Overview
########
[OVERVIEW]
Without a shadow of doubt, Girafarig can be evaluated as (I prefer "considered", but I think it's subjective) a weak Pokemon, (remove semicolon and add comma) as its defenses are really too bad, (AC) but Girafarig's decent Speed could be useful to dry passing pass a possible Nasty Plot boost. Girafarig has a good typing type combination, with a good immunity/resistances merging which gives it some useful resistances and the immunity to Ghost-Type. (period) Sap Sipper ability gives can give it an probable additional boost and the immunty immunity to Grass-type moves. So, (AC) Girafarig could be preferred over Mr.Mime because, despite it's stronger, Girafarig could have a better chance than Mr.Mime for a free switch., more than Mr.Mine.

Moves
=======
Baton Pass is the key main move, (AC) since Girafarig can pass its boosts to another Pokemon when battle conditions ensures enough Speed to do that. Nasty Plot is necessary to boost Girafarig's below-average Special Attack. of 279 all the way up to 558 in a single turn. (useless mention) Hyper Voice and Psychic are good STAB moves. In particular, Psychic hits Roselia very hard, (AC) Hyper Voice can hit through Substitute users and hits can deal damage to Dark-, / (remove slash) and Psychic-types that resist Psychic; (add semicolon) so giving This gives Girafarig a good attack coverage. Since Girafarig's Special Attack is quite decent, that's the first option. (useless mention) Substituite is Substitute can be an option over Hyper Voice, if we want to use Girafarig as a Girafarig is used as an absolute Baton Pass Pokemon.
Set Details
========
EVs are to This EVs spread maximizes Special Attack and Speed, a Timid nature is useful to support its offensive capabilty capability and Baton Pass, by outspeeding Taunt Barbaracle and Kricketune. Increase its defense could be useless, but always it's better to set remaining 4 HP on SDef (explain why or remove this mention). Talking about items, Life Orb, (AC) boosts power attacks. Ddespite 10% recoil each turn, it's really good for to maximize its offensive power opponent damages. Otherwise, Leftovers is recommended if we would use Girafarig is used with Substitute, recovering as Leftovers allow to recover some HP each turn and preventing Girafarig from foes attacks (this sentence isn't correct, even if I understood what you meant). Finally, it's best to keep Girafarig away from Pokemons (no -s for plural with the word "Pokemon") that carry Knock Off (e.g. such as Leafeon, (AC) and Pawniard) and other faster sweepers, (AC) as faster; Girafarig's defenses could be insufficient.
Usage Tips
========
Girafarig can set up on Grass-types like such as Tangela, (AC) since and it's possible to gain an extra boost in Attack, (RC) thanks to Sap Sipper ability. But
also Thanks to for its typing (I don't understand this statement), Girafarig can also find to way to run its role: boosting and pass its boosts to its teammates, preferably safely behind a Substitute. Furthermore, Girafarig can boost itself and can be used as late-game sweeper, (AC) since and Hyper Voice and Psychic have a decent coverage., hits better PU mons.
Team Options
========
Carracosta is a good teammate; they are it's weak to grass attacks but and it absorbs Knock Off, Girafarig's biggest weakness. Also, Poliwrath and most bulky Rock-types are good teammates to tank (this is not a verb) resist Knock Off and set up Stealth Rock respectively. They handle Bug-types pretty well and will most likely revenge kill Girafarig if it tries to set up (This sentence has no sense). Stealth Rock support is important because it's punishing punishes switches and can ensuring KOs. So Barbaracle, Aurorus, (AC) and leftovers Golem are good for this goal role. So As you they can help deal with Grumpig and wear down other phazers, Knock-Off Pokemons users as such as Pawniard and Leafeon are good teammates, too. Also every Special Attackers such as Haunter, Rapidash, Kadabra, Simipour, Heatmor, Beheeyem, Chatot, and Misdreavus are good Girafarig's teammates because they can benefit from Nasty Plot. (period): Haunter, Rapidash, Kadrabra, Simipour and Heatmor, but also Beheeyem, Chatot and Misdreavus (however it has just Nasty Plot). Finally, (AC) Pokemon that are weak to Grass-type moves are good teammates for Girafarig as it can absorb Grass-type moves thanks to Sap Sipper. that lure out Grass-types seem smart are good teammates, so outside of Golem and Carracosta aforesaid, other Water-types like Simipour and Floatzel too. (I reworded this because it was messed up)

[STRATEGY COMMENTS]
Other Options
=============
Psyshock over Psychic sustains itself on helps deal with bulky opponents as such as Lickilicky. Also Shadow Ball can be used in a full special sweeper set. In fact it has a good coverage with Girafarig's STABs and hit Pokemon e.g. such as Kadabra and Misdreavus. Signal Beam hits can hit Dark- (hyphen), Psychic-(hyphen), (AC) and Grass-types. (period) so Grass Knot and Thunderbold Thunderbolt are also available to hit specific threats depending on the rest of the team. Others boosting moves are good alternatives: Agility allows Girafarig to boost its Speed and eventually to make switch (with boost stats) easier. Calm Mind (over Nasty Plot) is usable with Baton Pass, too; increasing also Special Defense could make easier boosts passing to teammates. Agility is useful to pass the Speed boost, whereas Calm Mind is useful to pass also a Special Defensive boost. (I reworded that sentence as it was pretty confusing) Finally, Magic Coat to help bounce Taunt and Encore.
Checks & Counters
########
===================
**Knock-Off**: Leafeon is faster and lethal. But also Pawniard can avoid check Girafarig and threaten (to threat is not a verb) it with Knock Off, (AC) and the Baton Pass recipient with Sucker Punch.
**Strong Attackers**: Aurorus can resist Girafarig's attacks and kill KO it with Hyper Voice. Chatot overspeeds it and KOs it with Boomburst. Regice endures can resist its attacks and hits Girafarig with Ice Beam. Carracosta is really dangerous if Girafarig haven't doesn't have (or hasn't got) Thunderbolt. (period) Tauros is 2HKOs Girafarig with Rock Climb, while Ninetales is the same 2HKOs it with Flamethrower. Rotom-F is can 2HKO it with Blizzard.
**Steel-Type**: Probopass can Volt Switch on the Baton Pass into a check or counter for the recipient. Furthermore Klang can set up on it and Bastiodon can phasze it out.
**Phazing**: Both Poliwrath and Lickilicky can phaze Girafarig with Circle Throw and Dragon Tail, respectively, while Substitute variants can be phazed by Roar and Whirlwind users such as Quilladin and Grumpig.
**Other Moves Anti Baton Pass**: Encore, Taunt, Trick are all moves that can spoil Girafarig's Baton Pass set. So, (AC) Encore Chatot, Taunt Grumpig, (AC) and Misdreavus, and Trick Beheeyem can prevent Girafarig from passing its boosts. are so wasting for Girafarig's role.
