[OVERVIEW]

Automatically setting Psychic Terrain makes Indeedee-F a threatening Choice Scarf user in the NU metagame. Not fearing priority moves, such as First Impression and Sucker Punch, it is free to spam a nuke in Expanding Force, which 2HKOes many top-tier threats like Talonflame, Rotom-C, and Mudsdale. Additionally, coverage moves like Mystical Fire and Dazzling Gleam effectively hit its Steel- and Dark-type checks like Copperajah, Escavalier, and Guzzlord. Along with its coverage, it also gets access to support moves in Healing Wish and Trick. Indeedee-F does face some competition from other Choice Scarf users like Rotom-C and Heliolisk, both of which outspeed it and provide much more utility to the team as pivots. Furthermore, even with Expanding Force, it struggles to deal enough damage to special walls that have recovery like Snorlax, Vaporeon, and Sylveon, with the latter two being able to stall out Psychic Terrain turns via Protect. Due to its limited coverage, Indeedee-F struggles to revenge kill specific threats like Drapion and Stakataka.

Set Details
====

Mystical Fire hits Steel-types like Stakataka, Copperajah, Escavalier, and Doublade, while Dazzling Gleam nails Dark-types like Guzzlord and Scrafty, which wall Expanding Force. Healing Wish is a great way to revitalize teammates that have worn themselves down, whereas Trick cripples specially defensive Pokemon like Snorlax, Vaporeon, and Sylveon. A Modest nature is preferred, as a Timid nature only lets Indeedee-F outspeed Choice Scarf Passimian compared to other Choice Scarf users.

While it can threaten most Steel-types with Mystical Fire, Indeedee-F appreciates a partner like Silvally-Ground, Passimian, or Salazzle to whittle them down into Expanding Force range or just take them out. Similarly, Dark-types like Guzzlord and Drapion can take advantage of Indeedee-F locking itself into Expanding Force. Physically defensive teammates like Vileplume and Mudsdale can switch in on these threats. Silvally-Ground and Copperajah are great Healing Wish recipients, and walls like Sylveon, Vaporeon, and Snorlax that can tank an Expanding Force and get their HP back via Wish or Rest with little issue are crippled by Trick. Toxicroak works well as a partner here to easily dispose of such threats, and it also enjoys Healing Wish support should it get statused or low on HP.

Other Options

Choice Specs is a viable option to make Indeedee-F a powerful wallbreaker. However, this set is susceptible to getting outsped and OHKOed by threats like Silvally-Ground and Tauros. Hyper Voice can be used as a secondary STAB move and 2HKOes Drapion, but only at the cost of one of Indeedee-F's utility or coverage moves.

Checks and Counters
====

**Steel-types**: Should Indeedee-F be locked into Expanding Force or Dazzling Gleam, Steel-types like Stakataka, Copperajah, Escavalier, and Silvally-Steel can take advantage of this and pressure it and its team. Copperajah and Stakataka can also use opportunities like this to set up Stealth Rock. However, all of them need to be wary of switching into Mystical Fire, besides Stakataka, which merely gets tickled by it.

**Specially Defensive Walls**: Sylveon, Vaporeon, Mantine, and Snorlax are just a few special walls that don't mind coming in on any of Indeedee-F's attacks, since they can eat two hits and reliably restore their HP, but, if Indeedee-F predicts this, they can be crippled by Trick.

**Dark-types**: Guzzlord and Grimmsnarl are immune to Expanding Force and eat up Mystical Fire, but neither one wants to take a Dazzling Gleam, however.

