[SET COMMENTS]
Choice Band Urshifu-R is a strong wallbreaker on Water teams, taking on bulky foes like Ferrothorn, Archaludon, Kyurem, and Mandibuzz. Aqua Jet is a strong priority option to pick off faster albeit weakened sweepers and cleaners such as Ceruledge and Sneasler. Thunder Punch targets Water- and Flying-types like Toxapex, Pelipper, and Mantine, while Ice Spinner handles Dragon- and Ground-types such as Dragonite and Clodsire. However, Aqua Jet is preferred, since it stops opposing sweepers and cleaners in their tracks to enable its teammates to sweep or clean late-game. U-turn allows Urshifu-R to pivot out of unfavorable matchups, such as against Mantine and Dragonite, and bring a teammate in to deal with them. Pelipper is not only neutral to Grass, but it also sets up rain to boost Urshifu-R's Water-type STAB attacks, turning it into a potential late-game cleaner with rain-boosted Aqua Jet. It notably has a good chance of OHKOing Alolan Raichu with Aqua Jet under rain, and rain further makes Surging Strikes harder to switch into. Additionally, Pelipper removes entry hazards with Defog and pivots it in safely with U-turn. Swift Swim users such as Mega Swampert and Barraskewda thus make for great teammates as well, as they appreciate Urshifu-R's wallbreaking so they can clean late-game. Mega Swampert also provides an Electric immunity to deal with the likes of Tapu Koko, Regieleki, and Zeraora. Toxapex and Empoleon are great defensive partners due to their part-Poison and part-Steel typings, respectively, that allow them to take on Fairy-types such as Mega Diancie and Alolan Ninetales, which Urshifu-R dislikes. Additionally, they can stack entry hazards with Toxic Spikes and Stealth Rock, respectively, to aid Urshifu-R in wallbreaking, and Toxapex also removes boosts from setup sweepers with Haze. Greninja forms a strong wallbreaking duo with Urshifu-R, with it taking on the likes of Sinistcha, the Ogerpon formes, and non-Choice Scarf Iron Valiant for Urshifu-R, while it appreciates the removal of Ferrothorn and Empoleon in return. Ogerpon-W eases the Ground matchup thanks to its resistance, handling the Landorus formes and Garchomp in the process.

Choice Band Urshifu-R is a strong wallbreaker on Water teams, taking on bulky foes like Ferrothorn, Hisuian Goodra, Kyurem, and Mandibuzz. Aqua Jet is a strong priority option to pick off faster albeit weakened sweepers and cleaners such as Ceruledge and Sneasler. Thunder Punch can also be used to target Water- and Flying-types like Toxapex, Pelipper, and Corviknight, while Ice Punch handles Dragon-types such as Dragonite and Garchomp. However, Aqua Jet is preferred since it stops opposing sweepers and cleaners in their track to enable its other teammates to sweep or clean late-game. U-turn allows Urshifu-R to pivot out of unfavorable matchups and bring its teammates in to deal with them. Pelipper not only provides a Grass neutrality, but it also sets up rain to boost Urshifu-R's Water-type STAB attacks, turning it into a potential late-game cleaner with rain-boosted Aqua Jet.[It's funny to note that now it has a great roll to ohko alolan Raichu under rain with aqua jet.] Additionally, Pelipper removes entry hazards with Defog and pivots it in safely with U-turn.

Choice Band Urshifu-R is a strong wallbreaker on Water teams, taking on bulky foes like Ferrothorn, (Archaludon?) Hisuian Goodra, Kyurem, and Mandibuzz. Aqua Jet is a strong priority option to pick off faster albeit weakened sweepers and cleaners such as Ceruledge and Sneasler. Thunder Punch can also be used to targets Water- and Flying-types like Toxapex, Pelipper, and Corviknight Mantine, while Ice Punch handles Dragon-types such as Dragonite and Clodsire Garchomp. However, Aqua Jet is preferred since it stops opposing sweepers and cleaners in their track to enable its other teammates to sweep or clean late-game. U-turn allows Urshifu-R to pivot out of unfavorable matchups (like who) and bring its teammates in to deal with them. Pelipper is not only neutral to Grass, but it also sets up rain to boost Urshifu-R's Water-type STAB attacks, turning it into a potential late-game cleaner with rain-boosted Aqua Jet, notably having a good chance of OHKOing Alolan Raichu with it under rain (more on near-unwallable surging strikes). Additionally, Pelipper removes entry hazards with Defog and pivots it in safely with U-turn. Swift Swim users such as Mega Swampert and Barraskewda thus make for great teammates as well, as they appreciate Urshifu-R's wallbreaking so they can clean late-game.

Toxapex and Empoleon are great defensive partners due to their part-Poison and part-Steel typings, respectively, that allow them to take on Fairy-types such as Tapu Lele (mega Diancie or Alolan Nine tales instead? Outspeeds too) which Urshifu-R dislikes.
