[SET COMMENTS]
By employing the FEAR strategy, Togedemaru can use Sturdy to keep itself at 1 HP, Endeavor to simultaneously bring the foe down to 1 HP and heal itself back to full HP with Shell Bell, and Toxic or Spiky Shield to finally finish off the foe. This strategy can beat Pokemon such as Dracovish, Diggersby, and Sawk. This set's main purpose is psychological warfare; its presence instills fear into the opponent at Team Preview, making the user's own picking easier. The EVs are irrelevant due to the nature of being Level 1. Endeavor is crucial in order to bring the foe to 1 HP for Togedemaru to finish it off with Toxic or Spiky Shield. Toxic is Togedemaru's main way to finish off the foe. Note that if the foe uses Counter, Toxic should be used first before Endeavor. Spiky Shield is used to finish off the foe if they rely on contact moves, such as Sawk, Durant, and Conkeldurr. This is useful because unlike Toxic, Spiky Shield cannot miss, and it protects Togedemaru from moves like Knock Off, which removes Shell Bell, and Iron Head, which can cause Togedemaru to flinch. Additionally, Spiky Shield is also used to scout for Trick or Switcheroo from common Choice-item Pokemon such as Gardevoir, Rotom-W, Rotom-H, and Malamar. If Trick or Switcheroo is used, Encore can then be used to lock the foe into the move, allowing Togedemaru to freely use Endeavor and Toxic. Encore also allows Togedemaru to turn its matchup against Will-O-Wisp users like Arcanine into a coinflip. Berry Juice is another option over Shell Bell, allowing Togedemaru to consistently beat Counter users like Chansey while sacrificing matchups against some Sitrus Berry users like Arcanine. Alternatively, Disarming Voice can be used for its flawless accuracy and ability to hit Steel-types like non-Rock Blast Choice Band Steelix and Choice Specs Magnezone. However, Disarming Voice must be used with Shell Bell in order to bring the enemy to 1 HP.

Togedemaru is completely helpless against anything that is immune to Endeavor, such as Dragapult, Galarian Corsola, and Zeraora after it uses Plasma Fists. Pokemon like Fake Tears Sylveon can help remedy this, along with beating Rest users like Type: Null and stall Rotom-W, while Togedemaru takes care of threats to Sylveon such as Dracovish and Diggersby. The FEAR strategy also gets ruined by Substitute, Encore, and Yawn users such as Volcarona, Aromatisse, and Sylveon. Choice Band Dracovish can take care of these threats as well as help with Taunt users like Corviknight and Mandibuzz that Togedemaru cannot break. In return, Togedemaru can defeat Pokemon like Sawk and non-Substitute Kyurem. Togedemaru is also weak to Pokemon that use Mold Breaker, such as Haxorus and Excadrill, so teammates like bulky Primarina can cover for them. Togedemaru in return beats Pokemon like Diggersby and Milotic for Primarina.

By employing the FEAR strategy, Togedemaru can use Sturdy to keep itself at 1 HP, Endeavor to simultaneously bring the foe down to 1 HP and healing itself back to full HP with Shell Bell, replenishing Sturdy, then finishing off the foe using Toxic or Disarming Voice. This strategy can beat Pokemon such as Dracovish, Sawkknock off, find a better example, non-Substitute Kyuremthis comes down to a 50/50 on roost/attack mention this or find a better example,and Darmanitan-G as long as it does not flinch with Icicle Crash. This set's main purpose is psychological warfare: its presence instills fear into the opponent in team preview, making the user's own picking easier. The EVs are irrelevant, due to the nature of being Level 1. Endeavor is crucial to bring the opponent to low HP for Togedemaru to finish it off with Toxic or Disarming Voice. Toxic is useful in case the foe does not use an attacking move, making Endeavor leave the foe at 12 HP instead of 1. Meanwhile, Disarming Voice always hits, so it does not have to take the risk of missing against a foe with 1 HP. Spiky Shield is used to block Fake Out, although most Fake Out users have other ways to beat Togedemaru. It is also used as a last ditch effort against Contact moves, such as Knock Off that discards Shell Bell and an Iron Head that could flinch from Pokemon like Sawk and Durant.

