[SET COMMENTS]
Galarian Farfetch'd possesses a stellar Attack stat which, combined with Swords Dance, allows it to be a fearsome wallbreaker with access to a powerful STAB move in Close Combat and coverage/utility options like Knock Off and Defog. Knock Off is great for crippling its defensive checks like Mareanie and Spritzee, while Brave Bird allows it to hit Fairy- and opposing Fighting-types like Timburr, opposing Galarian Farfetcth'd, and Cutiefly for super effective damage. Quick Attack is also a viable option to help it revenge kill faster threats. Alternatively, it can run a Choice Scarf to make up for its slightly mediocre Speed tier to perform the role of a revenge killer. Scrappy is a great ability that allows Galarian Farfetch'd to spam its STAB Close Combat without fear of Ghost-types like Frillish pivoting in. Poison Jab should only be used on Choice Scarf variants to make up for its lack of Swords Dance and threaten Fairy-types like Spritzee.

Partners that appreciate the removal of Steel-types like Ferroseed and Pawniard, such as Chinchou and Cutiefly, benefit from the wallbreaking capabilities Galarian Farfetch'd possesses in order to sweep easier. Cutiefly can also make up for Galarian Farfetch'd's lack of Speed by setting up Sticky Webs to prevent it from being revenge killed by opposing Cutiefly and Galarian Ponyta. Pokemon capable of checking Fairy- or Psychic-types like Galarian Ponyta and Spritzee are necessary, as Galarian Farfetch'd struggles to break past them, so partners like Cufant, Pawniard, and Gastly are appreciated. Entry hazard users such as Onix, Dwebble, and Ferroseed make great partners as they can help Galarian Farfetch'd overwhelm its aforementioned defensive checks. Checks to Flying- and Poison-types, such as Mareanie, Galarian Ponyta, and Onix, make good partners as Farfetcth'd can struggle to deal with them otherwise. Partners like Rufflet and Drifloon appreciate Galarian Farfetch'd's ability to remove items from bulky Pokemon with Knock Off, which helps them sweep easier.

[Stoward]

Not QC, so you don’t have to implement this.

1. I think it’d be better to move SD / Defog / Pjab down to the bottom, since they’re not really mandatory on Farfetch’d, unlike the other three

2. It’d be cool to mention in the first paragraph about how Brave Bird provides Farfetch’d with perfect neutral coverage as this is one of its main selling points.

3. Gastly has levitate so doesn’t care about Webs.

4. Galarian Ponyta isn’t a Fairy-type.

Other than that I think this is pretty good.

 

[Merritt]

Good check Stoward.

Set is fine, but the set comments are very long, significantly more than we want in the pre analyses.

A STAB move is by definition not a coverage option, you need to fix the lead in.

In general the whole first paragraph should be condensed as much as possible, you've got way too much here. Things like explaining perfect neutral coverage is nice in an abstract sense but not necessary for a preview analysis, just explain what specifically Brave Bird's trying to hit (opposing fighters, Fairy-types like Cutiefly). Similarly, Choice Scarf should be condensed - Choice Scarf is an alternative to Eviolite that turns Galarian Farfetch'd into an effective cleaner.

Galarian Ponyta is not a Fairy-type.

For teammates, mention something that can handle Flying-types and Poison-types (particularly Mareanie), as Farfetch'd can struggle somewhat with those.

Add a credits section, format below.

qc 2/2 nice job

 

[PyProd]

Not QC but wouldn't Quick Attack be a nice thing to mention, as it helps Evio pick off faster and frailer chipped threats?

Mostly just punctuation changes to help some of the analysis read more smoothly, seems fine otherwise. GP 1/1.
