[SET COMMENTS]
With a Choice Scarf, Frogadier becomes the fastest Pokemon in the tier and can act as an excellent pivot, revenge killer, and late-game cleaner. Surf threatens Choice Scarf Monferno and Trailblaze Pignite, while Ice Beam hits Drakloak and Scale Shot-boosted Gabite. U-turn is critically important to pivot on defensive answers to Frogadier like Quaxwell and Tinkatuff. Switcheroo + Choice Scarf can cripple setup sweepers like Vigoroth, Duosion, and Girafarig and a few key defensive pieces like Quaxwell and Clefairy. Spikes supports Frogadier's team and is a more valuable way to punish its checks in longer games.

Choice Scarf Frogadier can easily slot into a variety of team structures. Faster builds appreciate its revenge killing capabilities, but slower, more defensively oriented structures can still strongly take advantage of the utility Switcheroo and Spikes give and the potential late-game wincon Frogadier provides. Frogadier synergizes very well with Stealth Rock setters like Piloswine and Tinkatuff, as Frogadier can stop their common offensive checks like Monferno and Gabite. Frogadier also naturally forces a lot of switches, which helps rack up entry hazard damage. Fire-type offensive pivots like Raboot and Monferno can both maintain offensive momentum with U-turn while threatening walls like Dunsparce and Tinkatuff. They also offensively check Thwackey, which is a natural predator to Frogadier thanks to Grassy Glide. Grass-types like Thwackey and offensive Ivysaur both function as strong wallbreakers that punish Quaxwell and Clefairy for switching in and can easily be brought in with U-turn. Ivysaur also functions as a solid defensive check to opposing Thwackey. Despite sharing the same type, Quaxwell is a great teammate, as hazard removal makes Frogadier's pivot-centric playstyle less taxing, and, after a Flip Turn, Frogadier can easily punish the Ghost-types that Quaxwell invites in like Misdreavus and Drakloak with Switcheroo or Ice Beam. If running Spikes, a spinblocking Ghost-type is nearly essential to keep it up.

Can also mention Fire-types like Monferno and Raboot to break through walls like Dunsparce and Tinkatuff that Frog otherwise struggles to break through, and both also have U-turn to complete VoltTurn cores
