- Wood Hammer / Grassy Glide

[SET COMMENTS]


Set Details
========
- With its immunity to Spore from Amoonguss and Brute Bonnet, Ogerpon-H is able to use Follow Me to support its allies while offensively putting pressure on common threats such as Rillaboom and Urshifu-R. Additionally, Ogerpon-H matches up well offensively into Calyrex-I and Zacian-C.
- Wood Hammer is the most common Grass-type STAB option on Ogerpon-H for its high and consistent damage output, notably OHKOing Urshifu-R. Grassy Glide can be used as a niche option when paired with Rillaboom for powerful priority in Grassy Terrain.
- This EV spread allows Ogerpon to almost always take a Tera Water Surging Strikes from Urshifu-R, a +1 Glacial Lance from most Calyrex-I, or a Choice Specs Draco Meteor from Timid Miraidon under Light Screen. It is also able to OHKO Rillaboom with Ivy Cudgel, outspeed Modest Landorus-I, and pick up an OHKO on both Calyrex formes with +1 Attack Tera Fire Ivy Cudgel.


Teambuilding
=========
- Incineroar can be very problematic for Ogerpon-H, reducing its damage output with Intimidate and Parting Shot and resisting its STAB moves. Other Dragon- and Fire-types such as Koraidon and Chi-Yu can also threaten Ogerpon-H while resisting its STAB combination.
- Ogerpon-C can outspeed and threaten Ogerpon-H with an OHKO with Ivy Cudgel, while other fast threats, including Calyrex-S and Miraidon, can outspeed and threaten it with huge damage. Ogerpon-H can also struggle against powerful spread damage from Calyrex-I and Terapagos, which ignore Follow Me.
- Ogerpon-H pairs well with Calyrex-S and Zamazenta-C, as it can protect both from powerful attacks and notably allows Calyrex-S to set up, while Calyrex-S is able to threaten Koraidon and Zamazenta threatens Incineroar for Ogerpon-H. Miraidon also benefits greatly from redirection from Ogerpon-H as well as its ability to threaten Rillaboom with an OHKO using Ivy Cudgel, while Miraidon can threaten Incineroar and Dragon-types for Ogerpon-H.
- Calyrex-I also greatly appreciates redirection support, helping it to set up Trick Room and sweep, while Calyrex-I can hit the Dragon-types that can stifle Ogerpon-H's offense and allows Ogerpon-H to threaten faster foes with Trick Room.
- Urshifu-R is a strong partner for Ogerpon-H, as together, they form a potent offensive core. Urshifu-R appreciates redirection to safely dish out huge damage, while it can threaten Incineroar and, with Tera Water, KO Ogerpon-C and Calyrex-S for Ogerpon-H. Rillaboom is another strong partner, as Follow Me support allows for it to safely pivot with U-turn while Rillaboom's Grassy Terrain bolsters Ogerpon-H's Grass-type moves and provides priority to Ogerpon-H's Grassy Glide.

[SET COMMENTS]

Make sure to keep the "Set Details", "Teambuilding", and the equal signs in your analysis!
Set Details
========
- Ogerpon-H functions to support through supports its partners with Follow Me, notably being able to redirect Spore from Amoonguss and Brute Bonnet, whilst maintaining a powerful offensive presence with its STABs, which are able to threaten the likes of Urshifu-R, Rillaboom and Calyrex-I (kind of a nitpick, but I feel like there could be a little more to be acknowledged for its good matchups, e.g. either one of the SwordFish Restricted Pokemon).
- Wood Hammer is the most common option on Ogerpon-H, for its high consistent damage output, notably OHKOing Urshifu-R. Horn Leech can be used to increase Ogerpon-H's survivability whilst still dealing sizeable damage (this should instead acknowledge the damage falloff between it and Wood Hammer), whilst Grassy Glide can be used as a niche option when paired with Rillaboom for powerful priority.
- This EV spread allows Ogerpon to almost always take a Tera Water Surging Strikes from Urshifu-R, a Choice Specs Draco Meteor from Miraidon under Light Screen (Modest Miraidon has 75% chance to OHKO, so perhaps specify Timid, which is 18.75% chance) and a +1 Glacial Lance from non max Attack most Calyrex-I, whilst OHKOing Rillaboom with Ivy Cudgel and outspeeding Modest Chi-Yu and (Pretty much all are Choice Scarf) Landorus-I. (Separate this bullet into 2 sentences please)


