[SET COMMENTS]

Chien-Pao is an imposing force for any Dark team with its sky high Speed, blitzing past threats like Iron Valiant and Greninja, and great Attack. Sword of Ruin lets it beat physical walls like Ting-Lu, Garganacl, and Toxapex, though it doesn't have great bulk and has to watch out for super effective priority moves from Scizor, Lokix, and Slither Wing and struggles to break past walls like Dondozo and Quagsire. With Swords Dance, it can boost up to beat even the likes of Corviknight and Toxapex if it has Crunch. Fighting-type coverage picks off Dark-types like Kingambit and Greninja. Sacred Sword picks off weakened Garganacl, while Brick Break destroys opposing Dark or Fairy team's dual screens. Ice Shard stops common revenge killers like Choice Scarf Meowscarada, Flutter Mane, and Great Tusk.

As Chien-Pao focuses on breaking down foes with its sheer power and Speed, it appreciates support from its teammates. Ting-Lu can set up Stealth Rock and Spikes while Skuntank can set up Toxic Spikes and pressure Fairy-types, all of which make wallbreaking for Chien-Pao easier. Grimmsnarl provides Chien-Pao with dual screens support, making setting up easier. Sableye can burn opposing Pokemon and cripple them with Taunt and Knock Off, removing Heavy-Duty Boots and making foes susceptible to hazards, while also acting as a Fighting-type move switch-in. Choice Specs Greninja can clean up after Chien-Pao has done enough damage while also countering Fire-types that would annoy Chien-Pao such as Skeledirge and Cinderace if Chien-Pao does not have Crunch. Hydreigon can break Steel-types for Chien-Pao if it foregoes Fighting-type coverage or Swords Dance, beating Fighting-neutral Steel-types like Corviknight and Scizor. Choice Scarf Meowscarada is able to threaten Pokemon that counter Chien-Pao such as Quaquaval and Choice Scarf users such as Iron Valiant, Gholdengo, and Great Tusk, while also being able to pivot to Chien-Pao with U-Turn.

took out ice spinner from the set, you can keep it in the paragraph. i also reordered moves, swords dance to be in the last slot.

[SET COMMENTS]
- name some pokemon sword of ruin helps chien pao break.
- the second sentence makes it seems like it outpaces flutter mane, when its really just a speed tie
- without crunch swords dance really doesnt matter much for breaking toxapex, make that clear
- give a scenario where you break screens, just listing that brick break destroys screens is just dex info
- remove the sentence about its adamant nature, its speed tier is to important, maybe before greninjas release you could use adamant, but definitely not anymore

- move the information about priority being able to easily break chien pao to the second sentence of paragraph one
- remove the sentences about checks/counters
- if you want to talk about how meowscarada helps break rotom-w or ting lu etc, talk about meowscarada first, then what it breaks for chien pao
- greninja
- skuntank
- sableye
- when rewriting the paragraph about teammates, do it more like this example (unrelated to this analysis)
"Toxapex absorbs Toxic Spikes for Dondozo, can spread Toxic, and shrug off Grass-type attacks such as Choice Scarf Meowscarada's Flower Trick or Greninja's Grass Knot."

Tag me when all this is implemented so I can check it again.

Maroon I edited it

[set comments]
- lucario isnt super common and breloom gets picked off after minimal chip with ice shard, remove those examples
- mention skunk can break fairy types for it
- mention how sableye can knock off boots, allowing foes to be more suspectible to hazards for it
- feel like listing skeledirge as a fire type in the greninja line is a good example, since this set doesnt always run crunch
- also mention greninja can annoy water-types like pex and dondozo with esensory and gknot for chien pao
- i would list just one of the paldean tauros aqua, it doesnt necessarily beat blaze

QC 1/2

P.Otaku: chien-pao is very cute when he doesn't scratch the ground, between him and flutter mane, it's dangerous to go out on the ladder

Chien-Pao is an imposing force for any Dark-type team with its sky high speed which lets it blitz past threats like Iron Valiant and Greninja, and great attack coupled with its signature ability, Sword of Ruin, which drops the opponents' defense by 25%, letting it beat even the likes of Ting Lu, Garganacl and Toxapex which would wall it otherwise. Though it doesn't have great bulk and has to watch out for super effective priority moves from Scizor, Lokix, and Slither Wing, and more (and its "walled" by bulky walls like Dozo and Quaggy too). Chien-Pao's great speed lets it blitz past threats like Iron Valiant and Greninja, while also speed tying Flutter Mane. It can exploit their lowered defenses to threaten them with STAB Icicle Crashes or Ice Spinners. With Swords Dance, it can boost up to be able to beat even the likes of Corviknight and even Toxapex if it has Crunch. Fighting-type coverage is great to pick off Dark-types like Kingambit and Greninja, Sacred Sword picks off weakenedand Garganacl, while and Brick Break even letting it break destroys opposing Dark- or Fairy-type teams' dual screens. Ice Shard is great priority as after a boost it can stop common revenge-killers like Choice Scarf Meowscarada, Flutter Mane, and Great Tusk.

As Chien-Pao focuses on breaking down opponents with its sheer power and speed, it appreciates support from its teammates. Ting-Lu can set up Stealth Rock and Spikes while Skuntank can set up Toxic Spikes while also pressuring Fairy-types, all of which make breaking for Chien-Pao easier. Grimmsnarl provides Chien-Pao with dual screens support making setting up easier. Sableye can burn opposing Pokemon and cripple them with Taunt and Knock Off, the latter being able to remove Heavy Duty Boots making opponent susceptible to hazards, all of which support Chien-Pao (Chien Pao analysis, so all of this help chien-pao by default), while also acting as a Fighting-type move switch in. Choice Specs Greninja is also a great partner as it can clean up after Chien-Pao has done enough damage, while also countering the Fire-types that would annoy Chien-Pao such as Skeledirge and Cinderace if Chien-Pao does not have Crunch. Hydreigon can also break Steel-types for Chien-Pao if it foregoes Fighting-coverage (it also breaks Corv and Scizor, esp needed if SD-less). Choice Scarf Meowscarada is able to threaten Pokemon that counter Chien-Pao such as Quaquaval and Choice Scarf Iron Valiant (you could generalize to "opposing Scarfers like Gholdengo, Valiant, and Great Tusk" too if you want)Tauros-Paldea-Aqua, whilst also being able to pivot in Chien-Pao with U-Turn.

i'll go over this check

 

[Sulo]

GP 1/1, implement carefully and credit us both

notes for ken

you missed a good bit of stat capitalizations. make sure to capitalize "Speed", "Attack", etc.
"revenge killer" is without a hyphen.
when the phrase "[x] team" is used in Monotype analyses, where x = a Pokemon type, the usual "-type" part is not used.
foes = pokemon, opponents = player. this is important; it gets mixed up a lot.
"whilst" is english spelling, which we do not use. this goes for other words like "offence" and "utilise"; we use "offense", "utilize", and so on.
