Done [DOU] Ogerpon-W

[big pichu]

Ogerpon-Wellspring (F) @ Wellspring Mask
Ability: Water Absorb
Tera Type: Water
EVs: 200 HP / 124 Atk / 184 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Ivy Cudgel
- Horn Leech
- Follow Me
- Spiky Shield

Ogerpon-W's timid appearance masks a leviathan of the DOU metagame! While DOU may seem saturated with bulky Grass-types, Ogerpon-W drowns out the competition with a combination of typing, ability, and a seemingly bottomless well of moves. Follow Me provides redirection that can both protect allies from powerful offensive moves and redirect Amoonguss's Spore, rendering it harmless. Horn Leech and a Special Defense boost from Tera provide recovery and bulk, perfectly complementing its typing to create a menace that can both redirect damage and threaten out Pokemon with its Ivy Cudgel. The EV spread lets Ogerpon-W outpace Landorus, the main spread Ground-type attacker, and survive Tera Stellar Chien-Pao's Icicle Crash. Ogerpon-W works best when it can support setup threats like Archaludon and Gouging Fire, redirecting Ground-type attacks away, giving them free reign to terrorize the battlefield. However, watch out! Ogerpon-W can't do much damage to Grass- and Dragon-types like Rillaboom and Raging Bolt. Therefore, it appreciates teammates like Chien-Pao and Gouging Fire that can threaten and remove these foes, preventing it from becoming setup fodder.

Moving to QC, but I want to revise certain parts of this since it seems somewhat shaky
my drafts were too verbose ;_;

Ogerpon-Wellspring's timid appearance masks a leviathan of the DOU metagame! While DOU may seem saturated with bulky Grass types, Ogerpon drowns out the competition with a combination of typing, ability, and access to a seemingly bottomless well of moves. Follow Me provides redirection that can both protect allies from powerful offensive moves and redirect Amoonguss' Spore to itself, rendering it harmless. Horn Leech and a special Special Defense boost on Tera provide recovery and bulk, perfectly complementing its Grass/Water typing to create a menace that can both redirect damage and threaten out Pokemon with its Ivy Cudgel. Ogerpon works best when it can support powerful offensive options that can use the redirection. combine this sentence with the next i.e. "...can support powerful setup threats like Archaludon and Gouging Fire redirecting ground type attacks for them... " or something of the sort Setup threats like Archaludon and Gouging Fire appreciate a redirector that resists Ground moves, giving them free reign to terrorize the battlefield. However, watch out! Ogerpon can't do much damage to Grass types like Rillaboom or Dragon types like Raging Bolt. add some teammates that help with this instead of the next line Ogerpon will often have to switch to avoid taking heavy hits or becoming setup fodder!

i would also mention that the ev spread outspeeds lando which it massively threatens with cudgel (which is sort of buried in this, you can probably write a new sentence about it - don't mix the cudgel sentence and ev spread sentence, though) quite a few characters left to work with here so should be able to fit it all!

sry for delay 1/1 after implementation

The EV spread lets Ogerpon-W outpace Landorus, the main spread Ground-type attacker, and survive Tera Stellar Chien-Pao's Icicle Crash. (flows better with the sequence of moves > evs > teammates, & discussed on doucord of mentioning the other benchmark) Ogerpon-W works best when it can support setup threats like Archaludon and Gouging Fire, (ac) redirecting Ground-type attacks away from them, giving them free reign to terrorize the battlefield. The speed on this spread makes Ogerpon just fast enough to outpace Landorus-I, scaring out the main spread Ground attacker. However, watch out! Ogerpon-W can't do much damage to Grass- and Dragon-types like Rillaboom and or Dragon types like Raging Bolt. Therefore, it appreciates teammates like Chien-Pao and Gouging Fire which that can threaten and remove these foes that Ogerpon is unable to cover, preventing it from becoming setup fodder.

GP Team done
Implemented this onto the OP myself since it goes out tomorrow
