[SET COMMENTS]
Farigiraf is niche, but potentially very lethal Trick Room sweeper in PU. Although suffering stiff competition from other offensive Psychic-types such as Galarian Articuno, Espeon, and especially Trick Room Galarian Slowbro, Farigiraf makes up for it thanks to having incredible bulk, a great 110 Special Attack in tandem with Nasty Plot, and most notably Armor Tail, allowing it to completely bypass Sucker Punch attempts from the likes of Skuntank, Zoroark, and Brute Bonnett. Psyshock allows Farigarif to be able to muscle through Specially Defensive threats like Goodra and Frosmoth easier. With Tera Blast, Farigiraf has a stab move before Terastalizing, allowing it to hit Dark-types. Farigiraf has a variety of viable Tera Types depending on what it wants to beat. Tera Fairy allows Farigiraf to resist Knock Off while also hitting Wo-Chien and Altaria. An alternative is Tera Fire, allowing Farigiraf to still be able to deal with Wo-Chien, while also allowing it to target Alolan Sandslash and Venusaur while resisting Moonblast from Florges. Finally, Electric is a more specialized option that allows Farigiraf to hit Milotic, Galarian Articuno, and Cramorant for super-effective damage.
