Kingambit is a highly threatening sweeper thanks to Swords Dance boosting its already high Attack, powerful STAB priority in Sucker Punch, and a unique ability in Supreme Overlord. Kingambit also provides a team with notable defensive utility, as it checks dangerous foes such as Gholdengo, Mega Latios, and Iron Crown thanks to its typing and access to Sucker Punch. Knock Off is Kingambit's most powerful STAB move under most circumstances, and it can remove items from Pokemon that check it, such as Great Tusk, Zamazenta, and Landorus-T. Sucker Punch is mandatory to make up for Kingambit's low Speed, allowing it to revenge kill faster threats such as the aforementioned Gholdengo and Mega Latios as well as others such as Ogerpon-W, Volcarona, and Iron Moth. Low Kick is the preferred coverage to hit foes such as opposing Kingambit, Melmetal, Ferrothorn, and Ting-Lu, as it OHKOes all of them after Stealth Rock at +2. Iron Head is an alternative that hits Clefable and Mega Diancie, but its targets are generally less important and Kingambit must be very healthy if it hopes to beat the latter one-on-one. Black Glasses gives Kingambit a notable boost to its Dark-type STAB moves, letting it hit important benchmarks such as OHKOing offensive Gholdengo as well as, at +2, Ogerpon-W with Sucker Punch and greatly improving Knock Off's damage rolls into important defensive Pokemon such as Alomomola and Toxapex, especially with Supreme Overlord active. Air Balloon gives Kingambit a one-time opportunity to dodge revenge killing attempts by or set up in the face of Ground-types such as Landorus-T, Gliscor, and Garchomp. Leftovers gives Kingambit passive recovery and improves its longevity, letting it check Gholdengo throughout a game for its team. An Adamant nature is preferred to hit as hard as possible, but Jolly allows Kingambit to, at worst, Speed tie with opposing Kingambit as well as outrun a few other notable threats such as Moltres, Ursaluna, and Mega Mawile. Supreme Overlord powers up Kingambit as its allies faint; this becomes incredibly dangerous in late-game scenarios, as Kingambit gains a large damage boost if many or all of its teammates have been taken down. Defiant can be situationally useful on certain hyper offense teams that value its ability to punish Defog attempts from Gliscor, Zapdos, and Landorus-T, as well as punishing Intimidate from the last one; this is generally best used with Air Balloon to protect Kingambit from Gliscor and Landorus-T. However, Supreme Overlord is generally more consistent, and hyper offense teams often have better ways to punish or outright deny Defog.

Kingambit fits on many offensive teams thanks to the immense amount of pressure it exerts while also giving such teams a check to dangerous Ghost- and Psychic-types such as Gholdengo, Iron Crown, and Mega Latios. Kingambit's presence as a top threat in the metagame means that every team has a method of dealing with it, usually through faster Dark-resistant Pokemon such as Great Tusk, Zamazenta, Iron Valiant, and Hisuian Samurott; these are often backed up by secondary answers such as defensive Landorus-T, Alomomola, and Moltres. Kingambit can help itself out early-game by spamming Knock Off into these threats in order to remove Heavy-Duty Boots from Great Tusk, Zamazenta, and Alomomola. This strategy pairs very well with entry hazard setters, making teammates such as Landorus-T, Ferrothorn, and Gliscor great partners. The latter two are also capable of setting Spikes, which wear down Fighting-types like Urshifu-R for Kingambit. A teammate that can pivot into Fighting-types is also mandatory, as Kingambit tends to invite them into battle. Zapdos, Moltres, defensive Landorus-T, and Toxapex are good teammates as a result. Psychic- and Fairy-type offensive teammates also pair well with Kingambit, since they scare many of its Fighting- and Dark-type answers. Mega Latios, Iron Crown, Mega Diancie, or Iron Valiant combine with Kingambit to create a brutal offensive core, while the Psychic-types in particular appreciate Kingambit threatening Galarian Slowking and Gholdengo. Despite being a Steel-type, Kingambit fears Tapu Lele due to Psychic Terrain blocking Sucker Punch and it commonly carrying coverage moves that target Kingambit's weaknesses, so solid Tapu Lele checks such as Gholdengo and Melmetal are good teammates.

