[OVERVIEW]
* Ogerpon-W has a very well-rounded stat spread, a solid typing, and an amazing movepool with great STAB moves, Spiky Shield, and Follow Me which helps it support frailer teammates.
* A great example of a less-bulky teammate is Flutter Mane; Ogerpon-W's ability to redirect moves away from Flutter Mane can help it break through the opposing team with its strong Tera Fairy Dazzling Gleam in just a few turns.
* Another great partner for Ogerpon-W is Kingambit, as it discourages Intimidate, which is one of the few ways to slow down Ogerpon-W's offensive capabilities, and Kingambit can even run a Swords Dance set to set-up with Follow Me support from Ogerpon-W.
* Ogerpon-W is also already a big threat on its own, as it pressures top threats such as Landorus, Incineroar, Flutter Mane, and Urshifu-R, being especially dangerous with Tera. Ogerpon-W does struggle against Rillaboom and Raging Bolt, which resist both STAB types and can hit it super effectively after Tera.

* Horn Leech is the Grass-type move of choice, as Ogerpon-W appreciates the extra longevity, which becomes especially notable when combined with the Special Defense boost provided by Terastallizing.
* The EV spread outspeeds Modest Landorus, OHKOes bulky Flutter Mane after Tera, and survives Rillaboom's terrain-boosted Wood Hammer.
