Swords Dance Urshifu-R functions as an amazing late-game cleaner due to its ability to boost its Speed with Trailblaze and its Attack with Swords Dance. Trailblaze allows Urshifu-R to outspeed the majority of the tier, including common Pokemon such as Mega Lopunny and even Choice Scarf users such as Tapu Lele and Landorus-T; it is best used to finish off low HP foes as a way to safely boost Speed. Aqua Jet is also an option in order to revenge kill Mega Diancie, Volcarona, and Tapu Koko at low HP. Protective Pads is used in order to ignore Static from Zapdos, Flame Body from Moltres and Volcarona, and contact damage from Ferrothorn, allowing it to break more freely.

Urshifu-R fits primarily on hyper offense and bulky offense teams, where its strong STAB moves coupled with Swords Dance allow it to shred through defensive structures with ease. Urshifu-R is able to break through defensive pieces such as Landorus-T, Great Tusk, and Gliscor with its strong Surging Strikes, which is appreciated by teammates such as Gholdengo and Kingambit. In return, Gholdengo can beat problems such as Toxapex and Iron Valiant, and Kingambit can put pressure on switch-ins such as Slowbro. Urshifu-R is also able to threaten Steel-types such as Kingambit and Melmetal with its STAB boosted Close Combat, allowing teammates such as Tapu Lele to break through teams more easily. In return, Tapu Lele breaks through Toxapex and Mega Venusaur for Urshifu-R. Urshifu-R finds itself weak to Grass-types such as Ogerpon-W and Kartana, both of which outspeed unboosted Urshifu-R, meaning switch-ins such as Raging Bolt and Ferrothorn are appreciated. As well as this, Ferrothorn can set Stealth Rock for Urshifu-R, chipping switch-ins such as non Heavy-Duty Boots Dragonite and Raging Bolt. Urshifu-R also has trouble setting up against opposing offense and can easily be revenge killed by Pokemon such as Iron Valiant and Choice Scarf Tapu Lele before setting up, meaning switch-ins such as Gholdengo and Galarian Slowking are appreciated, with the latter also being able to bring Urshifu-R in safely via Chilly Reception.

Swords Dance Urshifu-R functions as an amazing late-game cleaner due to its ability to boost its Speed with Trailblaze and Attack with Swords Dance. Trailblaze is used in order to hit Water-types such as Alomomola <= not really relevant since does barely anything compared to CC, talk about how it can be used to finish off low hp foes to boost safely, while also boosting Urshifu-R's Speed, allowing it to outspeed the majority of the tier. maybe talk about its speed tier, not necessary though Protective Pads is used in order to ignore Rocky Helmet chip from Pokemon such as Corviknight and Iron Barbs damage from Ferrothorn. more important to talk about birds + volc status, those are more detrimental

Urshifu-R fits primarily on hyper offense and bulky offense teams, where its strong STABs coupled with Swords Dance allow it to shred through defensive structures with ease. Urshifu-R is able to break through defensive pieces such as Landorus-T, Great Tusk and Gliscor with its strong Surging Strikes, which is appreciated by teammates such as Gholdengo and Kingambit. what do these do in return? Urshifu-R also is able to break through Pokemon such as Kingambit and Melmetal with its STAB boosted Close Combats, allowing teammates such as Tapu Lele to break through teams more easily. In return, Tapu Lele breaks through Toxapex and Mega Venusaur for Urshifu-R. However, Urshifu-R finds itself weak to Grass-Types such as Ogerpon Wellspring and Kartana, meaning switchins such as Raging Bolt and Ferrothorn are appreciated. In return <= you continue elaborating what they can do for shifu and not what it does in return, which is ok just reword, Ferrothorn can set Stealth Rock for Urshifu-R, chipping switch-ins such as non Heavy-Duty Boots Dragonite and Raging Bolt. Urshifu-R also struggles to break through Zapdos, meaning teammates such as Mega Tyranitar and Mega Diance are appreciated, with Urshifu-R being able to break through threats such as Choice Scarf Landorus-T in return. maybe have some comment on how it has trouble setting up against opposing offense and is easily revenge killed if it cant set up + teammates to cover stuff like lele ival

Trailblaze is used in order to finish off low HP opponents, while also boosting Urshifu-R's Speed, allowing it to outspeed the majority of the tier. Trailblaze allows Urshifu-R to outspeed the majority of the tier, including <some fast guys like mlop> and even Choice Scarf users like <some scarfers like lele>; it is best used to finish off low HP foes as a way to safely boost Speed. Protective Pads is used in order to ignore Static from Zapdos, Flame Body from Moltres and Volcarona, and Iron Barbs contact damage from Ferrothorn and Rocky Helmet users such as Landorus-T, allowing it to pivot <= huh? shifu does not pivot with this set, reword more freely.

