[SET COMMENTS]
Farigiraf functions well as a supportive and offensive Pokemon. After a Throat Spray boost, Psychic OHKOes Amoonguss and 2HKOs Flutter Mane. Twin Beam reliably OHKOes Focus Sash and Psychic-weak Pokemon like Urshifu-R and Mienshao. Hyper Voice deals consistent damage and activates Throat Spray. The EV spread allows Farigiraf to survive Adamant Koraidon’s Flare Blitz and Kyogre’s Water Spout. Throat Spray powers up Farigiraf's already powerful attacks after a Hyper Voice. This allows it to then pick up KOs on foes like Koraidon. Tera Fairy is used on Farigiraf to resist powerful super effective attacks from Dark-types like Urshifu-S and Chi-Yu along with Fairy being a great neutral type in the metagame. Tera Normal sheds Farigiraf's Dark weakness and allows it to deal massive damage with Hyper Voice, 2HKOing on Pokemon like Miraidon and Clefairy.

Farigiraf has to be careful of powerful Dark-type attacks from Chi-Yu and Incineroar. A great partner for Farigiraf is Kyogre because it appreciates Farigiraf blocking powerful Grassy Glides and Thunderclaps as well as Fake Out. Other Pokemon like Incineroar and Rillaboom are also great partners, as they offer Fake Out support, allowing Farigiraf to set up Trick Room and, through Hyper Voice, Throat Spray. Urshifu-R is another amazing partner because it can hit the annoying Steel- and Dark-types that keep Farigiraf in check while also synergizing well with the aforementioned partners. It also appreciates Farigiraf's nullification of Fake Out, Thunderclap, and Grassy Glide as well as it removing Amoonguss.

Farigiraf is a amazing support and offensive Pokemon alike. (what are you trying to say with this? Change the phrasing to something like "Farigiraf can function as an amazing support and offensive Pokemon.") With powerful STAB attacks and create coverage options (eh not really much coverage on this set), this Pokemon is a force to be reckoned with. With Shadow Ball, Pokemon such as Calyrex-Shadow and Lunala are completely nullified. (removed from set) Even bulky Pokemon like Iron Hands and Amoonguss are scared to eat a Psychic Noise/Psychic/Twin Beam take a Psychic attack from Farigiraf. Twin Beam is used on this set to reliably OHKO Focus Sash and Psychic weak Pokemon like Urshifu-R, Iron Valiant, (not popular enough) and Mienshao. Shadow Ball, as mentioned before, allows Farigiraf to take out Ghost and Psychic types which it already walls, just can't take out in 1-2 hits reliably. Psychic Noise is a choice in this set to deny healing moves such as Drain Punch from Iron Hands, Pollen Puff from Amoonguss, and even Draining Kiss from Calyrex-Shadow. Imprison is for the more fast-pace teams, denying Trick Room teams that heavily rely on it. (all were removed from the set) Throat Spray is the item of choice here to power up Farigiraf's already powerful attacks. This allows you to then pick up KOs on stuff like Koraidon and Whimsicott. The spread is a basic 252/252/4 spread based on maximizing power and still having respectable bulk. (the format says not to include 252/252 stuff. Could you also join the smogonvgc discord linked here and ask in the analysis talk channel to see if there's a spread someone has?)Tera Fairy is one of the two Terastilizations used on Farigiraf (not needed) is used as it allows you to eat powerful super effective attacks from Dark/Bug types (not relevant enough, add a few examples, also talk about how it's a good neutral type). Tera Normal allows you to deal massive damage with big, explosive Hyper Voice hits. (any specific calcs?)

With Farigiraf, you have to be careful of powerful Dark attacks from Chi-Yu, Kingambit, etc. (pretty sure this is not used in analyses, mention incin too. Also gambit isn't the most relevant mon atm, put urshifu dark or something over it) Another threat is powerful U-turns from common meta threats like Rillaboom, Urshifu, and even stuff like Assault Vest Incineroar, another great check to this set. Tera allows you to get around this matchup pretty fairly, but is still terrifying. (not needed) (could you also provide examples of partners that help against these mons?) Some great partners include powerful Trick Room abusers like Ursaluna-Bloodmoon and Calyrex-Ice, which appreciate not only the setup of Trick Room, but the chip damage and even removal of certain threats that Farigiraf can provide. (I don't really love this as none of the spray farigs used either of these mons as partners at naic) Focus Sash users and stronger, frail Pokemon alike enjoy Farigiraf for support because it can deny priority Fake Out, Shadow Sneak, Aqua Jet and Grassy Glide which can break Focus Sash or even deal massive damage. One of these Pokemon that really shine is Chi-Yu. This is because Chi-Yu can boost Farigiraf's already powerful attacks to extraordinary levels. (none of the spray farig at naic had chi yu as a partner, could you add more relevant examples? Additionally, you aren't giving why these mons benefit from the block. Realistically what are shadow sneak and glide doing to chi yu, your only example here? also incineroar, urshifu-r, rillaboom, tornadus, and kyogre seemed to be common partners for spray farig, mention those please.)

