Doubles Chien-Pao

[UT]

Chien-Pao @ Life Orb
Ability: Sword of Ruin
Tera Type: Dark
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Icicle Crash
- Sucker Punch
- Sacred Sword
- Protect

Chien-Pao's amazing ability, blazing Speed tier, and near-perfect coverage are sure to bring ruin to the opposing team! Powerful physical attackers love taking advantage of the Defense drop Sword of Ruin provides; Dragonite in particular stands out thanks to its ludicrously powerful Extreme Speed and Chien-Pao checking the Ghost- and Steel-types that stand in its way. Other physical attackers like Basculegion-F and Palafin are also excellent teammates. Icicle Crash provides excellent neutral coverage and hits key targets like Landorus-T hard. Sucker Punch snipes fast foes like Choice Scarf Basculegion-F and Booster Energy Flutter Mane, while Sacred Sword hits Kingambit and Chi-Yu. Tera Dark secures the OHKO against Flutter Mane while shedding Ice-type's awful weaknesses, most notably dodging an OHKO from Choice Scarf Chi-Yu. Chien-Pao and its common teammates often rely heavily on priority moves, making Rillaboom a fantastic partner to clear Psychic Terrain. Chien-Pao struggles with opposing Fire- and Fairy-types, which teammates like Volcanion and Heatran can patch up nicely. Landorus-T and Amoonguss can handle Fighting-type moves aimed at Chien-Pao.

Powerful physical attackers love taking advantage of the Defense drop Sword of Ruin provides; Dragonite in particular stands out thanks to its ludicrously powerful Extreme Speed and Chien-Pao's ability to check the Ghost- and Steel-types that stand in its way. Other physical attackers like Iron Hands and Palafin are also excellent teammates. Icicle Crash provides excellent neutral coverage and hits key targets like Landorus-T hard, Sucker Punch snipes fast foes like Choice Scarf Basculegion-F and Booster Energy Flutter Mane, while Sacred Sword provides key coverage against Kingambit and Chi-Yu. Chien-Pao and its common teammates often rely heavily on priority moves, making Rillaboom a fantastic partner to clear Psychic Terrain. Chien-Pao struggles with opposing Fire- and Fairy-types, which teammates like Volcanion and Heatran can patch up nicely, while loathing Fighting-types like Iron Hands, which can be handled with Landorus-T and Amongus. it's pretty much just iron hands + fighting coverage, you could shorten it and say intimidate from lando and redirection from amoongus and work that in. not sure how we are on character count so you might have to trim a bit to include this + comments below but if it's out of scope for socmed it's ok too it just reads a little weird

- add a line about tera dark (mostly for boosting sucker punch, to usually guarantee a KO on flutter) - also removes the ice weakness which helps against something like a scarf chi-yu , lives modest/timid , you don't have to mention the latter part but removing ice is helpful in this meta!
- iron hands is a good example of a teammate, basculegion-f might be better example since it really pushes it over the edge damage wise but usage supports iron hands more so it's fine.
rest was covered on discord!
-amongus
excellent work for someone who doesn't play doubles! expected from c&c leader