Teambuilding
=========
- Foes that can resist its STABs can be problematic for Ogerpon-H notably Dragon- and Fire-Types including Koraidon and Incineroar, the latter of which can also signifcantly weaken its damage output with Intimidate and Parting Shot.
- Ogerpon-C can outspeedthreaten outspeed and threaten Ogerpon-H with an OHKO with Ivy Cudgel, as can other fast threats including Calyrex-S and Miraidon which can win the damage trade (Not a fan of discussing damage trading in checks/counters, I would just keep Miraidon here and say it threatens an OHKO) against it. Ogerpon-H can also struggle against powerful spread damage from Calyrex-I and Terapagos (maybe add a brief statement in how this makes its role as a redirector less effective).
- Ogerpon-H pairs well with Calyrex-S and Zamazenta-C, as it can protect both from powerful attacks and allow them to sweep (Zamazenta doesn't sweep, and mention helping Calyrex-S set up), whilst Calyrex-S is able to threaten Koraidon and Zamazenta threatens Incineroar for Ogerpon-H. Miraidon also benefits greatly from redirection from Ogerpon-H, as well as its ability to threaten Rillabom Rillaboom with an OHKO using Ivy Cudgel.
- Urshifu-R is a strong partner for Ogerpon-H, as together they form a potent Fire / Water / Grass offensive core. whilst Urshifu-R appreciates redirection to safely dish out huge damage, as does another strong partner in Rillaboom as it allows for a safe pivot with U-Turn whilst Rillaboom's Grassy Terrain bolsters Ogerpon's Grass Type Grass-type moves.

(Add another bullet for Calyrex-I, it is a very common partner for it, and redirection helps with Trick Room gameplans)

[SET COMMENTS]


Set Details
========
- Ogerpon-H supports its partners with Follow Me, notably being able to redirect Spore from Amoonguss and Brute Bonnet, whilst maintaining a powerful offensive presence with its STABs, which are able to threaten the likes of Urshifu-R and Rillaboom and matching up well into Calyrex-I and Zacian-C among other restricteds This is fluff.
- Wood Hammer is the most common Grass-type STAB option on Ogerpon-H, for its high consistent damage output, notably OHKOing Urshifu-R. Horn Leech can be used to increase Ogerpon-H's survivability, but is unable to reach the power of Wood Hammer, whilst Removed from set Grassy Glide can be used as a niche option when paired with Rillaboom for powerful priority in Grassy Terrain Grassy Glide is only a priority move when Grassy Terrain is up so this needs to be mentioned.
- Even though it is an obvious item, you should have a bullet point to briefly mention what the mask does
- This EV spread allows Ogerpon to almost always take a Tera Water Surging Strikes from Urshifu-R, a Choice Specs Draco Meteor from Timid Miraidon under Light Screen and a +1 Glacial Lance from most Calyrex-I Move this to after the Urshifu-R calc to group physical defensive, special defensive, and offensive calcs together. It is also able to OHKO (AS) Rillaboom with Ivy Cudgel and while outspeeding Modest Landorus-I.
- Like the item bullet point you do need one for Tera Fire as well, you could include an offensive calc with Tera Fire here


Teambuilding
=========
- Foes that can resist its STABs can be problematic for Ogerpon-H notably Dragon- and Fire-Types including Koraidon and Incineroar, the latter of which can also signifcantly weaken its damage output with Intimidate and Parting Shot.
- Ogerpon-C can outspeed and threaten Ogerpon-H with an OHKO with Ivy Cudgel, as can other fast threats including Calyrex-S and Miraidon which can threaten it with huge damage against it. Ogerpon-H can also struggle against powerful spread damage from Calyrex-I and Terapagos, which also reduces its ability to support through redirection.
- Ogerpon-H pairs well with Calyrex-S and Zamazenta-C, as it can protect both from powerful attacks, and notably allowing Calyrex-S to set up, whilst Calyrex-S is able to threaten Koraidon and Zamazenta threatens Incineroar for Ogerpon-H. Miraidon also benefits greatly from redirection from Ogerpon-H, as well as its ability to threaten Rillaboom with an OHKO using Ivy Cudgel. Mention how Miraidon benefits Ogerpon-H
- Calyrex-I also greatly appreciates redirection support, helping it to set up Trick Room and sweep. Like the above comment, mention how Calyrex-I can benefit Ogerpon-H
- Urshifu-R is a strong partner for Ogerpon-H, as together they form a potent Fire / Water / Grass offensive typing core I don't think GP like this to be expressed in this way. Urshifu-R appreciates redirection to safely dish out huge damage, as does another strong partner in Rillaboom as it allows for a safe pivot with U-Turn whilst Rillaboom's Grassy Terrain bolsters Ogerpon's Grass-type moves. You also need to mention what exactly do Urshifu-R and Rillaboom do for Ogerpon-H

