Kingambit is one of Ubers UU's most threatening wallbreakers and late-game cleaner thanks to its naturally high Attack, decent defenses, an incredible ability in Supreme Overlord, access to Swords Dance, and great offensive typing allowing it to threaten Pokemon like Solgaleo, Mewtwo, Giratina, and Clefable. While Kowtow Cleave is normally preferred to have a more consistent Dark-type STAB move than Sucker Punch, Low Kick is an option to hit threats like Dialga and opposing Kingambit for super effective damage. Sucker Punch is extremely valuable, allowing Kingambit to operate as a revenge killer against Pokemon like Mewtwo, Deoxys, and Choice Scarf Kyurem-W. Black Glasses boosts Kingambit's Dark-type STAB moves, making it a more powerful threat and achieve valuable damage thresholds like OHKOing offensive Arceus formes after a Swords Dance when five teammates have fallen. Alternatively, Leftovers can give Kingambit a slight amount of consistent recovery, and Lum Berry allows it to avoid crippling status from Pokemon like Dialga and Giratina. Tera Flying gives Kingambit a great defensive typing, flipping the matchup against Pokemon like Great Tusk, Landorus-T, and Zamazenta-C. 12 Speed EVs allow Kingambit to outspeed paralyzed Arceus formes. Kingambit fits best on offensive and hyper offensive teams looking for a powerful physical wallbreaker and late-game cleaner. Kingambit's inability to deal much damage against bulky Fighting-types like Great Tusk and Zamazenta-C can be problematic, so Pokemon that can take these threats on like Palkia-O, Landorus, Chi-Yu, and Palafin are nice to have. Kingambit can remove Psychic- and Ghost-types like Mewtwo, Giratina, and Gholdengo, which allows partner Pokemon like Zamazenta-C have an easier time attempting a sweep themselves.

Kingambit is one of Ubers UU's most threatening wallbreakers and setup sweepers thanks to its naturally high Attack and decent defensives, an incredible ability in Supreme Overlord, Swords Dance, and a great offensive typing allowing it to threaten Pokemon like Solgaleo, Mewtwo, Giratina, and Clefable. While Kowtow Cleave is normally preferred to have a more consistent Dark-type STAB move rather than being forced to rely on Sucker Punch, Low Kick is an option to hit threats like Zamazenta-C, Arceus-Dark, and opposing Kingambit for super-effective damage. Sucker Punch is extremely valuable, allowing Kingambit to operate as a revenge killer on Pokemon like Mewtwo, Deoxys, and Choice Scarf Kyurem-W. Black Glasses boosts Kingambit's Dark-type STAB moves, making it a more powerful threat.(maybe mention damage thresholds glasses hit here, like how five fallen sucker OHKOS Arceus at +2 or its boost allowing an immediate KO on Giratina) Alternatively, Leftovers can give Kingambit a slight amount of consistent recovery and Lum Berry allows Kingambit to avoid crippling status moves("moves" is unnecessary, since Lum is blocking status rather than the moves) from Pokemon like Dialga and Giratina. Tera Flying gives Kingambit a great defensive typing, flipping the matchup against Pokemon like Great Tusk, Landorus-T, and Zamazenta-C. 12 Speed EVs allow Kingambit to outspeed paralyzed Arceus formes. Kingambit fits best on offensive and hyper-offensive teams looking for a powerful physical wallbreaker and setup sweeper. Kingambit's inability to deal much damage against bulky physical attackers Fighting-types(what makes zama struggle into these isn't that they are phys attackers, but that theyre fighting types, if you like you could also use "bulky resists" or something like that)like Great Tusk and Zamazenta-C can be problematic, so Pokemon who can take these threats on like Palkia-O and Palafin (Zamazenta can beat both of these pokemon after an Idef, maybe add an example like Chi-Yu or Landorus here who can beat it) are nice to have.

Kingambit is one of Ubers UU's most threatening wallbreakers (late game cleaner too?) and setup sweepers thanks to its naturally high Attack and decent defensives (Dex info but if you don't wanna remove it, defenses not defensives.), an incredible ability in Supreme Overlord, Swords Dance, and great offensive typing allowing it to threaten Pokemon like Solgaleo, Mewtwo, Giratina, and Clefable. While Kowtow Cleave is normally preferred to have a more consistent Dark-type STAB move rather than being forced to rely on Sucker Punch, Low Kick is an option to hit threats like Zamazenta-C, Arceus-Dark (I don't like these examples as Kingambit is deathly afraid of burns from Arceus-Dark and any fighting move from Zamazenta-C. Maybe Dialga and Kyurem-W instead?), and opposing Kingambit for super-effective damage. Sucker Punch is extremely valuable, allowing Kingambit to operate as a revenge killer on Pokemon like Mewtwo, Deoxys, and Choice Scarf Kyurem-W. Black Glasses boosts Kingambit's Dark-type STAB moves, making it a more powerful threat and allowing it to get valuable rolls like OHKOing Arceus after a Swords Dance when five teammates have fallen. Alternatively, Leftovers can give Kingambit a slight amount of consistent recovery and Lum Berry allows Kingambit to avoid crippling status from Pokemon like Dialga and Giratina. Tera Flying gives Kingambit a great defensive typing, flipping the matchup against Pokemon like Great Tusk, Landorus-T, and Zamazenta-C. 12 Speed EVs allow Kingambit to outspeed paralyzed Arceus formes.

Kingambit's inability to deal much damage against bulky Fighting-types like Great Tusk and Zamazenta-C can be problematic, so Pokemon that can take these threats on like Palkia-O, Landorus, Chi-Yu, and Palafin are nice to have. (Mention what Kingambit can do for its teammates, i.e eliminating Psychic- and Ghost-types so other Pokemon can sweep, like Zamazenta-C).

Black Glasses boosts Kingambit's Dark-type STAB moves, making it a more powerful threat and allowing it to get valuable rolls achieve valuable damage thresholds like OHKOing Arceus offensive Arceus formes (I'm assuming this is what you mean given Arceus-Normal isn't legal) after a Swords Dance when five teammates have fallen.

Kingambits ability to Kingambit can (last sentence started with "Kingambit's inability", so this is a bit less repetitive) remove Psychic- and Ghost-types like Mewtwo, Giratina, and Gholdengo, (comma) which allows partner Pokemon like Zamazenta-C have an easier time to attempt attempting a sweep themselves.
