PU The Quag [QC: 2/2] [GP: 1/1]

[Bag of Trixx]

[OVERVIEW]
Quagsire is seen on stall teams and sometimes balance teams thanks to its support moves, Unaware, and reliable recovery. With Unaware, Quagsire is able to counter many setup sweepers such as Scrafty, Silvally-Steel, Charizard, and Sandaconda. Additionally, it fulfills a lot of role compression for said teams thanks to its wonderful defensive typing providing an Electric immunity for foes like Togedemaru and Rotom and making it an excellent switch-in to Aggron. However, Quagsire's 4x weaknesses to Grass-types and Freeze-Dry leave it unable to check certain Pokemon such as mixed Silvally formes as well as Arctozolt. Furthermore, Quagsire fails to halt incredibly strong wallbreakers like Arctovish and Choice Band Passimian in their tracks due to them comfortably 2HKOing it. Lastly, Quagsire has poor Special Defense, which makes it struggle against common special wallbreakers like Vikavolt, Choice Specs Mesprit, and Whimsicott.

[SET]
name: Unaware Wall
move 1: Scald
move 2: Earthquake
move 3: Recover
move 4: Toxic / Curse / Haze
item: Heavy-Duty Boots / Rocky Helmet / Leftovers
ability: Unaware
nature: Impish
evs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD

[SET COMMENTS]
Scald is essential for Quagsire, as it burns Grass-types that can switch into its STAB moves like Tsareena and Gourgeist-Small. Toxic wears down switch-ins like Whimsicott, Ribombee, and Vikavolt. Curse is another option to provide stall teams with a bulky setup sweeper and beat Bulk Up Scrafty reliably. Haze is also a good option to prevent setup opportunities from foes like Ribombee and Silvally-Fairy. Heavy-Duty Boots is preferred for its ability to nullify entry hazards, since Quagsire's bulk isn't largely impressive to begin with. Taking 44 EVs from Defense and putting them in Special Defense allows Quagsire to switch into Quiver Dance Ribombee, although it makes it easier to overwhelm on the physical side. Weezing is an outstanding partner for Quagsire, as it provides a Toxic immunity and a switch-in to Grass-types like Tsareena. Audino provides cleric support and appreciates Quagsire's abilities to handle setup sweepers that take advantage of its passiveness, like Sandaconda and Scrafty. Silvally-Steel or Articuno makes for a fine Defogger to pair with Quagsire, as entry hazards can severely cripple Quagsire's longevity if it loses its Heavy-Duty Boots.

[OVERVIEW]
Quagsire is at the forefront of stall teams and balance quag is fine on balance but def not a staple the way it is on stall, try to put more emphasis on stall w balance as more of sometimes thing teams alike thanks to it having a bevy of supportive moves paired well with quag utility is mainly just its ability less "support moves" the coveted Unaware ability and access to reliable recovery. Additionally, Quagsire fulfills a lot of role compression for said teams thanks to its wonderful defensive typing; providing a free Electric-type immunity for the likes of Togedemaru, Jolteon, and Lanturn prob rotom > lanturn since quag doesn't like tox/burn. However, Quagsire's x4 weaknesses to Grass-types and Freeze Dry leave in unable to check certain Pokemon in the tier such as mixed Silvally-forms as well as Arctozolt respectively. Furthermore, Quagsire fails to halt incredibly strong wallbreakers like Arctovish and Choice Band Passimian in their tracks due to them comfortably 2HKOing Quagsire with strong STAB moves or super effective coverage. Lastly, Quagsire has poor special defense; which means it is fruitless versus common special attacking wallbreakers like Vikavolt, Choice Specs Mesprit, and Whimsicott. this is pretty long for an overview so try to be more concise with the information you mention unaware but don't really cover what it does/its role on stall to stop sweepers

Scald is essential for Quagsire: as it provides burn chances on physical attackers who would otherwise switch in comfortably to its STAB moves like Tsareena or Gourgeist-Small dont think u have to specify gourg form since applies to the others. Earthquake is Quagsire's strongest STAB option and grants it an opportunity to threaten Poison-types like Silvally-Poison or Neutralizing Gas Weezing or to weaken bulkier defensive pivots like Lanturn this is all good information but you can be more general with STABs really and broad w like "spread burns". Toxic is preferable for its ability to wear down switch-ins like Whimsicott, Ribombee, or Vikavolt in order to truly dedicate Quagsire as a status spreader for Stall teams, however Curse is another option to provide Stall teams with a bulky setup sweeper and can beat Bulk Up Scrafty reliably this sentence is way too long, split it up into separate points. On the other hand, an alternative EV spread of 252 HP / 208+ Def / 48 SpD Bold ensures non-Leftovers Quagsire is never 2HKOd by Ribombee's Moonblast, meaning Haze is a good option to prevent setup opportunities swap the curse and haze mentions, and note the issues of giving up general utility with curse. Weezing makes for an outstanding partner for Quagsire as it provides not only a Toxic immunity, but an excellent resistance to Grass-types like Tsareena as well as provides Toxic Spikes support for a late-game Curse Quagsire setup sweep. Audino is another amazing teammate for its ability to provide Heal Bell support for a status-crippled Quagsire, and additionally Audino appreciates Quagsire's ability to check setup sweepers who take advantage of Audino's passiveness such as Scrafty and Silvally-Steel this is hella long and should be broken up, a lot is covered by just calling Audino a cleric, this also lets u fit an Aromatisse mention comfortably.

Scald is essential for Quagsire: as it provides burn chances on physical attackers who would otherwise switch in comfortably to its STAB moves like Tsareena or Gourgeist. Toxic is preferable in the last slot (keeps ppl from thinking that you mean toxic is preferable to scald.) for its ability to wear down switch-ins like Whimsicott, Ribombee, or Vikavolt in order to truly dedicate Quagsire as a status spreader for Stall teams. However, Curse is another option to provide Stall teams with a bulky setup sweeper and beat Bulk Up Scrafty reliably.

(not big on how this sentence is structured. start by mentioning why haze is useful, then explain that haze variants can run the ev spread you provide.) (also, maybe give the items a quick bit of explanation bc there are slashes.) Weezing makes for an outstanding partner for Quagsire as it provides not only a Toxic immunity, but an excellent resistance to Grass-types like Tsareena. Audino is another amazing teammate for its ability to provide cleric support for Quagsire and additionally appreciate Quagsire's abilities to handle setup sweepers who take advantage of Audino's passiveness like Sandaconda and Scrafty. Additionally, Silvally-Steel or Articuno make for a fine partners with Defog support for Quagsire; as hazards can severely cripple Quagsire's longevity if it lacks or loses its Heavy-Duty Boots.
