[SET COMMENTS]
Thanks to its great offensive typing, excellent coverage, and high Attack stat, Ceruledge makes for a good wallbreaker in the tier. Close Combat threatens Roaring Moon and Garganacl, while Shadow Sneak is used to pick off faster foes like Gengar and weakened foes like Iron Moth, Barraskewda, and opposing Ceruledge, making up for Ceruledge's mediocre Speed. Ceruledge appreciates being paired with entry hazard setters such as Sandy Shocks, Kommo-o, and Garchomp, which can put opposing Pokemon like Empoleon in range for Ceruledge to OHKO, as well as put opposing fast Pokemon in range for Shadow Sneak to OHKO. Faster foes like Roaring Moon, Meowscarada, and Azelf can threaten Ceruledge and force it out, so it pairs excellently with teammates like Great Tusk, Scream Tail, and Empoleon, which can wall these Pokemon, respectively. In return, Ceruledge can threaten their checks such as Scream Tail for Great Tusk and Heatran for Scream Tail. Pivots such as Manaphy, Meloetta, and Corviknight are also nice partners for Ceruledge, as they can bring it in on Pokemon it checks.

Thanks to a great offensive typing, excellent coverage, and a high Attack stat, Ceruledge is a very good wallbreaker in the tier. Desolate Land-Boosted Bitter Blade can OHKO most Pokemon in the tier after a Swords Dance. Poltergeist lets Ceruledge break through Scream Tail, Manaphy, and Well-Baked-Body Corviknight Manaphy, Kommo-o, and Well-Baked Body Corviknight after a Swords Dance you don't need poltergeist for scream tail, kommo-o is pretty relevant. Close Combat helps against Pokemon such as Roaring Moon and Garganacl OHKO's Roaring Moon and 2HKO's Garganacl with Life Orb, while Shadow Sneak is used to pick off faster foes like Gengar or weakened foes like Gengar, Barraskewda, (RC) and opposing Ceruledge, making up for Ceruledge's mediocre Speed. Life Orb sets boosts Ceruledge's already high damage add notable calcs, at the cost of being weak to entry hazards, while Heavy-Duty-Boots sets have less damage output, in return; they can deal with entry hazards they remove Ceruledge's weakness to hazards. due Due to chip from entry hazards and Life Orb wearing Ceruledge down it appreciates hazard removal from Pokemon such as Great tusk, Mandibuzz, and Corviknight. Ceruledge also appreciates Ground-type why ground types specifically? entry hazard setters such as Sandy Shocks and Garchomp, which can put the opposing team in range for Ceruledge to OHKO add calcs. Fast Pokemon such as Roaring Moon, Meowscarada, and Azelf. (RP) can threaten Ceruledge forcing it out, so it can pair excellently with Pokemon like Great tusk, Scream Tail, and Roaring Moon respectively who can wall these Pokemon roaring moon as a wall is a bad example here since it doesn't wall azelf that well, i'd either azelf or roaring moon to something else. Pivots such as Meloetta and Corviknight can also be nice partners for Ceruledge being able to bring it in on Pokemon it checks.
