Toxapex is one of the best pivots in STABmons, thanks to Flip Turn. It's also a fantastic check to a lot of common attackers like Urshifu-R, Buzzwole, and non-Nasty Plot Tornadus-T. Flip Turn lets Toxapex generate momentum and pivot in wallbreakers like Kyurem, Aerodactyl, and Tyranitar. Moreover, Toxapex can almost always make progress against the opposing team; Toxic lets it wear down almost everything in the tier, notably Seismitoad, Gastrodon, and Rotom-W, which are otherwise fine switch-ins to it. Knock Off can also be ran to remove items from the likes of Ferrothorn and Clefable. Lastly, Scald can be run to try and burn physical attackers such as Excadrill; it also lets Toxapex status other Steel- and Poison-type Pokemon that are immune to Toxic, such as Ferrothorn, Corviknight, and opposing Toxapex. Haze lets Toxapex thwart setup sweepers like Clefable, Buzzwole, and Gyarados that attempt to use it as setup fodder. Depending on your team, it is also possible to drop Haze and run one of the aforementioned options, such as Scald or Toxic. Toxapex works best on more defensive teams and teammates like Buzzwole, Mudsdale, and Ferrothorn can help patch up its weaknesses against wallbreakers like Excadrill and Zeraora. A Relaxed nature alongside 0 Speed IVs make Toxapex as slow as possible for Flip Turn.

Toxapex can use its wide movepool and good bulk alongside Regenerator to be a fantastic special wall, further boosting its Special Defense with Assault Vest to check common Special Attackers like Keldeo, Gengar, and Cloyster. Poison Fang lets it potentially poison Tornadus-T, Kyurem, and Water-immune foes like Gastrodon and Seismitoad that try to switch into Flip Turn. Scald can also be used to try and deter physical attackers like Zeraora and Tyranitar and Steel-types like Ferrothorn from switching in. Knock Off lets Toxapex pressure the likes of Thundurus-T, Galarian Slowking, and Reuniclus while also doing good damage against Gengar and Slowking. Flip Turn lets it pivot out against wallbreakers it can'(apostrophe)t handle and safely get wallbreakers like Aerodactyl and Nidoking onto the field. Clear Smog lets it prevent sweepers like Calm Mind Clefable and Nasty Plot Tornadus-T from getting out of hand. Due to Toxapex mostly being used to handle special attackers, physical walls like Mudsdale, Cotton Guard Ferrothorn, and Buzzwole make for fantastic teammates as they cover each others weaknesses. Steel- and Dark-types like Corviknight and Tyranitar can also help it against Psychic-type foes like Reuniclus, Latios, and Future Sight Slowking. A Relaxed nature with 64 Defense EVs lets Toxapex avoid getting OHKOed by Zeraora while helping it take on other physical attackers like Rillaboom and Urshifu-R. 0 Speed IVs are used to ensure the slowest possible pivots with Flip Turn.

Toxapex is one of the best pivots in STABmons, being able to check a plethora of the tiers most common attackers like Tyranitar maybe swap for Urshifu-R since Tyranitar can kinda blow through pex with head smash, Buzzwole, and Tornadus-T. It can almost always make progress against the opposing team; Toxic lets it wear down almost everything in the tier, notably Seismitoad and Rotom-W which are otherwise fine switch-ins to it. Knock Off can also be ran to remove items from the likes of Ferrothorn or Clefable. Lastly, Scald can be run to try to fish burns against physical attackers. Flip Turn lets Toxapex generate momentum and pivot in breakers like Kyurem, Aerodactyl, and Tyranitar. Haze lets Toxapex thwart set-up sweepers like Clefable, Buzzwole, or and Gyarados that attempt to use it as set up fodder. Toxapex works best on more defensive teams, and teammates like Buzzwole, Mudsdale, and Ferrothorn Clefable, and Heatran can help patch up its weaknesses against breakers like Excadrill and Zeraora, and Sylveon. A Relaxed nature alongside 0 Speed ivs IVs is used to assure as slow as possible Flip Turns.

Toxapex is one of the best pivots in STABmons, being able to check a plethora of the tiers most common attackers like Urshifu-R, Buzzwole, and non-Nasty Plot Tornadus-T. Sentence is good, but I think you need to stress out that Flip Turn is what make it so good at pivoting. Btw specifiy no NP Torna-T, otherwise it is quite dangerous to the Toxa Moreover, it can almost always make progress against the opposing team; Toxic lets it wear down almost everything in the tier, notably Seismitoad, Gastrodon, and Rotom-W which are otherwise fine switch-ins to it. Knock Off can also be ran to remove items from the likes of Ferrothorn or Clefable. Lastly, Scald can be run to try to fish burns against physical attackers such as Excadrill; it also lets Toxapex inflicting crippling status against Steel- and Poison-types Pokemon that normally don't mind Toxic, such as Ferrothorn, Corviknight, and other Toxapex. Rewrite it if you want to do so (tbh, my writing might be rusty lol), but make sure you mention these pokémon as scald targets Flip Turn lets Toxapex generate momentum and pivot in breakers like Kyurem, Aerodactyl, and Tyranitar. Depending on how you edited the first sentence, this might need to change as well ig? Haze lets Toxapex thwart set-up sweepers like Clefable, Buzzwole, and Gyarados that attempt to use it as set up fodder.

Would reorder the move so #1 Flip Turn; #2 Knock; #3/4 Clear Smog / PF / Scald. Flip turn is (once again, smh) godlike and should be reflected; also a slash on #1 move feels bad, especially for something minor like the 4th move.

Toxapex can use its fantastic movepool and good bulk alongside Regenerator to be a fantastic special wall. (prob another adjective since there is already fantastic at the start) Further boosting its Special Defense with an Assault Vest to check common Special Attackers like Keldeo, Gengar, and Cloyster. This sentence feels odd to read. Definitely a GP thing, though. Poison Fang lets it spread poison against foes like Seismitoad, Gastrodon. Tornadus-T, and Kyurem. (Torna-T and Kyure can be PF target, yes, but for me the #1 objective to PF is to not be totally helpess against (the omnipresent) Seismitoad, against which you know that poison is often terribly powerful; spreading poison is def a bonus for me. You can still mention Torna-T and Kyurem, but make sure you separate them and the Water/Ground waters. Good!) Scald can also be used to try and deter physical attackers from switching in (examples! and also add it can fish burn against passive steels). Knock Off lets it pressure the likes of Thundurus-T, Slowking-G, and Reuniclus, while also doing good damage against Gengar and Slowking. Flip Turn lets it pivot out against breakers it cant handle, while also being able to safely get in breakers like Aerodactyl and Nidoking onto the field. Good! Just move the sentence at the start to reflect new move order :) Clear Smog lets it prevent Sweepers like Cald Mind Clefable or Nasty Plot Tornadus-T from getting out of hand. Due to it mostly being used to handle special attackers, physical walls like Mudsdale, Cotton Guard Ferrothorn, and Buzzwole make for fantastic teammates as they cover each others weaknesses. Steel- and Dark-types like Corviknight and Tyranitar can also help it against Psychic-type foes like Reuniclus, Latios, and Future Sight users like Slowking. or Mew (I'm pretty sure it just these three, so IDT Mew should be listed). A Relaxed nature with some Defense investment helps Toxapex handle physical attacks from Urshifu-RS, Zeraora, and Rillaboom. 0 Speed IVs is used to assure as slow as possible Flip Turns.
