[SET COMMENTS]
Ash-Greninja utilizes its strong mixed attacking stats, decent offensive typing for Sheer Force, and good Speed to be a terrifying wallbreaker. Noxious Torque is the most consistent option to heavily dent Ice Scales Fairy-types such as Mega Audino and Arceus-Fairy. Bolt Strike hits Primal Kyogre, RegenVest Celesteela, and Imposter users; Combat Torque can be used instead to hit Dialga-O while still being decently powerful against the aforementioned targets. Certain wallbreakers like Mega Garchomp appreciate Ash-Greninja's unpredictability, as Ash-Greninja can lure in potential checks like Fur Coat Arceus-Fairy and heavily damage them for said wallbreakers. Ash-Greninja particularly struggles with breaking through RegenVest Dialga-O with Bolt Strike or Ice Scales Yveltal with Combat Torque, so Knock Off users such as RegenVest Primal Kyogre work well with it. RegenVest Primal Kyogre can also remove Assault Vest from the likes of Celesteela if Ash-Greninja doesn't run Bolt Strike. Ash-Greninja also dislikes faster wallbreakers such as Flutter Mane and Mega Sceptile, so solid checks to them like Ice Scales Mega Audino, Arceus-Fairy, and Meloetta is recommended. Imposter-proof Ash-Greninja with your own RegenVest Dialga-O or an Ice Scales + Strength Sap Arceus forme that is neutral to its STAB moves such as Arceus-Fairy.
