Cycle 17: Cinderace
Cinderace has been making a standout appearance recently as an offensive pivot that fits on a wide variety of team structures. This is because of its excellent ability to generate momentum for its teammates while also controlling hazards on the field extremely effectively. Not only that, it’s surprisingly hard to switch into, with a majority of would be checks such as Garchomp and Landorus-T being crippled by Will-O-Wisp, along with its vast array of coverage options in High Jump Kick and Gunk Shot to hit Heatran, Moltres, and Mega Diancie. Its defensive utility should not be undermined either, as it can realistically switch into Gholdengo, Volcarona, and Calm Mind Hatterene short term and ease the burden off of these threats. What ideas will you come up with for Cinderace?