(I asked luna for a spread, she told me that you should use 180 hp, 0 attack, 92 defense, 156 special attack, 76 special defense, and 4 speed with a modest nature. allows you to live a flare blitz from koraidon and a origin pulse from mystic water kyogre in rain. Add these calcs to the calcs section of the analysis.)

Farigiraf functions great as a supportive and offensive Pokemon. (RC) With powerful STAB attacks, this Pokemon Farigiraf is a force to be reckoned with. Even bulky Pokemon like Iron Hands and Amoonguss are scared to eat a Psychic attack from Farigiraf. (mention what psychic does, just offers more damage overall. Also +1 psychic againt 252/76 amoonguss is a guaranteed ohko with psychic but not twin beam.) Twin Beam is used on this set to reliably OHKO Focus Sash and Psychic weak Pokemon like Urshifu-R and Mienshao. Throat Spray is the item of choice here to power up Farigiraf's already powerful attacks. This allows you to then pick up KOs on stuff like Koraidon and Whimsicott (+1 twin beam isn't a guaranteed ohko btw +1 156+ SpA Farigiraf Twin Beam (2 hits) vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Whimsicott: 116-140 (85.9 - 103.7%) -- approx. 18.8% chance to OHKO, psychic is, but sash whims would always live a hit from psychic farig, while covert run bulk, allowing them to live. I'd remove this if I were you.). Tera Fairy is used on Farigiraf as it allows you to eat powerful super effective attacks from Dark types like Urshifu-S and Chi-Yu. Tera Fairy is also a great neutral type, as it has few natural weaknesses and great resistances. (just fluff, combine the neutral type thing into the first sentence.) Tera Normal allows you to deal massive damage with big, explosive Hyper Voice hits, picking KOs on Pokemon such as Chien-Pao (they all run sash), and clean 2HKOs on Pokemon like Urshifu (which form? if both, make it "the urshifu formes) and Tornadus. (normal also isn't needed for either of these ohkos because of throat spray, remove and substitute with different examples if you can find any)

With Farigiraf, you have Farigiraf has to be careful of powerful Dark attacks from Chi-Yu and Incineroar. Another threat is powerful U-turns from common meta threats like Rillaboom, Urshifu-R, and even stuff like Assault Vest Incineroar, another great check to this set Farigiraf. Some great partners to counter these Pokemon include Iron Hands and Urshifu (either forme) (2 things; first, urshifu-s and hands didn't see play w/ farig at naic, main event we're looking at atm. Also, you don't put formes in parantheses, you do "the urshifu formes" in this case.). Some great partners for Farigiraf also include Pokemon like Kyogre, which don't appreciate taking damage before they can move. (mention tclap+glide+fake out, this wording is just weird without mentioning examples.)Other Pokemon like Incineroar and Rillaboom are also great partners as they can then guarantee winning the Fake Out war they offer Fake Out pressure, allowing Farigiraf to set up Throat Spray with Hyper Voice and Trick Room (Fake out pressure is vital to farig for setup potential). Tornadus is another great partner as it can, thanks to Armor Tail, set Tailwind and weather safely, avoiding annoying disturbance in Encore from Whimsicott or Taunt from opposing Tornadus. (kinda on me, probably not a great example since torn more synergizes with farigs partners) Urshifu-R is another amazing partner which can hit the annoying Steel and Dark types which keep Farigiraf in check, while syncing well with the Pokemon mentioned before like Kyogre and Tornadus. synergizing well with the aformentioned partners. (mention incin specifically with the partners)

Farigiraf functions great as a supportive and offensive Pokemon. With powerful STAB attacks, Farigiraf is a force to be reckoned with.(Not really neccessary) Even bulky Pokemon like Iron Hands and Amoonguss are scared to eat a Psychic from Farigiraf.(Probably change this to something like "farigiraf uses psychic to threaten Pokemon such as:" right now it doesnt really fit) Twin Beam is used on this set to reliably OHKO Focus Sash and Psychic weak Pokemon like Urshifu-R and Mienshao.