Set Details
========
- Ogerpon-H supports its partners with Follow Me, notably being able to redirect Spore from Amoonguss and Brute Bonnet, whilst maintaining a powerful offensive presence with its STABs, which are able to threaten the likes of Urshifu-R and Rillaboom and matching up well into Calyrex-I and Zacian-C. (the content here is good but it reads kinda robotic. I would prob reword to something like this: "With its immunity to Spore from Amoonguss and Brute Bonnet, Ogerpon-H is able to use Follow Me to support its allies while offensively putting pressure on common threats such as Rillaboom and Urshifu-R". Then mention Restricteds in following sentence)
- Wood Hammer is the most common Grass-type STAB option on Ogerpon-H, for its high consistent damage output, notably OHKOing Urshifu-R. Grassy Glide can be used as a niche option when paired with Rillaboom for powerful priority in Grassy Terrain.
- Hearthflame Mask is a forced item for Ogerpon-H, although it does significantly boost Ogerpon-H's damage output.
- This EV spread allows Ogerpon to almost always take a Tera Water Surging Strikes from Urshifu-R, a +1 Glacial Lance from most Calyrex-I and a Choice Specs Draco Meteor from Timid Miraidon under Light Screen . It is also able to OHKO Rillaboom with Ivy Cudgel and while outspeeding outspeed Modest Landorus-I.
- Tera Fire is forced for Ogerpon-H, though it notably allows it to pick up an OHKO on both Calyrex formes with Ivy Cudgel.


Teambuilding
=========
- Foes that can resist its STABs can be problematic for Ogerpon-H notably Dragon- and Fire-Types including Koraidon and Incineroar, the latter of which can also signifcantly weaken its damage output with Intimidate and Parting Shot. (this whole bullet reads kinda weird, can you try and clean it up a bit)
- Ogerpon-C can outspeed and threaten Ogerpon-H with an OHKO with Ivy Cudgel, as can other fast threats including Calyrex-S and Miraidon which can threaten it with huge damage against it. Ogerpon-H can also struggle against powerful spread damage from Calyrex-I and Terapagos, which ignore Follow Me also reduces its ability to support through redirection.
- Ogerpon-H pairs well with Calyrex-S and Zamazenta-C, as it can protect both from powerful attacks, and notably allowing Calyrex-S to set up, whilst Calyrex-S is able to threaten Koraidon and Zamazenta threatens Incineroar for Ogerpon-H. Miraidon also benefits greatly from redirection from Ogerpon-H, as well as its ability to threaten Rillaboom with an OHKO using Ivy Cudgel, while Miraidon can threaten Incineroar and other problematic foes for Ogerpon-H. (mention Miraidon beats the dragons you mention above)
- Calyrex-I also greatly appreciates redirection support, helping it to set up Trick Room and sweep, whilst Calyrex-I can hit the Dragon-Types that can stifle Ogerpon-H's offense. (TR also makes the faster Pokemon easier to KO, be sure to bring that up)
- Urshifu-R is a strong partner for Ogerpon-H, as together they form a potent offensive typing core. Urshifu-R appreciates redirection to safely dish out huge damage, while it can hit Incineroar for Ogerpon-H, as does another strong partner in Rillaboom as it allows for a safe pivot with U-Turn whilst Rillaboom's Grassy Terrain bolsters Ogerpon's Grass-type moves and can provide priority to Ogepron-H's Grassy Glide. (again I would appreciate if you could try and clear this up. Also mention Urshifu-R beating Terapagos and OHKOing Ogerpon-C and CSR after tera.)
