Set Description
=============
Galarian Moltres is a bulky attacker that stacks boosts from Berserk and Nasty Plot to rip through foes. Endure + Custap Berry allows it to take a hit from frail offensive Pokemon, such as Choice item Galarian Darmanitan and Pheromosa, and OHKO back the next turn with +1 Special Attack thanks to Berserk. Although Air Slash has better accuracy, Hurricane is preferred because it has better odds versus Assault Vest Urshifu-S Nasty Plot allows Galarian Moltres to outboost Pokemon such as non-Toxic Zygarde and non-Choice Specs Volcanion.

EVs
=============
The EVs put into HP, Defense, and Special Defense allow Galarian Moltres to survive a Choice Specs-boosted Thunderbolt from Rotom formes and an Choice Band-boosted Outrage from Jolly Haxorus. The remaining EVs are put into Special Attack for maximum damage output, as Galarian Moltres does not get much benefit from extra Speed due to Custap Berry.

Usage Tips
=============

Against Pokemon that cannot threaten to KO Galarian Moltres back, such as Assault Vest Urshifu-S, Necrozma, and Rillaboom, you should just attack Turn 1. One notable exception to this is against Sitrus Berry Celesteela, where Galarian Moltres must Nasty Plot twice. Against a foe that threatens to OHKO Galarian Moltres, such as Galarian Darmanitan, Endure allows it to take the hit and OHKO back. Sometimes, against Pokemon that have the option of OHKOing Galarian Moltres or not, like Choice Specs Porygon-Z with Trick, Galarian Moltres has two options: use Endure against a move that would otherwise OHKO, or use an attacking move to save Endure for the next turn, predicting that the foe will play around it. This leads to many of Galarian Moltres's matchups being coinflips, such as Volcarona. Despite the type advantage, Galarian Moltres's matchup against Volcarona is highly variant, relying on predicting when Volcarona will use Quiver Dance to set up with Nasty Plot, predicting Substitutes with Fiery Wrath, and hitting Hurricane.

[STRATEGY COMMENTS]
Other Options
=============
Galarian Moltres can run an anti-Custap Berry Weakness Policy set with Sucker Punch over Endure. Without the Custap Berry, it is much more susceptible to being OHKOed but can get some surprise KOs if it is hit with a super effective move that would normally 2HKO, such as a Dazzling Gleam from Choice Scarf Togekiss.

Set Description
=============
When using Moltres-Galar, the goal is to stack boosts from Nasty Plot and Berserk and OHKO opponents with one of Moltres-G's STAB attacks, (this should probably be mentioned in the Usage Tips section) with Hurricane used because of the base power. To help with this, Moltres-G runs Endure, which allows Moltres-G to reliably get down to 25% health, so Custap Berry can activate, allowing it to outspeed and KO Pokemon such as Darmanitan-Galar and Naganadel. live any given attack and the Custap Berry, which allows Moltres-G to go first when below 25% of its health, allowing Moltres-G to live a hit from frail offensive Pokemon, such as Choiced Darmanitan-Galar or Naganadel, and OHKO back the next turn with +1 attack from its Berserk ability. (Talk about the other 3 moves in order here. Hurricane and Fiery Wrath are for dual stabs, with hurricane being used for power, and nasty plot allowing it to break opponents, especially with berserk and custap).

EVs
=============
The EVs allow Moltres-G spread on Moltres-G allows for general bulk, allowing Moltres-G to live a Choice Specs Thunderbolt from Rotom and a Choice Band Outrage from Jolly Haxorus. The remaining EVs are put into Special Attack for maximum damage output, as Moltres-G does not get much benefit from extra Speed, especially since Custap Berry allows it to move first anyway.

Usage Tips
=============
For Moltres-G, some matchups, like against Naganadel or Urshifu, are quite straightforward - these Pokemon do not threaten OHKOs, and Moltres-G can OHKO back, provided it hits Hurricane against Urshifu. Against Pokemon that cannot threaten OHKOs and you threaten to OHKO back, like Urshifu or Naganadel, you should just attack turn one. (This is more simplified with less padding) But for other matchups, such as against Choice Specs Porygon-Z, Moltres-G and Porygon-Z have more than one option per turn. Porygon-Z’s first option is to Trick their Choice Specs away, locking Moltres-G into a potential Endure or powering up a potential Fiery Wrath into a guaranteed 2HKO and losing the ability to OHKO with Hyper Beam. The other option is to use Hyper Beam, which OHKOs Moltres-G, but, if Moltres-G Endures, it will be able to alternate attacking and Enduring on Hyper Beams until Porygon-Z is KOed. (You need to shorten this down to just say you can have 50/50s with endure or attacking with trick mons like Fini or PZ. You should also mention when to use endure (when a mon will ko you), and when to use nasty plot over just attacking).

