duty Boots. If you're going to talk about its EVs, talk about Pokemon it can outspeed using the Speed EVs.

For the team options, talk about how all of Cinderace's teammates enjoy its ability to remove hazards or something along the lines, as well as generating momentum for its teammates using U-turn.

Salazzle > Coalossal and talk about its ability to wear Pokemon Cinderace struggles against with Toxic and give examples. Coalossal is lackluster on Fire.

Slash Sucker Punch with High Jump Kick as Cinderace can afford to drop it if it has Close Combat Arcanine or Superpower Darmanitan as a partner. Sucker Punch is nice for hitting some threats like Dragapult and Gengar, as well as picking off weakened foes.

Mention Rotom-H's ability to threaten Water-types with its Electric-type attacks.

Add Darmanitan as a teammate. It's ridiculously strong with Sheer Force + Sun boosting its Flare Blitz.

An absolute ton of basic errors you're better than this bro... Stealth Rocks, lower case speed and attack, etc. Please be more mindful of basic grammar mistakes before sending analyses to GP.
