* Choice Band gives Annihilape the extra power it needs to take down bulky threats like non-Air Balloon Volcanion, Garchomp, non-Chople Berry Ursaluna-B, and Raging Bolt.
* Close Combat enables Annihilape to beat Ursaluna, Chien-Pao, Hisuian Goodra, Registeel and Urshifu-S.
* Earthquake helps Annihilape beat non-Choice Scarf Volcanion, non-Air Balloon Pecharunt, Iron Moth, and Assault Vest Metagross.
*Outrage enables Annihilape to beat Raging Bolt, Substitute Roaring Moon, and Garchomp.
*Gunk Shot allows Annihilape to beat non-Custap Berry Primarina, Sylveon, and Ogerpon-W.
* This EV Spread enables Annihilape to live a Modest Special Attack Booster Energy Raging Bolt Draco Meteor as well as an Acrobatics from Jolly Attack Booster Energy Roaring Moon. The Speed investment allows Annihilape to outspeed maximum Speed invested Primarina, Sylveon, and Hisuian Goodra.
* Annihilape should use Outrage on the first turn against Roaring Moon, since Roaring Moon can use Substitute and OHKO when Annihilape is at -1 Defense due to Close Combat.
*Annihilape loses to Pokemon like Iron Crown and Fairy-types like Custap Berry Primarina, Custap Berry Sylveon, Iron Valiant, and Alolan Ninetales. It is advised that Annihilape to be used alongside a Steel-type Pokemon like Assault Vest Metagross to address these weaknesses.

* Bullet about close combat
* Bullet about outrage

* Earthquake helps Annihilape beat Non Choice Scarf Volcanion, Pecharunt, Iron Moth, and Assault Vest Metagross. Outrage enables Annihilape to beat Raging Bolt, Substitute Roaring Moon, Garchomp and Assault Vest Regidrago. Gunk Shot allows Annihilape to beat Non Custap Berry Primaria, Sylveon and also Ogerpon-W. (These bullets should be separated, will probably look at the individual sentences again afterwards.)
* Bullet about gunk shot

* This EV Spread enables Annihilape to beat Raging Bolt by surviving to live a Modest Special Attack Booster Energy Raging Bolt Draco Meteor. (remove period) as well as It also allows Annihilape to survive Acrobatics from Jolly Attack Booster Energy Roaring Moon. The Speed investment enables Annihilape to outspeed Maximum Speed invested Primarina, Sylveon and Hisuian Goodra.
* Annihilape should use Close Combat on the first turn against Custap Berry Goodra Hisui since Annihilape can survive Draco Meteor from -1 Special Defense, as Earthquake can fail to OHKO Hisuian Goodra enabling Hisuian Goodra to use Acid Spray and launch Draco Meteor on the custap turn against -2 Annihilape which Annihilape can not survive. (I dont like his entire bullet, feels janky and unneccesary with 'annihilape' being said way too many times over a pronoun)
*Annihilape loses to Pokemon like Iron Crown, Custap Berry Primarina, Custap Berry Sylveon, Iron Valiant, and Alolan Ninetales. It is advised for Annihilape to be used alongside a Steel type Pokemon like Assault Vest Metagross to address these weaknesses. (Group these examples. "It loses to fairy types like..","therefore it should be used alongside...")
