Moves
========

Substitute allows Kangaskhan to avoid status moves such as Quagsire's Toxic and rack up damage with Toxic more easily. Toxic cripples switch-ins such as Regirock, Quagsire, and Tangela and allows Kangaskhan to get past them. Lastly, Power-Up Punch raises Kangaskhan's Attack stat by one stage every time it's used, increasing its offensive presence and allowing it to exploit its checks such as Mudsdale more easily. Alongside Toxic, this allows Kangaskhan to be a threat to bulkier teams.

Set Details
========

Leftovers gives Kangaskhan passive recovery and allows it to partially negate the damage taken by making a Substitute. An Impish nature combined with the EV investment in Defense prevents Quagsire from breaking Kangaskhan's Substitute with Earthquake, while the EV investment in Special Defense is used so Tangela can never break Kangaskhan's Substitute with Giga Drain.

Usage Tips
========

Early- and mid-game, Kangaskhan should aim to cripple its checks like Mudsdale and Regirock and set up a Substitute to rack up damage with Toxic. Due to its decently high bulk, it can be used as a check to foes such as non-Flyinium Z Oricorio-E and Stealth Rock Mesprit if healthy. It can come in on passive Pokemon that can't break its Substitute like Jellicent and Articuno. However, it has to be wary of Will-O-Wisp and Toxic, which greatly hinder its longevity. Furthermore, Kangaskhan should only set up when its checks, such as Regirock and Mudsdale, are weakened. However, in Quagsire's case, Kangaskhan should pressure it with Toxic and attacks until it's forced to switch out, as Unaware allows Quagsire to ignore the Attack boost provided by Power-Up Punch. Finally, due to Kangaskhan's lack of reliable recovery, it shouldn't be switched in repeatedly.

Team Options
========

Due to Kangaskhan's weakness to Fighting-types such as Gurdurr and Primeape, checks to them like Oricorio-E are greatly appreciated. Qwilfish and Mesprit are good options, as they can also help Kangaskhan weaken its checks faster thanks to entry hazards. The latter can also fully heal Kangaskhan with Healing Wish and bring it in safely with U-turn. Other good partners are the ones that appreciate the likes of Quagsire, Regirock, and Tangela weakened or outright taken out such as Lycanroc, Dodrio, and Gurdurr. Lastly, Kangaskhan's lack of reliable recovery means that it can easily be chipped away with entry hazards and status conditions. Entry hazard removers such as Skuntank and Alolan Sandslash are especially good partners, as the former can remove Toxic Spikes by coming on the field, while the latter is immune to Toxic Spikes.

Moves
========

• Substitute allows Kangaskhan to avoid status moves such as Quagsire's Toxic.
• Toxic cripples switchins such as Regirock and Quagsire and allows Kangaskhan to get past them. (add tangela here)
• Power-Up Punch raises Kangaskhan's Attack stat by one stage every time it's used, increasing its offensive presence and allowing it to get past checks such as Mudsdale easier. (this also improves its stall mu in tandem with toxic)

Set Details
========

• Leftovers gives Kangaskhan passive recovery and allows it to negate (some of. this reads like it negates all the damage) the damage taken by making a Substitute.
• An Impish nature combined with the EVs investment in Defense are used so Quagsire can never break Kangaskhan's Substitute with Earthquake. (mention what the spdef investment does too)

Usage Tips
========

• Early- and mid-game, Kangaskhan should aim to cripple its checks like Quagsire and Regirock and setup a Substitute to rack up damage.
• Due to its decently high bulk, it can be used as a check to foes such as Oricorio-E if healthy.
• It can come in on passive Pokemon that can't break its Substitute like Jellicent and Articuno. However, it has to be wary of Will-O-Wisp and Toxic, which greatly hinder its longevity.
• Kangaskhan should only setup when its checks, such as Regirock and Mudsdale, are weakened due to Toxic and repeated attack. However, in Quagsire's case, it should pressure it with Toxic and attacks until it's forced to switch out because of Unaware.
• It should be kept away from status, as they greatly hinder its staying power and stallbreaking capabilities. (add on to this by saying something like "due to a lack of recovery, it shouldn't switch in repeatedly)