[OVERVIEW]

In a metagame where Psychic-types are scarce, Indeedee-F thrives due to its decent Special Attack and Speed stats combined with its ability in Psychic Surge. With said ability, it doesn't fear priority moves like Sucker Punch and First Impression from Pokemon like Toxicroak and Sirfetch'd, respectively. It also helps its own cause by powering up Expanding Force with Psychic Terrain to deal more damage than any of its other Psychic STAB moves. (Combine these two sentences; something like "it doesn't fear priority moves like x and y and has an incredibly spammable nuke of a STAB attack" works) Additionally, it has access to coverage moves like Mystical Fire and Dazzling Gleam that let it effectively hit its Steel- and Dark-type checks like Copperajah, Escavalier, and Drapion. Similarly, support moves like Healing Wish and Trick make Indeedee-F even more valuable to help out its team. Indeedee-F does face some competition from other Choice Scarf users like Rotom-C and Heliolisk, both of which outspeed it and provide much more defensive utility to a team. (imo this is worth highlighting) Furthermore, even with a boosted Expanding Force, it struggles to deal deadly damage to walls that can restore their HP like Snorlax, Vaporeon, and Sylveon. (definitely should work in something about the latter two stalling out Terrain turns with Protect) Indeedee-F also finds itself being cautious with move prediction, since picking the wrong one can result in one of its teammates having to pay the price. (well, it's a Choice-locked wallbreaker/revenge killer, so that's pretty implicit. Maybe focus instead on how Indeedee-F's poor bulk can limit its chances to come in and do what it wants to)

Psychic Terrain boosted Expanding Force is Indeedee-F's strongest STAB by far and deals heavy damage to most of the tier's top threats like Talonflame, Rotom-C, and Silvally-Ground. (ideally the overview would be where you talk about the fact that this move is indeed strong; I'd just instead say "yes this move lets you revenge kill x, y, and z offensive Pokemon very reliably) Mystical Fire hits Steel-types like Copperajah, Escavalier, and Doublade, while Dazzling Gleam nails Dark-types like Guzzlord and Drapion that would otherwise wall Expanding Force. Healing Wish gives one of Indeedee-F's teammates a second chance in a battle, while Trick cripples one of the few specially defensive Pokemon that NU has to offer like Snorlax, Vaporeon, and or Sylveon. (feel like one of these examples should be a Steel-type? even if it's one as dire as like Gunfisk lol)

While it can hit Steel-types with Mystical Fire, Indeedee-F appreciates a partner like Silvally-Ground, Passimian, or Salazzle to whittle them down into Expanding Force range or just flat-out eliminate them. Similarly, Dark-types like Guzzlord and Drapion can take advantage of an Indeedee-F being stuck in Expanding Force. Therefore, teammates like Vileplume and Mudsdale can switch in on these threats. Mudsdale is able to provide Stealth Rock support for Indeedee-F's team to pressure opposing teams further. Walls like Sylveon, Vaporeon, and Snorlax can eat up one Expanding Force and get their HP back via Wish or Rest with little issue. Toxicroak works well as a partner here to easily dispose of such threats; it also works well as a recipient of Indeedee-F's Healing Wish should it get statused or low on HP. (I'd probably make the point about Healing Wish pretty early on personally and note potential recipients of it then. You're still good to have this mention here of course, but an early mention with Pokemon like Silvally-Ground is ideal in my eyes.)

Choice Specs is a viable option to turn Indeedee-F into a powerful wallbreaker. However, it would be susceptible to getting OHKOed by slower threats than its Choice Scarf variant like Passimian Silvally-Ground (multi doesn't OHKO but this is still a better mention meta relevance-wise me thinks) and Tauros.

**Steel-types**: Should Indeedee-F be stuck in Expanding Force or Dazzling Gleam, Steel-types like Copperajah, Escavalier, and Silvally-Steel can take advantage and pressure Indeedee-F's team. (probably should mention Copperajah can set Stealth Rock on these opportunities its given) They all need to be careful and not switch into Mystical Fire, however.

**Specially Defensive Walls**: Sylveon, Vaporeon, and Snorlax are just a few special walls that don't mind coming in on any of Indeedee-F's attacks since they can eat at least two hits and still reliably restore their HP. They don't want to be on the receiving end of a Trick, however.

