Tatsugiri-Droopy @ Focus Sash
Ability: Commander
Level: 50
Tera Type: Stellar / Normal
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest / Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Draco Meteor
- Muddy Water
- Helping Hand / Icy Wind
- Protect

[SET COMMENTS]
========
- Tatsugiri-D's role is to give Dondozo an omniboost thanks to Commander while also enabling Dondozo's Order Up to raise its Defense every time. Tatsugiri-D can also be used as a late-game cleaner after Dondozo faints with its decent Speed and good Special Attack.
- Draco Meteor threatens to OHKO some non-Assault Vest Miraidon and Raging Bolt variants as well as some Koraidon variants. Tatsugiri-D can also deal solid spread damage with Muddy Water. Helping Hand gives Tatsugiri-D a more supportive role, boosting the offense of partners like Calyrex-S, Chi-Yu, Miraidon, and Koraidon. With Helping Hand, Life Orb Calyrex-S can OHKO Assault Vest Iron Hands with Psychic, Chi-Yu can OHKO bulky Flutter Mane with Overheat, Choice Specs Miraidon can OHKO Calyrex-I and Assault Vest Incineroar with Electro Drift, and Life Orb Koraidon can OHKO Raging Bolt and Zamazenta-C with Close Combat.
- Icy Wind can be used over Helping Hand as a form of speed control.
- Focus Sash can help Tatsugiri-D survive one hit and dish out damage back or support its teammates, and it can also ensure that Tatsugiri-D survives to boost Dondozo.
- With a Modest nature and Tera Stellar, Draco Meteor can OHKO some bulky Urshifu-R and Assault Vest Raging Bolt variants. A Timid nature can instead outspeed Smeargle, as well as Miraidon, Koraidon, and Chien-Pao after a Speed drop, all while still guaranteeing an OHKO on non-bulky Urshifu-R.
- Tera Normal can also be used to become immune to Ghost-type attacks from Calyrex-S and Lunala.

Teambuilding
=========
- Dondozo is a mandatory partner for Commander Tatsugiri-D, as Tatsugiri-D has no other notable niche.
- Tatsugiri-D's subpar Speed and underwhelming bulk makes it vulnerable to various metagame threats such as Calyrex-S, Miraidon, and Koraidon.
- Tatsugiri-D also can have a hard time breaking through more specially defensive Pokemon such as Zamazenta-C, Flutter Mane, Rillaboom, and Assault Vest Iron Hands, which are all capable of dealing hefty damage to Tatsugiri-D.
- Galarian Weezing can shut down Commander with Neutralizing Gas, preventing Tatsugiri-D from supporting Dondozo.
- Calyrex-S and Miraidon can blast away foes and pave a path for the Tatsugiri-D + Dondozo combination to win the late-game, and Miraidon's pivoting via Volt Switch can help Tatsugiri-D and Dondozo get into a favorable position.

========
- Tatsugiri-D's role is to be aside Dondozo to give it an omniboost, while also enabling Dondozo's Order Up Even though it is obvious, you should mention that the omniboost is granted by Commander and you should rewrite the second half to mention which stat is increasing by Order Up. Tatsugiri-D can be also used as a late game cleaner with its decent Speed and good Special Attack after Dondozo faints.
- Draco Meteor threatens to OHKO Miraidon, Koraidon, and non-Assault Vest Raging Bolt, and Tatsugiri-D can deal solid spread damage with Muddy Water. Helping Hand gives Tatsugiri-D a more supportive role, boosting the offense of Calyrex-S, Chi-Yu, Miraidon, and Koraidon. Demonstrate how useful the damage boost from Helping Hand is, a simple calc to show something these pokemon can now OHKO would work. Add Icy Wind here too
- Focus Sash can help Tatsugiri-D survive one hit and dish out damage back or support its teammates. This is pretty much the case for every Focus Sash user, it would be worth mentioning Focus Sash ensures Tatsugiri-D survives to support Dondozo with Commander
- With a Modest Nature and Tera Stellar, Draco Meteor from Tatsugiri-D can OHKO Urshifu-R, Calyrex-S, and Assault Vest Raging Bolt, while a Timid Nautre nature can be opted for outspeeding Smeargle.
- Add a point for Tera Normal

Helping Hand gives Tatsugiri-D a more supportive role, boosting the offense of Calyrex-S, Chi-Yu, Miraidon, and Koraidon.

Add a bullet about Galarian Weezing preventing Tatsugiri-D from doing its role
- Dondozo is a mandatory partner for Commander Tatsugiri-D, as Tatsugiri-D has no other notable niche.
You could talk about Calyrex-S and Miraidon chipping away at foes for Dondozo mode to win the endgame, and in Miraidon's case, can help get them into position with its pivoting

- Draco Meteor threatens to OHKO most some (this one is on me; there are definitely a handful, particularly of the Choice Scarf ones, that can tank a Draco Meteor) non-Assault Vest Miraidon, Koraidon, and non-Assault Vest Raging Bolt, and Tatsugiri-D can deal solid spread damage with Muddy Water. Helping Hand gives Tatsugiri-D a more supportive role, boosting the offense of partners like Calyrex-S, Chi-Yu, Miraidon, and Koraidon. With Helping Hand, Life Orb Calyrex-S can OHKO Assault Vest (It's the only set for it, but it doesn't hurt to be specific) Iron Hands with Psychic, Chi-Yu can OHKO bulky Flutter Mane with Overheat, Choice Specs Miraidon can OHKO Calyrex-I and Assault Vest Incineroar with Electro Drift, and Life Orb Koraidon can OHKO Raging Bolt and Zahmazenta-C(typo) with Close Combat.
- Icy Wind can be preferred over Helping Hand for as a form of speed control.
- Focus Sash can help Tatsugiri-D survive one hit and dish out damage back or support its teammates, and it can also ensure that Tatsugiri survives to boost Dondozo.
- With a Modest nature and Tera Stellar, Draco Meteor from Tatsugiri-D can OHKO Urshifu-R (I would like to discuss the calcs on this; dm me about this whenever you can), Calyrex-S (My calc says that it doesn't OHKO a fairly standard Life Orb Calyrex-S set. You can replace it if you find another relevant calc or simply remove it), and Assault Vest Raging Bolt, while a Timid nature can be opted for outspeeding Smeargle.
- Tera Normal can also be used to become immune to Ghost-type attacks from Calyrex-S and Lunala
