[SET COMMENTS]

* Physical Regieleki aims to take advantage of the element of surprise, as most Regieleki are specially oriented. Regieleki's Transistor-boosted Wild Charge also preys on Pokemon that both are Electric-weak and have lower Defense than Special Defense,such as Tapu Fini and Galarian Moltres. This set is also much more willing to be Dynamaxed due to its better range of coverage.

* Bounce is used for Max Airstream, and it serves to tackle common Flying-weak Pokemon such as Urshifu-S, Rillaboom, and Venusaur.

* Assurance is a good coverage move that can hit Pokemon such as Spectrier and Dragapult for good damage. It also gives access to Max Darkness, dropping the opposing Pokemon's Special Defense for special attackers such as Galarian Moltres and Spectrier. Explosion is an option that provides a high Base Power option, and lowers the foe's Speed in Dynamax, and allows Regieleki to get one last powerful spread hit in before it goes down.

* Electroweb is another option that offers a consistent form of speed control outside of Dynamax while also dealing substantially more damage to Pokemon with lower Special Defense, such as Torkoal, as Max Lightning than Wild Charge does.

* Magnet is an alternate item option that is generally more potent when using Electroweb and Wild Charge on the same set. Focus Sash provides Regieleki some extra durability, allowing it to fire off more attacks when Dynamaxed rather than wasting its potential.

* A Jolly nature is preferred when Regieleki is exclusively using physical moves; however, a Hasty nature is valid when using Electroweb, notably giving Regieleki a 50% chance to KO Torkoal with its special Max Lightning in Electric Terrain.

hey

might as well give wild charge a shoutout somewhere, you can do it in the overview point since you kinda hint at it anyways. (i really like using these flexible points btw)

it's never clicking bounce, just say it's for airstream which boosts speed (more important) and hits x y z

emphasize electroweb is just good for physically defensive pokemon (or rather, those with much worse SpDef) // kartana also comes to mind here

good good QC 1/1

* Physical Regieleki aims to take advantage of the element of surprise, (AC) as most Regieleki tend to be are specially oriented. Regieleki's Transistor-boosted Wild Charge also preys on Pokemon who are not only Electric-weak but that both are Electric-weak and have lower Defense than Special Defense, (AC) such as Tapu Fini and Galarian Moltres. It's This set is also much more willing to be Dynamaxed due to its better range of coverage.

* Bounce is used for Max Airstream, and it serves to tackle common Flying-weak Pokemon such as Urshifu-S, Rillaboom, (AC) and Venusaur.

* Assurance is a good Dark-type coverage move that can hit Pokemon such as Spectrier and Dragapult for good damage. It also doubles as gives access to Max Darkness, dropping the opposing Pokemon's Special Defense for special attackers such as Galarian Moltres and Spectrier. Explosion is an option for Max Strike that provides a high Base Power option when Dynamaxed, and lowers the foe's Speed in Dynamax, (I imagine this is the idea?) and it allows Regieleki to get one last powerful spread hit in before it goes down.

* Electroweb is another option that offers a consistent form of speed control outside of Dynamax (RC) while also dealing substantially more damage to Pokemon with lower Special Defense, (AC) such as Torkoal, (AC) as Max Lightning than Wild Charge does.

* Life Orb is the primary item of choice on a Physical Regieleki, as it boosts the power of all of its move at the cost of a small amount of recoil. Magnet is another an alternate item option that further improves the power of Regieleki's Electric-type moves and is generally more potent when using Electroweb and Wild Charge on the same set. Focus Sash provides Regieleki some extra durability, (AC) allowing it to fire off more attacks when Dynamaxed rather than wasting its potential.

* A Jolly nature is typically preferred when Regieleki is exclusively using physical moves; however, a Hasty nature is valid when using Electroweb on the set as to not decrease Regieleki's damage output when using it, notably having giving Regieleki a 50% chance to KO Torkoal with its special Max Lightning in Electric Terrain.