**Dark-types**: Guzzlord and Drapion are immune to Expanding Force and don't take much from Mystical Fire, making Indeedee-F a potential Pokemon to switch into. Neither one wants to take a Dazzling Gleam, though.

With said ability, it doesn't fear priority moves like Sucker Punch and First Impression from Pokemon like Toxicroak and Sirfetch'd, respectively and has an incredibly spammable nuke of a STAB attack (Try to rewrite this intro a little because it's not the scarcity of Psychic-types that makes Indeedee-F worthwhile, it's the Psychic Surge + Expanding Force combo. There's no need to mention its stats as much as you should focus on how strong this combo is. The nuke point is good, just focus on why this nuke makes cleaning easy, which is another niche compared to other cleaners / Choice Scarf users thanks to Indeedee-F being immune to priority. Focus less on the dex data here and try to rewrite these first two sentences with these points in mind because that's really the pulp of the mon we should focus on). Additionally, it has access to coverage moves like Mystical Fire and Dazzling Gleam that let it effectively hit its Steel- and Dark-type checks like Copperajah, Escavalier, and Drapion Guzzlord (Drapion is a bad example when STAB Hyper Voice does much more to it). Similarly, support moves like Healing Wish and Trick make Indeedee-F even more valuable to help out its team. Indeedee-F does face some competition from other Choice Scarf users like Rotom-C and Heliolisk, both of which outspeed it and provide much more defensive utility to a the team as pivots (Rotom-C has some good immunities but Heliolisk isn't more defensive than Indeedee-F so I think you meant to allude to their general utility as pivots, as a Choice Scarfer with pivoting is usually a really great combo that this mon can't compete with). Furthermore, even with a boosted Expanding Force, it struggles to deal deadly damage to walls that can restore their HP like Snorlax, Vaporeon, and Sylveon, with the latter two being able to stall out Psychic Terrain turns with Protect. As a revenge killer, Indeedee-F finds its chances of coming in to do what it wants to do very limited due to its poor bulk. (Indeedee-F really isn't that frail and can actually survive strong hits like Silvally-Ground's Multi-Attack so I don't really get the point of this especially when it's bulkier than a lot of our other viable revenge killers. This last point instead should be on its limited coverage and how it can be challenging to revenge kill when threats like Drapion and Stakataka are still around)

Psychic Terrain boosted Expanding Force lets Indeedee-F revenge kill most of the tier's top threats like Talonflame, Rotom-C, and Silvally-Ground.(Fluff, STAB attacks never get their own point here + this is already going to be covered as the main selling point for the overview) Mystical Fire hits Steel-types like Copperajah, Escavalier, and Doublade, while Dazzling Gleam nails Dark-types like Guzzlord and Drapion Scrafty (see above) that would otherwise wall Expanding Force. Healing Wish gives one of Indeedee-F's teammates a second chance in a battle. (move the Trick sentence from OO to here) (You slash Modest with Timid but don't explain why or what for; give some examples––preferably with a calc or two––that explain the merits of each nature)
(The Healing Wish point is just dex data; the reader knows that healing wish brings a teammate back to full health / back into action. You should instead sell it over Trick in the sense that Healing Wish is a great option when using teammates that tend to wear themselves down through trades whereas Trick is a safe way to debilitate switch-ins while not having to guess the right coverage attack.)

No QC for now, I'll give this another check after you implemented everything so just give me a ping and I'll give it another look asap. In short, there's too much simple information given in some sections that could be chalked up as dex info or not relevant enough to the set / the comparisons you made. I liked a lot of what you had to write but with the current meta, like the intro of the a new counter in Stakataka, I think there's new points to make.

