[SET COMMENTS]
* This spread allows Primarina to beat Pokemon that it usually can't, such as Timid Weakness Policy Iron Crown and non-Agility Corviknight.
* Generally, the sequence against Iron Crown is to use Encore on the first turn to lock it into using Calm Mind, then use Icy Wind twice to lower its Speed so Primarina can lock it with Encore back into Calm Mind in the following turn, then use Moonblast once and use Encore once again, then alternate between Hydro Cannon and Encore, keeping the recharge turn and Life Orb damage in mind. In case Iron Crown uses Tachyon Cutter on the first turn, it activates Torrent on turn two, which allows Primarina to OHKO it with Hydro Cannon.
* This spread allows Primarina to survive a Poison Jab or Sludge Wave from Adamant Choice Band Urshifu formes and Timid Life Orb Landorus and then OHKO them with Moonblast or Icy Wind, respectively.
* An alternative EV spread of 56 HP / 192 Def / 8 SpA / 252 Spe lets Primarina bulk Jolly Choice Band Urshifu formes' attacks but not Adamant Choice Band variants, dropping that matchup in order to gain a more consistent Iron Crown matchup, since Primarina's higher Speed stat means it can outspeed Iron Crown after a single Icy Wind and threaten Special Attack Booster Energy variants with a Torrent-boosted Hydro Cannon if Iron Crown decides to go for an attack. This spread also allows Primarina to outspeed Ursaluna and OHKO it with Hydro Cannon.
* Against Spectrier, use Encore on turn one. If Spectrier attacks on turn one, use Hydro Cannon on turn two. If Spectrier uses a status move, use Icy Wind thrice with the main spread or twice with the alternative spread, then use Encore to lock Spectrier into a status move while dealing damage with Moonblast and Hydro Cannon.
* Moonblast allows Primarina to beat commonly used Dragon- and Fighting-type Pokemon, such as Roaring Moon, Dragapult, the Urshifu formes, and Iron Valiant.
* Since Primarina is weak to Poison-type or STAB attacks from foes such as Sneasler, Pecharunt, Volcanion, Hoopa, Raging Bolt, and Ogerpon-Wellspring, it is suggested to pair Primarina with Dragon- and Steel-type Pokemon such as Regidrago, Iron Crown, and Metagross to form the well-known Dragon / Fairy / Steel core.

(this is good, but mention sequence vs spectrier (u encore t1, if they attack t1 then hydro t2, if they use a status move then icy x3 if u are the main spread, and icy x2 if u are the altspread, then encore lock the spect to win))
* Primarina can utilize an alternative EV spread of 56 HP / 192 Def / 8 SpA / 252 Spe which bulks Jolly Choice Band Urshifu intead of Adamant Choice Band, dropping that matchup in order to gain a more consistent Spectrier and Iron Crown matchup, since its higher Speed stat means it can outspeed Iron Crown after a single Icy Wind and threaten Special Attack Booster Energy variants with a Torrent-boosted Hydro Cannon if it decides to go for Tachyon Cutter an attack.
* STAB-boosted Moonblast allows it to beat commonly used Dragon-type Pokemon, such as Regidrago, (ur not necessarily using moonblast for drago, u use prim's value as a fairy type for drago) Roaring Moon, Dragapult, Walking Wake, and Garchomp. (too many mentions here imo, remove 2 mentions then also add a fighting type mention and add urshifu and val)
* Since Primarina is weak to Poison types such as Sneasler and Pecharunt, it is suggested to pair it with Steel-type Pokemon like Metagross and Iron Crown. (anything else? you lose to volcanion, av hoopa, bolt, oger, etc so u want a dragon type as a partner. mention something about creating the dragon fairy of the infamous dragon fairy steel core. * pro tip here dont go by typing when writing these types of lines, look at the vr and look at what this mon loses to in this case prim, and find a type of mon that beats those mons)
