Garchomp serves as a dangerous cleaner due to Loaded Dice giving the possibility of boosting its Speed and dealing damage at the same time. It is able to leverage its great typing to find setup opportunities against Pokemon like Mega Charizard Y and unboosted Volcarona. Fire Fang gives it great coverage against Mega Scizor, Corviknight and Ferrothorn.


Garchomp fits best on bulky offense and hyper offense structures, where its combination of Swords Dance and Scale Shot can quickly overwhelm the opposing team if not taken care of properly. It uses its powerful combination of STAB moves to prey on a lot of bulky Pokemon like Toxapex, Dragonite, and Galarian Slowking, to the benefit of teammates like Volcarona, Raging Bolt, and Iron Valiant. Garchomp's typing leaves it weak to attacks from notable Pokemon like Tapu Lele, Iron Valiant, and Weavile while also not being able to do much against Landorus-T, which can come in very often to drop Garchomp's Attack via Intimidate. Mega Scizor is a great solution to this problem, as it can take hits from the aforementioned Pokemon while being able to consistently force Landorus-T out. Urshifu-R can also be a great teammate for it, as it can lure in Toxapex and Raging Bolt, which then get removed by Garchomp. The Defense drops from Scale Shot leave Garchomp vulnerable to strong priority users like Weavile, Dragonite, and Kingambit. Tapu Lele's Psychic Surge is able to circumvent this issue by making these priority moves unable to hit. In exchange, Garchomp is able to take care of Tapu Lele's counters like Gholdengo and Heatran. Tapu Lele is also able to eliminate Great Tusk, which also presents itself as a threat to Garchomp by being able to shrug off its hits easily and KO it in return with an Ice Spinner.

Garchomp has the potential to turn into don’t like this wording, try a more direct and simple replacement like “Garchomp serves as” a dangerous cleaner due to Loaded Dice giving the possibility of boosting its speed and dealing damage at the same time. this section is too short, expand on chomp’s traits as a cleaner like leveraging its typing to find setup opportunity vs chary and unboosted volcarona Fire Fang hits important targets like Ferrothorn, Mega Scizor and Corviknight, with the first two dying to a +2 hit. unnecessary


Garchomp's powerful combination of STABs allows it to pray on a majority of Pokemon like Clodsire, don’t think this is relevant, you have too many examples here anyway Toxapex, Dragonite, and Slowking-Galar, allowing to the benefit of teammates like Gholdengo, as above Volcarona, Raging Bolt and Iron Valiant to become bigger threaths as their counters are eliminated. this part is misleading, sd chomp isnt meant to lure these checks Garchomp's typing makes it weak to Ice-types and Fairy-types, and as such, Pokemon like Weavile, Iron Valiant and Tapu Lele are great at stopping Garchomp before it can start setting up, simplify so Mega Scizor and Gholdengo are great teammates due to being able to hinder these Pokemon. Landorus-T is able to pivot around Garchomp with ease, lowering its attack every time it comes in via Intimidate. Urshifu-R can assist Garchomp by threathening lethal damage on Landorus-T with Surging Strikes. merge above sentences Scale Shot increases Garchomp's Speed by 1, however, it has the downside of lowering its defense by 1 stage. this is mainly dex info, shortened and moved to next sentence As such, The Defense drops from Scale Shot leaves Garchomp can be overrun by vulnerable to strong priority users like Weavile, Dragonite and Kingambit. Tapu Lele's Psychic Surge can be a huge boon to Garchomp, making priority moves unable to hit for 5 turns with Garchomp being able to take care of Tapu Lele's counters like Gholdengo and Heatran.

Mention what archetypes chomp fits on, either in this sentence or a new one Garchomp's powerful combination of STABs allows it to pray on a majority of Pokemon Specify what types of Pokemon chomp preys on, you already list a lot of defensive Pokemon so say that like Toxapex, Dragonite, and Slowking-Galar, to the benefit of teammates like Volcarona, Raging Bolt and Iron Valiant. Garchomp's typing leaves it weak to attacks from notable Pokemon like Tapu Lele and Iron Valiant, probably should mention at least 1 Ice type here while also not being able to do much against Landorus-T, who can come in very often to drop Garchomp's attack via Intimidate. Mega-Scizor is a great solution to this problem, as it can hits from the affromentioned Fairy-types while being able to find easy set-up opportunity against Landorus-T. Lando often runs taunt, just say that it forces it out Urshifu-R can also assist Garchomp by threathening lethal damage on Landorus-T with Surging Strikes. feel like this isn’t the best example, as most likely you are taking 50% from helmet, instead talk about how it lures pec and bolt for chomp to come in The Defense drops from Scale Shot leaves Garchomp vulnerable to strong priority users like Weavile, Dragonite and Kingambit. Tapu Lele's Psychic Surge can be a huge boon to Garchomp, making priority moves unable to hit for 5 turns dex info, you should also connect this with the priority sentence more directly, with something like “making those priority moves” or just naming the Pokemon with Garchomp being able to take care of Tapu Lele's counters like Gholdengo and Heatran. Tapu-Lele is also able to eliminate Great Tusk, which also presents itself as a threat to Garchomp by being able to shrug off its hits easily and kill it in return with an Ice Spinner.

It is able to leverage its great typing to find set up setup opportunities against Pokemon like Mega-Charizard-Y Mega Charizard Y and unboosted Volcarona. Fire Fang gives it great coverage against Mega-Scizor Mega Scizor the dash is wrong pls take note, Corviknight and Ferrothorn.


Garchomp fits best on very offensive bulky offense and hyper offense structures, where its combination of Swords Dance+Scale Shot Swords Dance and Scale Shot can quickly overwhelm the opposing team if not taken care of properly. It uses its powerful combination of STABs STAB moves to pray prey on a lot of defensive or more or less the same thing in this instance bulky Pokemon like Toxapex, Dragonite, and Slowking-Galar Galarian Slowking, to the benefit of teammates like Volcarona, Raging Bolt, (AC) and Iron Valiant. Garchomp's typing leaves it weak to attacks from notable Pokemon like Tapu Lele, Iron Valiant, (AC) and Weavile while also not being able to do much against Landorus-T, who which can come in very often to drop Garchomp's Attack via Intimidate. Mega-Scizor Mega Scizor is a great solution to this problem, as it can take hits from the affromentioned aforementioned afro mentioned? lmaoo Pokemon while being able to consistenly consistently force Landorus-T out. Urshifu-R can also be a great teammate for it, as it can lure in Toxapex and Raging Bolt, (AC) who which then get removed by Garchomp. The Defense drops from Scale Shot leave Garchomp vulnerable to strong priority users like Weavile, Dragonite, (AC) and Kingambit. Tapu-Lele's Tapu Lele's Psychic Surge is able to circumvent this issue by making these priority moves unable to hit. In exchange, Garchomp is able to take care of Tapu Lele's counters like Gholdengo and Heatran. Tapu-Lele Tapu Lele is also able to eliminate Great Tusk, which also presents itself as a threat to Garchomp by being able to shrug off its hits easily and kill KO kill = not child friendly it in return with an Ice Spinner.