Urshifu-R fits primarily on hyper offense and bulky offense teams, where its strong STABs coupled with Swords Dance allow it to shred through defensive structures with ease. Urshifu-R is able to break through defensive pieces such as Landorus-T, Great Tusk and Gliscor with its strong Surging Strikes, which is appreciated by teammates such as Gholdengo and Kingambit. In return Gholdengo can check Choice Scarf Tapu Lele, providing Urshifu-R with a Psychic and Fairy-type switchin. move this later since ur currently talking about offensive matchups, instead talk about how ghold can remove problems like pex and mola and gambit can pressure stuff like rbolt Urshifu-R also is able to break through Pokemon such as Kingambit and Melmetal with its STAB boosted Close Combats, allowing teammates such as Tapu Lele to break through teams more easily. In return, Tapu Lele breaks through Toxapex and Mega Venusaur for Urshifu-R.

Trailblaze allows Urshifu-R to outspeed the majority of the tier, including common Pokemon such as Mega Lopunny and even Choice Scarf users such as Tapu Lele and Landorus-T; it is best used to finish off low HP foes as a way to safely boost Speed. Protective Pads is used in order to ignore Static from Zapdos, Flame Body from Moltres and Volcarona, and contact damage from Ferrothorn and Rocky Helmet users such as Landorus-T, allowing it to break more freely. too many examples Ngl I suggest keeping it concise with 2-3 examples like Zapdos,Moltres, ferro whatever you prefer honestly. Just cut it down a bit. Additionally we came to the conclusion we wanna slash jet so give that a mention to hit targets like Volcarona, Mega diancie and weakened koko.

Urshifu-R fits primarily on hyper offense and bulky offense teams, where its strong STABs coupled with Swords Dance allow it to shred through defensive structures with ease. Urshifu-R is able to break through defensive pieces such as Landorus-T, Great Tusk and Gliscor with its strong Surging Strikes, which is appreciated by teammates such as Gholdengo and Kingambit. In return Gholdengo can break through problems such as Toxapex and Alomomola, and Kingambit can put pressure on threats such as Raging Bolt while it does pressure Toxapex the rest are kinda iffy mentions especially gambit since more often than not it’s a 50/50, alomomola lives in unposted and just flip turns and raging bolt wins 1v1, I suggest mentioning Iron Valiant as ghold checks that and Slowbro if you lack trailblaze. Urshifu-R also is able to break through Pokemon such as Kingambit and Melmetal with its STAB boosted Close Combats, allowing teammates such as Tapu Lele to break through teams more easily. In return, Tapu Lele breaks through Toxapex and Mega Venusaur for Urshifu-R. However, Urshifu-R finds itself weak to Grass-Types such as Ogerpon Wellspring and Kartana it’s worthy mentioning that these two outspeed unboosted shifu, meaning switchins such as Raging Bolt and Ferrothorn are appreciated. As well as this, Ferrothorn can set Stealth Rock for Urshifu-R, chipping switch-ins such as non Heavy-Duty Boots Dragonite and Raging Bolt. Urshifu-R also struggles to break through Zapdos, meaning teammates such as Mega Tyranitar and Mega Diancie are appreciated, with Urshifu-R being able to break through threats such as Choice Scarf Landorus-T in return this set doesn’t really struggle breaking through zap its swords dance. Urshifu-R also has trouble setting up against opposing offense and can easily be revenge killed by Pokemon such as Iron Valiant and Choice Scarf Tapu Lele before setting up, meaning switchins such as Gholdengo and Galarian Slowking also mention how it gets it in safely via Chilly reception are appreciated.

Aqua Jet is also an option in order to revenge kill Mega Diancie, Volcarona, (AC) and low HP even at +2 idt any of these drop from full so its assumed theyd all be low Tapu Koko at low HP. Protective Pads is used in order to ignore Static from Zapdos, Flame Body from Moltres and Volcarona, (AC) and contact damage from Ferrothorn, (AC) allowing it to break more freely.

In return, (AC) Gholdengo can beat problems such as Toxapex and Iron Valiant, and Kingambit can put pressure on switch-ins such as Slowbro. Urshifu-R also is also able to break through threaten doesnt really break them + repetition Pokemon Steel-types bit more specific such as Kingambit and Melmetal with its STAB boosted Close Combats Close Combat moves are never plural, allowing teammates such as Tapu Lele to break through teams more easily. In return, Tapu Lele breaks through Toxapex and Mega Venusaur for Urshifu-R. However, not directly contrasting to anything Urshifu-R finds itself weak to Grass-Types Grass-types such as Ogerpon Wellspring Ogerpon-W and Kartana, both of whom which outspeed unboosted Urshifu-R, meaning switchins switch-ins such as Raging Bolt and Ferrothorn are appreciated.
