With the title of being one of Rock's fastest attackers, Iron Boulder can make use of Swords Dance and a Z-Move to become a threatening wallbreaker versus the likes of Fighting- and Steel-types such as Iron Hands with Shattered Psyche and Archaludon with All-Out Pummeling. Iron Boulder can use Shattered Psyche to tear through Fighting- and Poison-types such as Great Tusk, Iron Hands, and Toxapex. Mighty Cleave and Close Combat complement each other, allowing Iron Boulder to deal with Volcarona, Hisuian Goodra, and Galarian Moltres. After a boost, All-Out Pummeling can even break the likes of Archaludon and Ting-Lu. Shuckle can easily set entry hazards to make it easier on Iron Boulder to set up and threaten defensive checks like Heatran. With its secondary Grass typing, Ogerpon-C can break through Water- and Ground-types like Hippowdon and Mega Swampert more easily while also being a secondary setup sweeper that pairs well with Iron Boulder. Mega Diancie, in conjunction with Iron Boulder, can break through Fighting and Dark teams with its Fairy typing and powerful Moonblast, being the best way to remove the likes of Mega Sableye. Thanks to its Fire typing, Hisuian Arcanine can assist in breaking through Steel- and Grass-types such as Gholdengo, Ferrothorn, and Tapu Bulu with Flare Blitz. Mega Aerodacty can assist in the matchup versus the likes of Excadrill once Sticky Web is set , assisting in removing the few foes that outspeed Iron Boulder.

With the title of being one of Rock's fastest attackers, Iron Boulder can make use of a Z Crystal (well its really due to SD, can mention SD and the Z crystal here tho so that the next sentence gets killed) and become a threatening wall breaker versus the likes of Fighting and Steel (can you name the poor targets that get OHKOed because of Z?). Making use of Swords Dance, on top of its powerful Attack stat, Iron Boulder makes quick work breaking through the likes of teams. Zen Headbutt being one of its powerful STAB Psychic attacks, Iron Boulder can utilize a Z Crystal to tear through the likes of Fighting- and Poison- type Pokemon such as Great Tusk, Iron Hands, or Toxapex. Its signature STAB in Mighty Cleave can tear through Flying-, Bug-, and Fire- type teams quite easily, even breaking through Steel- flyers such as Corviknight or Skarmory after a boost! Close Combat is an excellent Fighting coverage for Iron Boulder, allowing it to break through the likes of Goodra Hisui, Heatran, and other Steel types quite easily. (Since STAB move isnt really worth mentioning, can you instead pair how CC and Mighty Cleave complement each other to reduce the length of the analysis?) After a boost, Fightium Z Close Combat can even break the likes of Archaludon! With all this power, can teammates like Shuckle and Kleavor can easily setup hazards, paving the way to make it easier on Iron Boulder to setup and threaten Defensive checks (prioritize webs imo, Kleav is a bit niche anyway so we can get rid of it). Ogerpon Cornerstone with its secondary Grass- typing can break through Water- and Ground- type teams (can you mention some checks to IB like Hippow or the water/grounds?) more easily while also being a secondary setup sweeper that pairs well with Iron Boulder. Mega Diancie, in conjunction with Iron Boulder, can break through Fighting- and Dark- type teams with its Fairy typing and powerful Moonblast (mention the annoying phys walls you deal with, maybe one of these is Mega Sabby). Arcanine Hisuian with its neutral Fire- typing can assist in taking a hit from Meowcarada and returning a hit with Flare Blitz, assisting the Grass match up much easier (Rock is never winning vs grass reow, unless you use M.Aero. Can this be more realistic?).