Togedemaru is completely helpless against anything that is immune to Endeavor, such as Dragapult, Corsola-G, and Zeraora after it uses Plasma Fists. Pokemon like Fake Tears Sylveon can help remedy this, while Togedemaru takes care of Dracovish and Diggersby. The FEAR strategy also gets ruined by Substitute, Encore, Trick, or Sleep users, such as Cinderace, Aromatisse, Rotom-Heat, and Sylveon. Choice Band Dracovish can take care of these threats, as well as helping with Taunt users, which Togedemaru has great difficulty with due to the loss of Twineedle. In return, Togedemaru can defeat Pokemon like Sawk and non-Substitute Kyurem. I would also add somewhere in partners or the explanation of the threat that Mold Breaker mons pose.

looks pretty good excuse any potential formatting issues, mobile qc is hard. Tag when implemented

By employing the FEAR strategy, Togedemaru can use Sturdy to keep itself at 1 HP, Endeavor to simultaneously bring the foe down to 1 HP and healing itself back to full HP with Shell Bell, then finishing off the foe using Toxic or Disarming Voice. (GP are gonna have fun with that opening lmao) This strategy can beat Pokemon such as Dracovish, non-Subsitute Kyurem and Darmanitan-G as long as it does not flinch with Icicle Crash. This set's main purpose is psychological warfare: its presence instills fear into the opponent in team preview, making the user's own picking easier. The EVs are irrelevant, due to the nature of being Level 1. Endeavor is crucial to bring the opponent to low HP for Togedemaru to finish it off with Toxic or Disarming Voice. Toxic is useful in case the foe does not use an attacking move, making Endeavor leave the foe at 12 HP instead of 1. (Encore is preferred here as it gives you a means of dealing with choice mons that carry trick / switcheroo since you can scout with spiky shield and then encore them into it. Leads to more positive matchups generally speaking and has more merit compared to disarming voice, so make sure to discuss this move first.) Meanwhile, Disarming Voice always hits, so it does not have to take the risk of missing against a foe with 1 HP. Spiky Shield is used to scout for Trick / Switcheroo from common choice-item Pokemon such as Gardevoir, Rotom-W / H, and Malamar. (Make a mention of how it also serves as a safer option against pokemon that rely on contact moves such as the previously mentioned Dracovish and Sawk as well as Conkelurr, since you don't tisk missing toxic.) block Fake Out, although most Fake Out users have other ways to beat Togedemaru. (All you're going to beat is fake out incineroar which is arguably bad, hitmonlee which is pretty niche, and offensive salazzle which requires will then force you to run disarming voice. Overall, these examples are quite specific and not worth mentioning. It is also used as a last ditch effort against Contact moves, such as Knock Off that discards Shell Bell and an Iron Head that could flinch from Pokemon like Sawk and Durant. (Remove these because they're not practical examples. You beat sawk because it's choice locked into knock and as a result will die to spiky shield. Anything that has knock and isn't choice locked will just pick a non-contact move to finish it off. With durant, you need to avoid flinches which spiky shield doesn't do anything to help. Same process as any other choiced pokemon that uses a contact move; click endeavor and hope you don't get flinched, followed by spiky shield to finish it off.)

Togedemaru is completely helpless against anything that is immune to Endeavor, such as Dragapult, Corsola-G, and Zeraora after it uses Plasma Fists. Pokemon like Fake Tears Sylveon can help remedy this, while Togedemaru takes care of threats to sylveon such as of Dracovish and Diggersby. The FEAR strategy also gets ruined by Substitute, Encore and Trick, or Sleep users, (Is this implying yawn or rest? Both of which are equally as problematic, so specify that it's yawn sylveon and mention a rest mon like type: null) such as Cinderace, Aromatisse, Rotom-Heat and Sylveon. (Trick only ruins you if you're not running encore or fail to scout for it.) Choice Band Dracovish can take care of these threats, as well as helping with Taunt users (give examples; mandibuzz, cinderace, etc) that Togedemaru cannot break. which Togedemaru has great difficulty with due to the loss of Twineedle. (We don't talk about the loss of twineedle because it's not relevant to the mon in its current state.) In return, Togedemaru can defeat Pokemon like Sawk and non-Substitute Kyurem. Togedemaru is also weak to Pokemon that use Mold Breaker, such as Haxorus and Excadrill, which teammates like bulky Primarina can cover, (need to specify bulky in this since banded poison jab from both will kill) while Togedemaru staves off Pokemon like Diggersby and Milotic. (I have no idea if this point is good or not because i don't know what "staves off" means)

I dids it! The reason it has 1 speed EV is because showdown doesn't allow 0 EV spreads.
