Gholdengo is a threatening setup sweeper on hazard stack teams due to its unique typing and ability. The combination of Shadow Ball and Make it Rain offers nearly perfect coverage. Recover ensures longevity, allowing it to switch into walls repeatedly, notably Corviknight and Blissey; alternatively, Focus Blast easily breaks Ting-Lu and Iron Treads. Air Balloon makes it immune to Ground-type attacks from Iron Treads and Great Tusk, allowing Gholdengo to comfortably switch into them if expecting Rapid Spin. Tera Water gives it a stronger defensive typing, notably against Koraidon and Iron Bundle. Tera Ghost is an option that removes the Ground-type weakness, while still retaining the ability to block Rapid Spin. Gholdengo requires support from entry hazard setters such as Ting-Lu, Glimmora, and Great Tusk. Iron Treads and Clodsire are solid entry hazard setters that also check Miraidon, which is a huge threat for Gholdengo. Physical walls like Toxapex and Alomomola are able to switch into and chip revenge killers like Koraidon and Chien-Pao via Rocky Helmet, making it easier for Gholdengo to sweep. Teammates such as Koraidon, Chien-Pao, Miraidon, and Iron Bundle make the most out of Gholdengo's wallbreaking power and ability to block entry hazard removal.

tera type: Fighting / Water / Ghost -still not sure this is optimal. Let's discuss this some more on Discord. My preference is Water / Ghost-

Gholdengo is a threatening setup sweeper on entry hazard stack teams due to its unique typing and ability. The combination of Shadow Ball and Make it Rain offers a near perfect coverage. Recover ensures longevity, allowing it to switch into walls repeatedly, notably Corviknight and Blissey. Alternatively, Focus Blast may be used to easily break Ting-Lu and Iron Treads. Air Balloon makes it immune to Ground-type attacks from Iron Treads and Great Tusk, allowing Gholdengo to comfortably switch into them if expecting Rapid Spin. Tera Fighting is used to weaken super effective hits from Chien-Pao and Kingambit, as well as Iron Treads and Great Tusk even if Air Balloon is used up. Tera Water gives it a stronger defensive typing, notably against Koraidon and Iron Bundle. Tera Ghost is an option that removes the Ground-type weakness, while still retaining the ability to block Rapid Spin. Gholdengo requires support from hazard setters such as Ting-Lu, Glimmora, Clodsire, Great Tusk, and Iron Treads. Teammates such as Koraidon, Chien-Pao, Miraidon, and Iron Bundle make the most out of Gholdengo's breaking power and ability to block entry hazard removal. -if running Gholdengo on a more balanced team, checks to public enemy #1 Miraidon and #2 Chien-Pao have to be mentioned. I also feel like more bulky sets with specific EVs that avoid 2HKOes from Great Tusk Headlong Rush / EQ or Iron Bundle Hydro Pump are very nice role compressors and should probably be mentioned-

Gholdengo requires support from entry hazard setters such as Ting-Lu, Glimmora, Great Tusk, Iron Treads, and Clodisre. Iron Treads and Clodsire in particular set up entry hazards while also checking Miraidon, who would otherwise pose harm to Gholdengo. Physical walls like Toxapex and Alomomola are able to switch into and chip revenge killers like Koraidon and Chien-Pao via Rocky Helmet, making it easier for Gholdengo to sweep.