[STRATEGY COMMENTS]
Other Options
=============
Moltres-G can run an anti-Custap Berry Weakness Policy set with Sucker Punch over Endure. Sucker Punch goes before Custap, and so prevents opposing Pokemon from using the Custap Berry’s effect. This set is not as widely useful, but has its place.

Let me know when you have implemented these changes and I'll have another look.

Set Description
=============
(Talk about it's general niche here, how it is a bulky mon that aquires boosts) Moltres-G runs Endure allowing Moltres-G to live any given attack with the Custap Berry, which allows Moltres-G to go first when below 25% of its health. Endure + Custap allows Moltres-G to take a hit from frail offensive Pokemon, such as Choiced Darmanitan-Galar or Naganadel, and OHKO back the next turn with +1 Special Attack from its Berserk ability. (This feels a bit longwinded, you can def shorten this) Hurricane and Fiery Wrath are run as STAB-boosted attacks. Although Hurricane has shaky accuracy, it has better odds versus Assault Vest Urshifu when compared to Air Slash due to its higher base power, so it is preferred. Nasty Plot allows Moltres-G to outboost setup Pokemon, such as Quiver Dance Volcorona .

EVs
=============
The EVs allow for Moltres-G to live a Choice Specs Thunderbolt from Rotom
Forms and a Choice Band Outrage from Jolly Haxorus. The remaining EVs are put into Special Attack for maximum damage output, as Moltres-G does not get much benefit from extra Speed, since due to Custap Berry allows it to move first.

Usage Tips
=============
Against Pokemon that cannot threaten OHKOs and you threaten to OHKO back, like
non-Assault Vest Urshifu or Naganadel (I would use a different example, since Naganadel with bulk for Eleki can live, and even with 0 bulk it isn't guaranteed), you should just attack turn one. When a foe threatens to OHKO Moltres-G, such as against Choice Item Darmanitan-G and Pheromosa, Endure allows Moltres-G to live the hit and OHKO back you should use Endure to get down to less than 25%, so your Custap Berry can activate turn 2 and you can outspeed and KO. Sometimes, such as against Pokemon that have the option of OHKOing Moltres-G or not, like Choice Specs Porygon-Z with Trick, Moltres-G has two options: Endure against a move that would otherwise OHKO or use an attacking move to save Endure for the next turn, predicting that the foe will play around Endure. (Mention the matchup against bulky pokemon that cannot ohko you (np into attack mainly)

[STRATEGY COMMENTS]
Other Options
=============
Moltres-G can run an anti-Custap Berry Weakness Policy set with Sucker Punch over Endure.
Sucker Punch goes before Custap, and so prevents opposing Pokemon from using the Custap Berry’s effect. (This feels a bit repetitive, also you should mention the flaws of this set over Custap)


It looks very weird sorry I couldn't figure out why it looks like this. I'll take one last look when this this implemented, at the earliest tomorrow because I'm going to sleep soon.

Set Description
=============
Moltres-G is a bulky attacker that stacks boosts from Berserk and Nasty Plot to rip through foes (I would say something about Custap here, along with using a bit different wording, its a little gruesome for me lol). Moltres-G runs Endure allowing Moltres-G it to live any given attack with the Custap Berry, allowing it to go first when below 25% of its health. Endure + Custap allows Moltres-G to take a hit from frail offensive Pokemon, such as Choiced Darmanitan-Galar or Naganadel (+1 252+ SpA Naganadel Draco Meteor vs. 248 HP / 76 SpD Moltres-Galar: 267-315 (69.7 - 82.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO, try to find a different example), and OHKO back the next turn with +1 Special Attack from its Berserk ability. Hurricane and Fiery Wrath are run as STAB-boosted attacks. Although Hurricane has shaky accuracy, it has better odds versus Assault Vest Urshifu when compared to Air Slash due to its higher base power, so Hurricane is preferred to Air Slash. Nasty Plot allows Moltres-G to outboost setup Pokemon, such as Quiver Dance Volcorona.

Usage Tips
=============
Against Pokemon that cannot threaten KOs onto Moltres-G back, like Assault Vest Urshifu, Necrozma or Rillaboom, you should just attack turn one. When a foe threatens to OHKO Moltres-G, such as against Choice Item Darmanitan-G, Endure allows Moltres-G to live the hit and OHKO back. (I would talk more broadly. If you think you would be KOed, use endure, and say that it could lead to some mindgames woo) Sometimes, such as against Pokemon that have the option of OHKOing Moltres-G or not, like Choice Specs Porygon-Z with Trick, Moltres-G has two options: Endure against a move that would otherwise OHKO or use an attacking move to save Endure for the next turn, predicting that the foe will play around Endure.

