- Mach Punch / Thunder Punch
- U-turn

Infernape has risen to the top of BDSP OU as a standout wallbreaker with high Speed, U-turn, and priority. Its STAB combination allows Infernape to deal with common defensive Pokemon such as Heatran and Skarmory. Mach Punch lets it threaten Weavile and Cloyster. Thunder Punch is an alternative that hits Azumarill. U-turn is good coverage against Starmie and Slowbro and can be used to bring in other teammates on unfavorable matchups like Gliscor. Scizor and Rotom-W are fantastic partners that form a dangerous VoltTurn core. Since Infernape forces so many switches into threats like Latios and Manaphy, it can bring in Scizor and Rotom-W against them with U-turn and keep up momentum. Wallbreakers such as Weavile and Mamoswine appreciate Infernape’s U-turn giving them free entry. Starmie threatens roadblocks such as Latias and Gliscor.

the current state of this spotlight is very cut and dry. these moves hit these pokemon and infernape likes these pokemon because they beat these other pokemon. what I'm more so looking for is why infernape is one of the more relevant breakers around (speed, priority, pivoting), the pokemon that benefit from its presence, and the pokemon that can help infernape perform its role most effectively

address these points and notify me when done

Infernape has risen towards the top of BDSP OU as a standout wallbreaker with Choice Band, using its high Speed, pivoting capabilities, and priority well i would prefer this say "to do x y z", this doesn't really give any depth. Its STAB combination allows it to deal with many defensive Pokemon such as Heatran and Skarmory. Mach Punch lets it threaten Weavile and Cloyster. Thunder Punch is an alternative move that hits Azumarill. U-turn is good coverage against Starmie and Slowbro and can be used to pivot in other teammates on unfavorable matchups like Gliscor so they deal with them better. Scizor and Rotom-W are fantastic partners with Infernape since they can form a dangerous VoltTurn core. i would elaborate that since infernape forces a lot of switches of its own its great to pair with other pivot users to keep up momentum They can switch into threats such as Alakazam, Latios, and Manaphy, then pivot out against threats to them like Heatran and Breloom for Infernape to handle them not gp but this sentence has some weird structure. Wallbreakers such as Weavile and Mamoswine appreciate Infernape’s U-turn, pivoting them in better positions against Pokemon it cannot threaten such as Garchomp and Dragonite the important part about these pokemon is that they're really frail and take advantage of infernape's uturn to get free switches. Starmie can offensive check faste threats such as Gengar, letting Infernape take further advantage of its excellent Speed this part just doesn't make sense. starmie can check a fast pokemon making infernape good at being fast. like i'd rather just see this say that starmie threatens roadblocks to infernape like gliscor and latias (probably safer since the vote will be ongoing for latios).

1/1 pending implementation but msg me if u have any concerns or questions avg

Since Infernape forces so many switches into threats like Latias and Manaphy, its U-turn brings Scizor and Rotom-W into them to use their pivot moves and keep up momentum it can bring in Scizor and Rotom-W against them with U-turn and keep up momentum.(Is this what you meant? This sentence is confusing.) Wallbreakers such as Weavile and Mamoswine appreciate Infernape’s U-turn giving them free entry due to their frailty. Starmie threatens roadblocks such as Latias and Gliscor.

GP 1/1
