[SET COMMENTS]

* Will-O-Wisp and Intimidate make Paldean Tauros-F a potent check to physical attackers, notably enabling it reliably check Kingambit.

* Raging Bull provides a powerful STAB attack that can also break screens, allowing Paldean Tauros-F’s teammates to clean up more easily.

* Body Press is valuable because unlike Close Combat, it doesn’t cause defense drops.

* Will-O-Wisp allows Paldean Tauros-F to take on a wider array of physical attackers by threatening burn.

* Rock Tomb allows Paldean Tauros-F to check Volcarona despite its meager Special Defense.

* Paldean Tauros-F should generally avoid Terastallizing, as its typing is a big part of what lets it act as such a sturdy check to Kingambit and other massive threats, such as Baxcalibur.

Items
==========
* Leftovers makes up for Paldean Tauros-F’s lack of manual recovery.

* Sitrus Berry can be used as an alternative to Leftovers if they are otherwise unavailable.

* Heavy-Duty Boots is worth considering, as it allows Paldean Tauros-F to switch around more freely in after entry hazards are set.

[SET COMMENTS]

* Paldean Tauros-F is fast enough to outspeed key threats such as Hydreigon and Mimikyu, making an offensive set viable.

* Raging Bull might not be as powerful as Flare Blitz, but its ability to break Reflect and Light Screen make it an essential attack.

* Flame Charge can give Paldean Tauros-F an unexpected late-game win condition, letting it outspeed threats such as Dragapult and Meowscarada.

* Rock Tomb's speed control is useful when sacrificing Paldean Tauros-F against a threat and prevents Dragonite from getting easy Speed boosts.

* Despite this set's offensive nature, Will-O-Wisp is good for punishing Dragonite, Dragapult, and foes that may Terrastallize, such as Kingambit.ADD PERIOD

* Bulk Up is another potentially surprising win condition in the late stages of the game, and helps against Corviknight.

Tera Types
========

* **Grass**: A Grass Tera type makes Paldean Tauros-F far less vulnerable to Rotom-W and Palafin-H.

* **Fairy**: When paired with Tera Blast, a Fairy Tera type means Dragon-types will no longer wall Paldean Tauros-F.

Items
========

* **Eject Pack**: With Close Combat, this will give Paldean Tauros-F a powerful, one-time use pivot option.

* **Assault Vest**: Patching up Paldean Tauros-F's mediocre Special Defense gives it a better shot against Dragapult and Rotom-W when Terastallizing.

* **Mirror Herb**: Mirror Herb punishes setup sweepers even more effectively and pairs especially well with Intimidate.

* **Life Orb**: This high value item can be tough to slot in, but the increased power makes sweeping with a Speed boost much easier.

* With access to both Will-o-Wisp and Intimidate, Paldean Tauros-B makes for a potent check to physical attackers, notably being one of the few reliable ans

The rest of the sentence seems to be missing, but otherwise this looks good!


I'd make a mention of Mirror Herb as an item for the offensive set, punishing SD and DD can come in handy along with Intimidate and WoW pressure.

QC approved for both!

I was wondering about this, but didn't ask before when it was only a bulky set. Now, though, could Trailblaze work? Over Flame Charge, since fire is already there. It gives some coverage, at the cost of STAB not adding 25 BP. Idk, just curious.
