Choice Scarf Kyogre is a decent revenge killer and wallbreaker, most notably on bulky offense teams, that threatens Pokemon such as Ting-Lu, Skeledirge, and most defensive Arceus formes. Ice Beam is Kyogre's best move to hit Koraidon and Miraidon, weakening them to potentially let it clean up late-game. Thunder is used for Toxapex and Arceus-Water. Tera Water boosts Water Spout considerably, allowing it to 2HKO Pokemon such as Eternatus and Tera Poison or Steel Ting-Lu, while Tera Ghost prevents Kyogre from being revenge killed by Extreme Killer Arceus. As Kyogre is slower than other Choice Scarf users such as Calyrex-S, Koraidon, Miraidon, and Extreme Speed Arceus, solid checks to them, such as Ting-Lu, Landorus-T and Toxapex for the latter two, are appreciated. Giratina-O checks Arceus too, and it can remove entry hazards for Kyogre to maintain its powerful Water Spout. Offensive teammates such as Calyrex-S and Miraidon can pressure Kyogre's checks such as Eternatus, Toxapex, and Arceus-Water, and they appreciate Kyogre threatening Ting-Lu for them. Partners such as Miraidon and Koraidon, whose checks are pressured by Kyogre can safely pivot it in with U-turn.

Scarf Kyogre acts as a form of decent speed control in AG, notably on Bulky Offense teams and pressures many defensive walls such as Ting-Lu and Skeledirge. Water Spout is used as Kyogre's primary move and Origin Pulse is used for when Kyogre is low on HP. Ice Beam and Thunder are used as coverage moves. Kyogre's presence is however greatly limited by Koraidon, which can easily take a Water Spout and force it out, making it quite prediction reliant with Ice Beam. Ice Beam is Kyogre's best move to hit Koraidon and Miraidon, letting Kyogre set up a Rain-boosted endgame. Thunder is used for Toxapex and Arceus-Water. list what the coverage is used for Tera Ghost on Kyogre prevents it from being revenge killed Ekiller Arceus, whereas Tera Water boosts Water Spout considerably, allowing it to 2HKO notable pokemon such as Eternatus and Ting-Lu even after it has used its Tera. restructure this to list Tera Water first, as it is the primary tera type. As Kyogre's presence is limited by Koraidon and Ekiller Arceus, solid checks to them, such as Skeledirge, Landorus, Defensive Arceus Formes and Toxapex are appreciated. mention that Kyogre is still slower than other Scarfers such as Calyrex-S, and so checks to it are appreciated. Pokemon that benefit from Kyogre's ability to pressure their checks or allow it to pivot in with U-turn such as Ekiller Arceus, Calyrex-Shadow, Miraidon and Koraidon are preferred as teammates. be specific, this tells me nothing. Miraidon in particular works in tandem with Kyogre to remove Ting-Lu for Miraidon and bulky water types such as Toxapex and Arceus Water that can switch into Kyogre. Miraidon can pivot into and pressure Kyogre's check such as Toxapex and Arceus-Water, while appreciating Kyogre pressuring Ting-Lu and Arceus-Ground for it.

Scarf Kyogre acts as a form of speed control in AG, notably on Bulky Offense teams and pressures many defensive walls Choice Scarf Kyogre is a decent revenge killer and wallbreaker, most notably on bulky offense teams, that threatens Pokemon such as Ting-Lu, (comma) and Skeledirge, (comma) and most defensive Arceus formes. (I think Arceus formes are important to note and this puts a bit more emphasis on its wallbreaking capabilities) Ice Beam is Kyogre's best move to hit Koraidon and Miraidon, letting Kyogre set up a Rain-boosted endgame Miraion; weakening them potentially lets it clean up late-game. (I think this is more clear) Thunder is used for Toxapex and Arceus-Water. Tera Water boosts Water Spout considerably, allowing it to 2HKO notable pokemon Pokemon such as Eternatus and Tera Poison or Steel Ting-Lu even after it has used its Tera and Tera Ghost on Kyogre prevents it Ting-Lu, while Tera Ghost prevents Kyogre from being revenge killed by Ekiller Extreme Killer Arceus. (trying to specify non-Tera Grass Ting-Lu) As Kyogre is still slower than other scarfers Choice Scarf users such as Koraidon and Calyrex-S Calyrex-S, Miraidon, and Koraidon and also dislikes Extreme Speed from Ekiller Arceus, solid checks to them such as Skeledirge, Landorus, Defensive Arceus Formes, Toxapex and Ting-Lu are appreciated them, such as Ting-Lu for Calyrex-S and Miraidon and defensive Arceus formes, Landorus-T, and Toxapex for the latter two, are appreciated. (there's probably a better way to do this but I tried to specify which Pokemon check which) Giratina-O checks Arceus too, and it can remove entry hazards for Kyogre to maintain a powerful Water Spout. (include this if you want) Offensive teammates such as Calyrex-S and Miraidon can pressure Kyogre's checks such as Eternatus, Toxapex, (comma) and Arceus-Water, while appreciating and they appreciate Kyogre pressuring threatening Ting-Lu and Arceus-Ground for them. (I think Eternatus is worth mentioning, and Arceus-Ground doesn't check Calyrex-S and is a pretty poor Miraidon check) Miraidon—as well as Koraidon, whose checks are pressured by Kyogre as well—can also safely pivot Kyogre in. (the pivoting point got lost)