With a strong combination of its ability in Psychic Surge and strong STAB move in Expanding Force, Indeedee-F becomes a scary Choice Scarf user in the NU metagame. With said ability, Indeedee-F doesn't fear priority moves like First Impression and Sucker Punch and can spam its nuke of a STAB move; making it capable of 2HKOing many top tier threats in the metagame like Talonflame, Rotom-C, and Mudsdale. Additionally, it has access to coverage moves like Mystical Fire and Dazzling Gleam that let it effectively hit its Steel- and Dark-type checks like Copperajah, Escavalier, and Guzzlord. Similarly, support moves like Healing Wish and Trick make Indeedee-F even more valuable to help out its team. Indeedee-F does face some competition from other Choice Scarf users like Rotom-C and Heliolisk, both of which outspeed it and provide much more utility to the team as pivots. Furthermore, even with a boosted Expanding Force, it struggles to deal deadly damage to walls that can restore their HP like Snorlax, Vaporeon, and Sylveon, with the latter two being able to stall out Psychic Terrain turns with Protect. Due to its limited coverage, Indeedee-F can struggle to revenge kill (no hyphen) if threats like Drapion and Stakataka.

Mystical Fire hits Steel-types like Copperajah, Escavalier, and Doublade, while Dazzling Gleam nails Dark-types like Guzzlord and Scrafty that would otherwise wall Expanding Force. Healing Wish is a great way to revitalize a teammate that has worn itself down over time, whereas Trick cripples one of the few specially defensive Pokemon that NU has to offer like Snorlax, Vaporeon, and Sylveon (wording felt misleading, not sure exactly what you're trying to say here only because there are a lot of special walls in NU but if you meant switch-ins to Indeedee then just keep it with these removals). A Modest nature is preferred for the extra firepower (like for always 2HKOing Dhelmise, or a similar example that you see fit) while a Timid nature only lets Indeedee-F outspeed Choice Scarf Passimian compared to other Choice Scarf users. (good example for the Timid tradeoff, exactly what I was looking for)

While it can threaten some Steel-types with Mystical Fire, Indeedee-F appreciates a partner like Silvally-Ground, Passimian, or Salazzle to whittle them down into Expanding Force range or just flat-out eliminate them. Similarly, Dark-types like Guzzlord and Drapion can take advantage of an Indeedee-F being stuck in Expanding Force. Therefore, teammates like Vileplume and Mudsdale can switch in on these threats. Mudsdale is able to provide Stealth Rock support for Indeedee-F's team to pressure opposing teams further. (Every sweeper enjoys SR support so this statement is just fluff. Unless you can find a target that is both vulnerable to SR and the extra 12% makes a roll into a guaranteed OHKO or so, just remove this point) Healing Wish recipients like Silvally-Ground and Copperajah make great teammates as well. Walls like Sylveon, Vaporeon, and Snorlax can eat up one Expanding Force and get their HP back via Wish or Rest with little issue. Toxicroak works well as a partner here to easily dispose of such threats; it also works well as a recipient of Indeedee-F's Healing Wish should it get statused or low on HP.

Other Options
====

Choice Specs is a viable option to turn Indeedee-F into a powerful wallbreaker. However, it would be susceptible to getting OHKOed by slower threats than its Choice Scarf variant like Silvally-Ground and Tauros. Hyper Voice can be used as a secondary STAB move option that can let it 2HKO Drapion at least, but this means that Indeedee-F must give up one of its much-needed coverage or utility (as AoA is plausible too) moves to do so.

Checks and Counters
====

**Steel-types**: Should Indeedee-F be stuck in Expanding Force or Dazzling Gleam, Steel-types like Copperajah, Escavalier, and Silvally-Steel can take advantage and pressure Indeedee-F's team. Copperajah can also use opportunities like this to set Stealth Rock. They all need to be careful to not switch into Mystical Fire, however.

**Specially Defensive Walls**: Sylveon, Vaporeon, and Snorlax are just a few special walls that don't mind coming in on any of Indeedee-F's attacks since they can eat at least two hits and still reliably restore their HP. They don't want to be on the receiving end of a Trick, however.

**Dark-types**: Guzzlord and Grimmsnarl are immune to Expanding Force and don't take much from Mystical Fire, making Indeedee-F a potential Pokemon to switch into. Neither one wants to take a Dazzling Gleam, though.

Thanks bro!

