[SET COMMENTS]
Choice Band Weavile is a great wallbreaker with its high Speed, STAB combination with limited switch-ins, and powerful Pursuit to threaten plenty of foes like Galarian Slowking, Blissey, and Mega Latios. It forces out many offensive staples like Ogerpon-W and Tornadus-T while threatening common defensive pieces like Landorus-T, Gliscor, Zapdos, and Galarian Slowking. Ice Shard picks off weakened setup sweepers like Dragonite and Tera Grass Volcarona as well as slower priority move users like Raging Bolt and Rillaboom. Pursuit eliminates foes like Mega Latios, Galarian Slowking, and Tapu Lele locked into Psychic-type moves, as well as chipping foes forced out by Weavile like Tornadus-T, Dragonite, and Zapdos. Tera Dark boosts the power of Knock Off, allowing it to muscle through common switch-ins like Toxapex and Ferrothorn, as well as punishing foes like Mega Latias and Tornadus-T staying on Weavile with a stronger Pursuit and removing its weakness to Stealth Rock. Teammates like Mega Latios, Tapu Lele, Volcarona, and Zamazenta appreciate Weavile trapping Galarian Slowking, while Zamazenta additionally enjoys Weavile's ability to pressure Zapdos and Mega Latias. Raging Bolt also pairs well with Weavile since it likes to have Weavile take care of Ground-types like Gliscor and Landorus-T and it can threaten bulky Water-types like Alomomola and Toxapex for Weavile. Choice Band Weavile is fragile to Stealth Rock, so it is very helpful to have teammates like Rotom-W and Tornadus-T to remove entry hazards, both of which can also pivot Weavile in against the likes of Galarian Slowking, Mega Latios, and opposing Rotom-W.
