[SET COMMENTS]
Indeedee is a good Choice Scarf user on Normal teams due to its decent Speed stat, being able to outspeed threats like Zamazenta and Okidogi. Thanks to its part-Psychic typing, it is able to take out foes like Iron Valiant and Urshifu-R with Expanding Force. Combining Psychic Surge with Expanding Force allows Indeedee to take out threats like Zamazenta, Great Tusk, Iron Hands, and Toxapex. Dazzling Gleam lets Indeedee pressure Dark-, Fighting-, and Dragon-types like Choice Specs Greninja, Scrafty, and Hydreigon. Trick can punish common walls like Ting-Lu, Corviknight, and Empoleon, while Healing Wish provides support for the team.
Choice Specs Hisuian Zoroark is a nice teammate for Indeedee, being able to check Ghost-, Steel- and Psychic-types like Ceruledge, Archaludon, and Metagross. Hisuian Zoroark also provides help by using Trick to Choice-lock walls like Alolan Muk and Assault Vest Iron Hands. Indeedee returns the favor by taking out bulky foes like Clodsire and Toxapex and providing immunity against Sucker Punch Kingambit while the Psychic Terrain from its ability remains active. Ditto helps Indeedee as a late-game wincon by transforming into Chien-Pao, Baxcalibur, and Gouging Fire in the Dark, Dragon, and Fire matchups, respectively, reverse sweeping when possible. Smeargle is a nice entry hazard setter, providing Spikes and Sticky Web for Indeedee to slow down fast Choice Scarf users like Sneasler, Urshifu-R, and Roaring Moon. Calm Mind Ursaluna-B deals with specially defensive Pokemon that Indeedee can't break like Alolan Muk, Hisuian Goodra, and Tyranitar. In return, Indeedee takes out Iron Valiant and Urshifu-R without Choice Scarf for Ursaluna-B and Smeargle. Blissey is a nice teammate that can tank special hits from foes like Greninja and Flutter Mane while also setting Stealth Rock and spreading paralysis with Thunder Wave. Porygon2 is a good defensive wall that is able to tank hits from Ogerpon formes, Gouging Fire, and Ceruledge while also checking them with Foul Play. Porygon2 also pressures Flying-types like Corviknight, Dragonite, and Mandibuzz with Discharge and Ice Beam. Indeedee doesn't like hazards, so Braviary is a great option that can remove hazards with Defog while taking out foes like Lokix and Hisuian Samurott with Brave Bird and Close Combat, respectively. Terapagos is another option due to its colorful moveset, including BoltBeam coverage that can take out Skarmory, Garchomp, and Landorus, and it can also remove hazards for the team with Rapid Spin. Terapagos's signature move Tera Starstorm allows Terapagos to dent bulky Pokemon. Loaded Dice Cinccino can be a physical sweeper and hazard remover with Tidy Up. Cinccino also has great coverage, including moves that can deal with Ground-, Water-, Flying-, Dragon-, and Ice-types with Bullet Seed, Triple Axel, and Rock Blast.
[OTHER OPTIONs]
Shadow ball can be run instead of Trick to hit Gholdengo and Ceruledge, helping in the Ghost matchup. Doing so will lose Indeedee the ability to Choice-lock walls like Corviknight and Ting-Lu, which can be a pain to break through.