Kingambit is a highly threatening sweeper thanks to Swords Dance boosting its already high attack, powerful STAB priority in Sucker Punch, and a unique ability in Supreme Overlord that jacks its power up even further in late game situations kinda filler. It also provides a team with notable defensive utility, as it checks dangerous opponents such as Dragapult, Gholdengo, and Mega Latios thanks to its typing and access to Sucker Punch. Knock Off is Kingambit's most powerful STAB move under most circumstances, and it can remove items from Pokemon that would otherwise check it, such as Great Tusk, Zamazenta, and Landorus-T. Sucker Punch is mandatory to make up for Kingambit's low Speed stat and allows it to blitz past or revenge kill faster threats such as the aforementioned Dragapult, Gholdengo and Mega Latios. Low Kick is the preferred coverage to hit foes such as opposing Kingambit, Ferrothorn, Melmetal, (AC) and Ting-Lu, as it OHKOes all of them after Stealth Rock. Iron Head is an alternative that hits Clefable and Mega Diancie, but its targets are generally less useful and Kingambit must be very healthy if it hopes to beat the latter in a 1v1. Black Glasses give Kingambit a notable boost to its Dark-type STAB moves, letting them hit important benchmarks such as OHKOing offensive Gholdengo with Sucker Punch, OHKOing Ogerpon-W with Sucker Punch at +2, and greatly improving Knock Off's damage rolls into important defensive Pokemon such as Alomomola and Toxapex, especially with Supreme Overlord active.

An Adamant Nature is preferred to hit as hard as possible, but Jolly allows Kingambit to at worst Speed tie with opposing Kingambit as well as outrun a few other notable threats such as Ursaluna and Mega Mawile also outspeeds moltres so might wanna add that. Supreme Overlord powers up Kingambit as its allies faint; this becomes incredibly dangerous in late game scenarios, as Kingambit gains a 50% damage boost if all of its allies have been taken down. filler Defiant can be situationally useful on certain hyper offense teams that value its ability to punish Defog attempts from Gliscor, Zapdos, and Landorus-T, as well as punishing Intimidate from the latter; this is generally best used with Air Balloon to protect Kingambit from Gliscor and Landorus-T.

Kingambit is a highly threatening sweeper thanks to Swords Dance boosting its already high attack, powerful STAB priority in Sucker Punch, and a unique ability in Supreme Overlord. It also provides a team with notable defensive utility, as it checks dangerous opponents such as Dragapult maybe replace this with something like Iron Crown, Gholdengo, and Mega Latios thanks to its typing and access to Sucker Punch. Knock Off is Kingambit's most powerful STAB move under most circumstances, and it can remove items from Pokemon that would otherwise check it, such as Great Tusk, Zamazenta, and Landorus-T. Sucker Punch is mandatory to make up for Kingambit's low Speed stat and allows it to blitz past or revenge kill faster threats such as the aforementioned Dragapult also you kinda just repeat the same 3 mons you just mentioned, would like to have different mentions, like Volc, Iron Moth, Ogerpon Forms or Tapu Koko which would come in and revenge kill it otherwise, Gholdengo, and Mega Latios. Low Kick is the preferred coverage to hit foes such as opposing Kingambit, Melmetal, Ferrothorn, and Ting-Lu, as it OHKOes all of them after Stealth Rock at +2. Iron Head is an alternative that hits Clefable and Mega Diancie, but its targets are generally less useful and Kingambit must be very healthy if it hopes to beat the latter in a 1v1. Black Glasses give Kingambit a notable boost to its Dark-type STAB moves, letting them hit important benchmarks such as OHKOing offensive Gholdengo with Sucker Punch, OHKOing Ogerpon-W with Sucker Punch at +2 you do this almost every time without Black Glasses, I would change or just say guarantee a KO, and greatly improving Knock Off's damage rolls into important defensive Pokemon such as Alomomola and Toxapex, especially with Supreme Overlord active. Air Balloon gives Kingambit an one-time opportunity to dodge revenge killing attempts by or set up in the face of Ground-types such as Landorus-T, Gliscor, and Garchomp.

Kingambit fits on many offensive teams thanks to the immense amount of offensive (repetitive) pressure it exerts while also giving such teams a needed (implying all offensive teams ever are weak into Ghost- & Psychic-types is a bit too out there) check to dangerous Ghost- and Psychic-types such as Gholdengo, Iron Crown, and Mega Latios.