Without the Custap Berry, Moltres-G is much more susceptible to being OHKOed, but can get some surprise KOs if it is hit with a Super Effective move that would normally 2HKO, such as an Ice Punch from Sawk. (Not a good example, between CC doing more and Sturdy. Trust me I've played this mu, if only I hit hurricane.)

Let me know when these are implemented and I'll have another look.

(Clicking Hurricane -> Endure -> Hurricane wins with custap as long as you hit both. Instead say it helps the odds on that mu.)

(Meh this comes off as filler, this is fine however when giving examples in the hurricane case and why it is utilized) Although Hurricane has shaky accuracy, it has better odds versus Assault Vest Urshifu when compared to Air Slash due to its higher base power, so Hurricane is preferred. Nasty Plot allows Moltres-G to overpower Pokemon such as Quiver Dance Volcarona (This is a 50/50 against most Volcarona sets the only time this wouldn’t apply would be a kee Berry set granted u do have to hit a 70% accurate Hurricane ), non-Toxic Zygarde, and non-Choice Specs Volcanion.

This leads to many of Moltres-G’s matchups being coinflips.
- Id add that for the Celesteela Mu u need to Nasty Plot twice against Sitrus to win.
- Add how Volcarona is also a 50/50 as most newer readers will assume that Moltres always wins which isn’t the case.

Moltres-G can run an anti-Custap Berry Weakness Policy set with Sucker Punch over Endure. Without the Custap Berry, Moltres-G is much more susceptible to being OHKOed, but can get an unexpected burst of damage if it is hit with a Super Effective move that would normally 2HKO. The Weakness Policy activation can improve some matchups, such as against Choice Scarf Togekiss, but comes at the cost of losing against faster attackers like Darmanitan-Galar.

Moltres-G Galarian Moltres is a bulky attacker that stacks boosts from Berserk and Nasty Plot to rip through foes. Moltres-G Galarian Moltres runs Endure,(AC) allowing it to live any given attack with the Custap Berry,(RC) allowing and making it to go move first when below 25% of its health. Endure + Custap Berry allows Moltres-G Galarian Moltres to take a hit from frail offensive Pokemon, such as Choiced Band Darmanitan-Galar Galarian Darmanitan or Pheromosa,(RC) and OHKO back the next turn with +1 a boosted Special Attack from its Berserk ability. Although Hurricane has a shaky accuracy, it has better odds versus Assault Vest Urshifu-S/R (Which one are you referring to? "S" for Single Strike, or "R" for Rapid Strike?) when compared to Air Slash,(AC) due to its higher base power,(RC) so Hurricane is preferred to over Air Slash.

Usage Tips
=============
Against Pokemon that cannot threaten to KOs onto Moltres-G Galarian Moltres back, like Assault Vest Urshifu-S/R(Again, which one are you referring to?), Necrozma,(AC) or Rillaboom,(RC) you should just be able to attack turn one without having any problems. One notable exception to this is the Celesteela matchup, where Moltres-G Galarian Moltres must Nasty Plot twice in order to to beat Sitrus Berry Celesteela.

When a foe threatens to OHKO Moltres-G Galarian Moltres,(RC) such as Galarian Darmanitan, Endure will allows Moltres-G Galarian Moltres to live the hit and OHKO back.

This leads to many of Moltres-G Galarian Moltres’s matchups being coinflips,(RC) such as in the case of Volcarona(This part isn't necessary since you mention Volcarona right after). Despite the type advantage, Moltres-G Galarian Moltres’s matchup against Volcarona is highly variant, relying on predicting when the opponent uses Quiver Dance to Nasty Plot, predicting substitutes with Fiery Wrath, and being able to hitting Hurricanes onto Volcarona.

Moltres-G Galarian Moltres can run an anti-Custap Berry Weakness Policy set with Sucker Punch over Endure. However,(AC) Wwithout the usual Custap Berry, Moltres-G Galarian Molres (Just a reminder if you're gonna be doing another Galarian Pokemon, It should always be "Galarian [Pokemon]" and not "[Pokemon]-G")is much more susceptible to being OHKOed, but can get some surprise KOs if it is hit with a Super Effective move that would normally be a 2HKO onto Galarian Moltres, such as a Dazzling Gleam from Choice Scarf Togekiss.
