Choice Scarf allows Roaring Moon to outspeed and defeat threatening foes to Dragon-type teams such as Choice Specs Greninja and Flutter Mane. Knock Off aids Roaring Moon in removing items from Pokemon that can reliably switch into it such as Heavy-Duty Boots from Corviknight and Leftovers from Great Tusk while also obliterating Gholdengo as well as a prominent threat in Flutter Mane. Iron Head allows Roaring Moon to combat Fairy-type Pokemon that are able to switch into both of its STAB moves such as Iron Valiant, Enamorus, and Alolan Ninetales. U-turn allows Roaring Moon to retain momentum in battles by pivoting out of common switch-ins such as Skarmory, Hippowdon, and the aforementioned Corviknight.

Choice Specs Kyurem forms a great offensive core with Roaring Moon, as it can reliably take out Pokemon that switch into Roaring Moon easily, such as the aforementioned Steel- and Ground-type physical walls in Skarmory, Corviknight, Great Tusk, and Hippowdon. In return, Roaring Moon grants Kyurem safe entry against passive Pokemon with U-turn while also taking out faster Fairy-type threats such as Flutter Mane and Iron Valiant. Archaludon is a great defensive teammate for Roaring Moon, as it is able to sponge physical attacks from Ogerpon-H, Meowscarada, and Scizor, while Roaring Moon is able to take out threatening special attackers that can take advantage of Archaludon like Gholdengo. Archaludon also provides entry hazard support in Stealth Rock while also threatening Chien-Pao and Kingambit with Body Press. Dragapult is another offensive teammate capable of spreading status in Will-O-Wisp, neutering threats such as offensive Great Tusk and Zamazenta, which alleviates pressure on Roaring Moon's breaking capabilities. Hisuian Goodra is another defensive teammate that pairs well with Roaring Moon, as it can readily take special Ice- and Fairy-type attacks from speedier threats like Choice Scarf Greninja and Choice Scarf Flutter Mane while also being able to phaze setup sweepers such as Dragon Dance Dragapult with Dragon Tail. Gouging Fire in tandem with Roaring Moon work together to sweep opposing teams, whether it be Roaring Moon removing items and weakening foes for Gouging Fire to clean up or Gouging Fire setting up early and breaking through teams to allow Roaring Moon to sweep with the appropriate coverage late-game.

Gouging Fire in tandem with Roaring Moon work together to sweep opposing teams, whether it be Roaring Moon removing items and weakening foes building up chip over time against opposing teams for Gouging Fire to cleanup with Dragon Dance, or Gouging Fire setting up early and breaking through teams which allows Roaring Moon to sweep with the appropriate coverage late-game.

Roaring Moon paired with a Choice Scarf Paired with a Choice Scarf, Roaring Moon can outspeed and defeat threatening foes to Dragon-type teams, allows it to outspeed and defeat threatening foes to Dragon-type teams such as Choice Specs Greninja and Flutter Mane. (Let’s rephrase this a littlebut better so that the sentence can flow more than what it already is flowing.) Knock Off aids Roaring Moon in removing items from Pokemon that can reliably switch into it, (AC) such as Heavy-Duty Boots from Corviknight and Leftovers from Great Tusk, while also obliterating Gholdengo, as well as a prominent threat in Flutter Mane. Iron Head is the Roaring Moon’s best coverage move of choice as it allows Roaring Moon to combat Fairy-type Pokemon that are able to switch into both of its STAB moves, (AC) such as Iron Valiant, Enamorus, and Alolan Ninetales. U-turn allows Roaring Moon to retain maintain momentum in battles by pivoting out of common switch-ins, (AH) (AC) such as Skarmory, Hippowdon, and the aforementioned Corviknight.

Choice Specs Kyurem forms a great offensive core with Roaring Moon, (AC) as it can reliably take taking out Pokemon that switch into Roaring Moon easily, such as the aforementioned Steel- and Ground-type physical walls in Skarmory, Corviknight, Great Tusk, and Hippowdon. In return, Roaring Moon grants Kyurem safe entry against passive Pokemon with U-turn, while also taking out handling faster Fairy-type threats such as Flutter Mane and Iron Valiant. Archaludon is a great defensive teammate for Roaring Moon as it is able to sponge sponging physical attacks from Ogerpon-H, Meowscarada, and Scizor, while Roaring Moon is able to take out deals with threatening special attackers that can take advantage of Archaludon like Gholdengo. Archaludon also provides entry hazard support in Stealth Rock, while also threatening, and threatens Chien-Pao and Kingambit with Body Press. Dragapult complements Roaring Moon offensively, is another offensive teammate capable of spreading status in Will-O-Wisp, (RC) and neutering threats such as offensive Great Tusk and Zamazenta, (AC) which alleviates reducing the pressure on Roaring Moons breaking capabilities. Hisuian Goodra is another defensive teammate that pairs well with Roaring Moon, (AC) as it can readily take easily sponging special Ice- and Fairy-type attacks easily from speedier threats like Choice Scarf Greninja and Choice Scarf Flutter Mane, while also being able to phase phasing out setup sweepers such as Dragon Dance Dragapult with Dragon Tail. Gouging Fire in tandem with Roaring Moon, (AC) work together to sweep opposing teams, (RC) — whether it be it’s Roaring Moon removing items and weakening foes for Gouging Fire to cleanup, or Gouging Fire setting up early and breaking through teams, (AC) which allows allowing Roaring Moon to sweep with the appropriate coverage late-game.

Great set! But I have some tips that could make it even better. To make use of Roaring Moon’s Protosynthesis, I think you should pair it with Stealth Rock Torkoal. Torkoal can set up the sun and some hazards, then you can bring out Roaring Moon and have Proto modify Attack to give it more power. You could also do Proto: Speed if you want Band instead of Scarf. But this is just a suggestion, play how you want.

Hello! This is a monotype analysis, so torkoal cannot be run with roaring moon since they dont share a type, hope that clears stuff

implemented, this is now done, thanks everyone!