Team Options
========

• Due to its weakness to Fighting-types like Gurdurr and Primeape, checks to these such as Oricorio-E are greatly appreciated. Qwilfish and Mesprit are good partners, as they can help Kangaskhan weaken its check faster thanks to entry hazards. The latter can also fully heal Kangaskhan with Healing Wish. (mesp also gets it onto the field safely via u-turn)
• Partners that appreciate the likes of Quagsire, Regirock and Tangela weakened or outright taken out make for good choice. Lycanroc, Dodrio and Gurdurr all make for good partners.
• Kangaskhan's lack of reliable recovery means that it can easily be chipped with entry hazards and status conditions. Therefore, entry hazards removers such as Skuntank are decent partners. Alolan Sandslash is an especially good one, as it's also immune to Toxic Spikes. Mesprit can cure Kangaskhan from any status condition thanks to Healing Wish while also fully healing its health. (you already mentioned mesprit's healwishing above and its not even a hazard remover)
• Pokemon that appreciate Kangaskhan's ability to stallbreak and break through walls such as Articuno and Altaria make for decent options. Lilligant works well alongside Kangaskhan, as Lilligant can take care of threats such as Quagsire and Regirock easier than Kangaskhan can while Kangaskhan can beat threats Lilligant struggles to break such as Articuno and Type: Null.

Usage Tips
========

• Early- and mid-game, Kangaskhan should aim to cripple its checks like Quagsire i would avoid overusing the same example, quagsire's been in every single section and Regirock and setup a Substitute to rack up damage.
• Due to its decently high bulk, it can be used as a check to foes such as Oricorio-E if healthy. idk, it can check some stuff but cm z move pompom is not losing to kanga 1v1 idt

This also just completely overlaps with the second bullet, I don't know what the difference is here other than the example doesn't make sense

Lastly, Power-Up Punch raises Kangaskhan's Attack stat by one stage every time it's used, increasing its offensive presence and allowing it to get past checks such as Mudsdale easier (nitpick but you don't rly use pup to get past mudsdale, that's what toxic is for. you sorta cover this the next sentence but I think saying exploiting checks sounds better). Alongside Toxic, this allows Kangaskhan to be a threat to bulkier teams.

Set Details
========

Leftovers gives Kangaskhan passive recovery and allows it to partially negate the damage taken by making a Substitute. An Impish nature combined with the EVs investment in Defense are used so Quagsire can never break Kangaskhan's Substitute with Earthquake while the EVs investment in Special Defense are used so Tangela can never break Kangaskhan's Substitue with Giga Drain.

Usage Tips
========

Early- and mid-game, Kangaskhan should aim to cripple its checks like Mudsdale and Regirock and setup a Substitute to rack up damage (stall out toxic rather, currently this sounds like you're using substitute to cause damage). Due to its decently high bulk, it can be used as a check to foes such as non-Flyinium Z Oricorio-E and Stealth Rock Mesprit if healthy. It can come in on passive Pokemon that can't break its Substitute like Jellicent and Articuno. However, it has to be wary of Will-O-Wisp and Toxic, which greatly hinder its longevity.

Finally, It should be kept away from status, as they greatly hinder its staying power and stallbreaking capabilities (you mention wanting to avoid status already). Due to its lack of reliable recovery, it shouldn't be switched in repeatedly.

Due to its weakness to Fighting-types such as Gurdurr and Primeape, checks to these like Oricorio-E are greatly appreciated.

Alolan Sandslash is an especially good one, as it's also immune to Toxic Spikes. (you might as well combine this sentence to talk about both skunk and slash since the former can also remove tspikes just by switching in)
