[SET COMMENTS]
Choice Band Gouging Fire is a nuclear wallbreaker on Fire teams, capable of shredding through common defensive staples such as Toxapex, Gliscor, and Clodsire with its nuclear STAB options and coverage with Earthquake. Raging Fury is chosen on this set for Gouging Fire's Fire STAB option thanks to its always-reliable Base Power compared to Heat Crash and its lack of recoil compared to Flare Blitz, letting Gouging Fire click the move without worrying about immediate drawbacks. Outrage annihilates foolish Dragon- and Water-types like Dragonite and Swampert attempting to switch in on Raging Fury, while Dragon Claw is a weaker but safer Dragon STAB option that can be clicked if the Outrage lock is undesirable. Earthquake rounds off the set by decimating miscellaneous switch-ins like non-Air Balloon Heatran and Toxapex trying to scout Gouging Fire's move choice. The given EV spread allows Gouging Fire to get a Speed boost in Sun to outpace the likes of Choice Scarf Great Tusk.

Ninetales and Torkoal are great partners for Gouging Fire as they set up sun to both power up Gouging Fire's Raging Fury as well as give it a Protosynthesis boost. Ninetales provides a speed control option that can deal with foes like Choice Scarf Urshifu-R that outspeeds Gouging Fire even with a Protosynthesis boost as well as Healing Wish support to let Gouging Fire wallbreak again or clean up weakened teams, while Torkoal can set Stealth Rock and remove opposing hazards with Rapid Spin. Cinderace and Talonflame function as effective entry hazard removal options for Gouging Fire to break through teams without worrying about Stealth Rock or Spikes damage. Cinderace also functions as a decent pivot as well as a fast attacker alongside Gouging Fire, while Talonflame provides a Ground immunity. Ogerpon-H deals with annoying Water-types like Primarina and Quagsire to let Gouging Fire spam its devastating Raging Fury. Heatran can provide Stealth Rock support to wear down foes like Swampert while dealing with Flutter Mane, which is a major threat to Gouging Fire. Ceruledge is another good teammate, as it can pick off Flutter Mane as well as switch in on Iron Defense + Body Press Zamazenta to shut it down.

Choice Band Gouging Fire is a nuclear wallbreaker on Fire teams, capable of shredding through common defensive staples such as Toxapex, Gliscor, and Clodsire with its nuclear STAB options (it would be better to use eq against pex and clod so its a bit inaccurate, id say instead powerful STAB combo and coverage). Raging Fury is chosen on this set for Gouging Fire's Fire STAB option thanks to its always-reliable Base Power compared to Heat Crash and its lack of recoil compared to Flare Blitz, letting Gouging Fire click the move without worrying about immediate drawbacks (Obvious STAB aint really needed). Outrage annihilates foolish Dragon- and Water-types like Dragonite and Swampert attempting to switch in on Raging Fury, while Dragon Claw is a weaker but safer Dragon STAB option that can be clicked if the Outrage lock is undesirable. Earthquake rounds off the set by decimating miscellaneous switch-ins like non-Air Balloon Heatran and Toxapex trying to scout Gouging Fire's move choice. The given EV spread allows Gouging Fire to get a Speed boost in Sun to outpace the likes of Choice Scarf Great Tusk. (This is just stating what the obvious 252 Speed EVs do, id mention what 168 atk evs do (feel free to reach out in analysis discussion channel if you need help here)

Ninetales and Torkoal are great partners for Gouging Fire as they set up sun to both power up Gouging Fire's Raging Fury as well as give it a Protosynthesis boost. Ninetales provides a speed control option that can deal with foes like Choice Scarf Urshifu-R that outspeeds Gouging Fire even with a Protosynthesis boost as well as Healing Wish support to let Gouging Fire wallbreak again or clean up weakened teams, while Torkoal can set Stealth Rock and remove opposing hazards with Rapid Spin. Ogerpon-H deals with annoying Water-types like Toxapex would mention smthing other than pex since you say eq targets it and Quagsire to let Gouging Fire spam its devastating Raging Fury. Heatran can provide Stealth Rock support to wear down foes like Swampert while dealing with Flutter Mane, which is a major threat to Gouging Fire. Ceruledge is another good teammate, as it can pick off Flutter Mane as well as switch in on Iron Defense + Body Press Zamazenta to shut it down. Finally, Cinderace and Talonflame function as effective entry hazard removal options for Gouging Fire to break through teams without worrying about Stealth Rock or Spikes damage. move this earlier after torkoal, id also expound on both of them since theyre more than just hazard removal

I'd add the following:
- Arcanine-Hisui: Revenge killer with espeed and handles flyings like mandi, defensive gyarados, and moltres
- Volcanion: Water immunity and has great coverage to check moltres and azu

Ill take one more look at this

[SET COMMENTS]
Choice Band Gouging Fire is a nuclear wallbreaker on Fire teams, capable of shredding through common defensive staples such as Toxapex, Gliscor, and Clodsire with its nuclear STAB options and coverage with Earthquake. Raging Fury is chosen on this set for Gouging Fire's Fire STAB option thanks to its always-reliable Base Power compared to Heat Crash and its lack of recoil compared to Flare Blitz, letting Gouging Fire click the move without worrying about immediate drawbacks.[Fluff, we are writing for it for a Fire team + Heat Crash and Flare Blitz is not even included in the main set so no need for this sentence as well.] Outrage annihilates foolish Dragon- and Water-types like Dragonite and Swampert attempting to switch in on Raging Fury, while Dragon Claw is a weaker but safer Dragon STAB option that can be clicked if the Outrage lock is undesirable. Earthquake rounds off the set by decimating miscellaneous switch-ins like non-Air Balloon Heatran and Toxapex trying to scout Gouging Fire's move choice. [You can also mention how it just flat out OHKO Choice Scarf Iron Boulder which is huge for fire teams.] The given EV spread allows Gouging Fire to get a Speed boost in Sun to outpace the likes of non-Choice Scarf Landorus, Garchomp, and Choice Scarf Great Tusk.

Ninetales and Torkoal are great partners for Gouging Fire as they set up sun to both power up Gouging Fire's Raging Fury [mention some examples where the boosted r fury is appreciated, you just flat out OHKO the Ogerpon formes, Clodsire, and Iron Valiant.] as well as give it a Protosynthesis boost. Ninetales provides a speed control option that can deal with foes like Choice Scarf Urshifu-R that outspeeds Gouging Fire even with a Protosynthesis boost as well as Healing Wish support to let Gouging Fire wallbreak again or clean up weakened teams, while Torkoal can set Stealth Rock and remove opposing hazards with Rapid Spin. [Gf now just OHKO Gliscor after Stealth Rock chip with Sun boosted Raging Fury.] Cinderace and Talonflame function as effective entry hazard removal options for Gouging Fire to break through teams without worrying about Stealth Rock or Spikes damage. Cinderace also functions as a decent pivot as well as a fast attacker alongside Gouging Fire, while Talonflame provides a Ground immunity. Ogerpon-H deals with annoying Water-types like Primarina and Quagsire to let Gouging Fire spam its devastating Raging Fury. Heatran can provide Stealth Rock support to wear down foes like Swampert while dealing with Flutter Mane, which is a major threat to Gouging Fire. Ceruledge is another good teammate, as it can pick off Flutter Mane as well as switch in on Iron Defense + Body Press Zamazenta to shut it down.
- Add Volcarona: Nice setup sweeper + great coverage options to ease a plethora of match ups.