Oathkeeper Stakataka is not mentioned in the Steel-types section, and it is quite possibly the best counter to Indeedee-F available to us.
Yeah, my bad on that. Steels are mentioned a few times in this and it was bound to happen that I'd forget one lol.

Hyper Voice can be used as a secondary STAB move and can 2HKO 2HKOs Drapion at least, but Indeedee-F must give up one of its much-needed coverage or utility moves to use it. only at the cost of one of Indeedee-F's utility or coverage moves.

Checks and Counters
====

**Steel-types**: Should Indeedee-F be locked into Expanding Force or Dazzling Gleam, Steel-types like Stakataka, Copperajah, Escavalier, and Silvally-Steel can take advantage of this and pressure it and its team. Copperajah and Stakataka can also use opportunities like this to set up Stealth Rock. (It flows better. >) Even though they all switch into Expanding Force and Dazzling Gleam comfortably, all of them need to be careful to weary not to switch into Mystical Fire, besides Stakataka, which merely gets tickled by it.

**Specially Defensive Walls**: Sylveon, Vaporeon, Mantine, and Snorlax are just a few special walls that don't mind coming in on any of Indeedee-F's attacks, since they can eat at least two hits and still reliably restore their HP, (AC) but, if Indeedee-F predicts this, they can be crippled by a Trick. They don't want to be on the receiving end of Trick, however. (It flows better, once again.)

**Dark-types**: Guzzlord and Grimmsnarl are immune to Expanding Force and don't take much from eat up Mystical Fire, making Indeedee-F a potential Pokemon to switch into switch-in, (AC) but neither one wants to take a Dazzling Gleam, though.

[OVERVIEW]

Automatically setting Psychic Terrain makes Indeedee-F a threatening Choice Scarf user in the NU metagame. Not fearing priority moves, such as First Impression and Sucker Punch, it is free to spam a nuke in Expanding Force, which 2HKOes many top-tier threats like Talonflame, Rotom-C, and Mudsdale. Additionally, coverage moves like Mystical Fire and Dazzling Gleam effectively hit its Steel- and Dark-type checks like Copperajah, Escavalier, and Guzzlord. Along with its coverage, it also gets access to support moves in Healing Wish and Trick. Indeedee-F does face some competition from other Choice Scarf users like Rotom-C and Heliolisk, both of which outspeed it and provide much more utility to the team as pivots. Furthermore, even with Expanding Force, it struggles to deal enough damage to special walls that have recovery like Snorlax, Vaporeon, and Sylveon, with the latter two being able to stall out Psychic Terrain turns via Protect. Due to its limited coverage, Indeedee-F struggles to revenge kill specific threats like Drapion and Stakataka.

Set Details

Mystical Fire hits Steel-types like Stakataka, Copperajah, Escavalier, and Doublade, while Dazzling Gleam nails Dark-types like Guzzlord and Scrafty, which would wall Expanding Force. Healing Wish is a great way to revitalize teammates that have worn themselves down, whereas Trick cripples specially defensive Pokemon like Snorlax, Vaporeon, and Sylveon. A Modest nature is preferred, as a Timid nature only lets Indeedee-F outspeed Choice Scarf Passimian compared to other Choice Scarf users.

While it can threaten most Steel-types with Mystical Fire, Indeedee-F appreciates a partner like Silvally-Ground, Passimian, or Salazzle to whittle them down into Expanding Force range or just take them out. Similarly, Dark-types like Guzzlord and Drapion can also take advantage of Indeedee-F locking itself into Expanding Force. Physically defensive teammates like Vileplume and Mudsdale can switch in on these threats. Silvally-Ground and Copperajah are great Healing Wish recipients, and walls like Sylveon, Vaporeon, and Snorlax that can tank an Expanding Force and get their HP back via Wish or Rest with little issue are crippled by Trick. Toxicroak works well as a partner here to easily dispose of such threats, and it also enjoys Healing Wish support should it get statused or low on HP.