A great partners to counter these Pokemon is Urshifu-R, which can threaten them with Close Combat (You mention this later). Another great partner for Farigiraf is Kyogre, which doesn't like taking powerful Grassy Glides and Thunderclaps, along with pesky Fake Outs. Other Pokemon like Incineroar and Rillaboom are also great partners as they offer Fake Out pressure, allowing Farigiraf to set up activate Throat Spray with Hyper Voice and or set up Trick Room. Urshifu-R is another amazing partner which can hit the annoying Steel and Dark types which keep Farigiraf in check, while synergizing well with the aformentioned partners, such as Incineroar and Kyogre.

Farigiraf functions great as a supportive and offensive Pokemon. With powerful STAB attacks, Farigiraf is a force to be reckoned with. Even bulky Pokemon like Iron Hands and Amoonguss are scared to eat a Psychic from Farigiraf. (This is unnecessarily long for suggesting that Farigiraf does good damage, Point out how it OHKOs Amoonguss and 2HKOs Flutter Mane after a boost, because as this is worded, Twin Beam is better in every way.) Twin Beam is used on this set to reliably OHKO Focus Sash and Psychic weak Pokemon like Urshifu-R and Mienshao. Throat Spray is the item of choice here to power up Farigiraf's already powerful attacks, after a Hyper Voice (Should probably make Hyper Voice its own statement before this, its not the most obvious move. Should also point out the calls Flarefox gave you.). This allows you it to then pick up KOs on stuff like Koraidon. Tera Fairy is used on Farigiraf as it allows you it (The Pokemon can not be referred to by you.) eat resist powerful super effective attacks from Dark types like Urshifu-S and Chi-Yu, along with Fairy being a great neutral type. Tera Normal sheds Farigiraf's Dark-type weakness and allows you it to deal massive damage with big, explosive Hyper Voice hits, picking clean 2HKOs on Pokemon like Miraidon and Clefairy.

Farigiraf has to be careful of powerful Dark attacks from Chi-Yu and Incineroar. Another threat is powerful U-turns from common meta threats like Rillaboom, Urshifu-R, and Assault Vest Incineroar, another great check to Farigiraf. (Doing 30% and allowing Farigiraf to set Trick Room is a bad outcome for all of these, especially when they can't use their priority.) A great partner for Farigiraf is Kyogre, which doesn't like taking powerful Grassy Glides and Thunderclaps, along with pesky Fake Outs. Other Pokemon like Incineroar and Rillaboom are also great partners as they offer Fake Out pressure, allowing Farigiraf to set up Trick Room and through Hyper Voice, Throat Spray with Hyper Voice and Trick Room. (The way it's worded suggests that Throat Spray is activated by Trick Room) Urshifu-R is another amazing partner which can hit the annoying Steel and Dark types which keep Farigiraf in check, while synergizing well with the aformentioned partners, such as Incineroar and Kyogre. (Bring up how it makes Urshifu immune to the same priority moves, and Fake Out if Scarf.)

A great partner for Farigiraf is Kyogre because it appreciates Farigiraf blocking powerful Grassy Glides and Thunderclaps as well as Fake Out. , which doesn't like taking powerful Grassy Glides and Thunderclaps, along with pesky Fake Outs(rephrased to add some direct reasoning on why kyogre's a great partner) Other Pokemon like Incineroar and Rillaboom are also great partners,(comma) as they offer Fake Out support pressure, allowing Farigiraf to set up Trick Room and,(comma) through Hyper Voice Voicd, Throat Spray. Urshifu-R is another amazing partner which because it can hit the annoying Steel-(hyphen) and Dark-types (hyphen) which that keep Farigiraf in check,(remove comma) while also synergizing well with the aformentioned aforementioned partners. (period), such as Incineroar and Kyogre.(aforementioned already implied this) Choice Scarf Urshifu-R It also appreciates the Farigiraf's nullification of Fake Out, Thuderclap Thunderclap, and Grassy Glide as well as it removing Amoonguss. Urshifu-R also likes the removal of Amoonguss, thanks to Farigiraf. (if you consider Urshifu-R and scarf Urshifu-R to be different them fuse the two Urshifu-R sentences and put scarf on its own) (something like 'Urshifu-R is another amazing partner because it can hit the annoying Steel- and Dark-types that keep Farigiraf in check while also synergizing well with the aforementioned partners, and in return, Farigiraf can remove Amoonguss' would work if this is the case, keeping the scarf sentence as-is)
