Incineroar is a bulky pivot that uses its good defensive typing, defenses that are bolstered by Assault Vest, and Intimidate to allow its teammates to switch in safely as well as being a check to Pokemon such as Calyrex-S, Zacian-C, and Rillaboom. U-turn allows Incineroar to switch out and get more use out of Intimidate and Fake Out. Assault Vest lets Incineroar survive attacks such as Ursaluna-B's Tera Normal Blood Moon and Pelipper's Weather Ball at the cost of not being able to use common moves like Parting Shot, Will-O-Wisp, and Taunt. The defensive EVs allow Incineroar to take Choice Specs Miraidon's Electro Drift, Landorus's Earth Power, and Mienshao's Close Combat, as well as Calyrex-I's Glacial Lance after Incineroar Terastallizes.Tera Grass lets Incineroar resist moves such as the former two's STAB attacks as well as Urshifu-R's Surging Strikes, which lets Incineroar remove their items with Knock Off or bring in teammate with U-turn while making Incineroar immune to Amoonguss's Spore and Rage Powder.

Incineroar struggles against Pokemon that can threaten it with super effective damage and ignore Intimidate such as Urshifu-R, Koraidon, Landorus, and Pelipper, with the latter three still hitting it super effectively after it Terastallizes. Partners like Miraidon and Lunala can help against Pokemon that threaten Incineroar such as Urshifu-R, Pelipper, and Landorus. Incineroar pairs well with Pokemon like Miraidon that benefit from being able to pivot and can make sure that Electric Terrain is active. Incineroar also uses Flare Blitz to threaten Grass-types like Rillaboom and Amoonguss that resist Miriadon's STAB Electric-type moves. Lunala is another strong partner for Incineroar, as Fake Out can help Lunala set up Trick Room while Incineroar can help strong Trick Room sweepers such as Ursaluna switch in safely. Incineroar also threatens Calyrex-S, which Lunala otherwise struggles against, with Knock Off.

Incineroar is a bulky pivot that uses its good defensive typing and defenses boosted (Intimidate doesn't technically boost your defense, just lowers opponents attack. Try to rephrase this if you can) by Assault Vest and Intimidate to allow its teammates to switch in safely as well as being a counter check (doesn't just instantly beat these mons, up to you to change) to Pokemon such as Calyrex-S, Zacian-C, and Rillaboom. Fake Out allows Incineroar to disrupt opposing Pokemon by giving Incineroar's teammates opportunities to setup or get an attack off without having to worry about the threat of opposing Pokemon getting the opportunity to attack. (obvious move, kind of also dex info) U-turn is a good pivot move that allows for Incineroar to switch out and get more use out of Intimidate and Fake Out (mention how slow pivot allows another mon to come in safely or smth). Assault Vest gives Incineroar more special bulk at the cost of not being able to use common moves such as Parting Shot, Will-o-Wisp, and Taunt. The defensive EVs as well as Assault Vest (only item on the set) allow Incineroar to live an Electro Drift from Choice Specs Miraidon as well as surviving Surging Strikes from Jolly Urshifu-R (is this really that common? Scarf usually runs adamant, mystic water does too. Even from 156 jolly mystic water shifu it's a roll; anything else the defensive investment is used for?). Tera Grass lets Incineroar resist moves such as Electro Drift from Miraidon and Surging Strikes from Urshifu-R while also becoming immune to Amoonguss's Spore. (resisting discharge from your partner miraidon can be pretty important, maybe mention that, up to you)

Incineroar struggles against Pokemon that can threaten it while ignoring Intimidate such as Urshifu-R, Koraidon, Landorous-I, and Pelipper that can all hit it for super effective damage as well as the latter three also hitting it for super effective after Tera Grass. (what about the partners that help with these weaknesses?) Incineroar pairs well with Pokemon such as Miraidon that benefit from being able to pivot and make sure that Electric Terrain is active. (mention how incin helps against the grasses that resist electric) Lunala is another strong partner for Incineroar as Fake Out can help Lunala set up Trick Room while Incineroar can help strong Trick Room sweepers such as Ursaluna switch in safely. Incineroar also threatens Calyrex-S with Knock Off which Lunala struggles with.

Incineroar is a bulky pivot that uses its good defensive typing and defenses bolstered by Assault Vest and Intimidate to allow its teammates to switch in safely as well as being a counter check (disagree that it's a counter) to Pokemon such as Calyrex-S, Zacian-C, and Rillaboom. U-turn is a good pivot move that allows for Incineroar to switch out and get more use out of Intimidate and Fake Out. Assault Vest gives Incineroar more special bulk at the cost of not being able to use common moves such as Parting Shot, Will-o-Wisp, and Taunt. The defensive EVs allow Incineroar to live an Electro Drift from Choice Specs Miraidon, survive Surging Strikes from Jolly Urshifu-R (I still don't really like this, scarf usually runs adamant and mystic does too, jolly mystic still kos this. Any calcs you could replace this with?) and avoid the OHKO Calyrex-I's Glacial Lance after Incineroar Terastalizes. Tera Grass lets Incineroar resist moves such as Electro Drift from Miraidon and Surging Strikes from Urshifu-R while also becoming immune to Amoonguss's Spore.

Incineroar struggles against Pokemon that can threaten it while ignoring Intimidate such as Urshifu-R, Koraidon, Landorous-I, and Pelipper that can all hit it for super effective damage as well as the latter three also hitting it for super effective after Tera Grass. Partners such as Miriadon and Lunala can help into Pokemon that threaten Incineroar. (anything that helps into lando-I?) Incineroar pairs well with Pokemon such as Miraidon that benefit from being able to pivot and make sure that Electric Terrain is active. Incineroar also threatens the Grass-types that resist Miriadon's STAB Electric moves with Flare Blitz. Lunala is another strong partner for Incineroar as Fake Out can help Lunala set up Trick Room while Incineroar can help strong Trick Room sweepers such as Ursaluna switch in safely. Incineroar also threatens Calyrex-S with Knock Off which Lunala struggles with.

Incineroar is a bulky pivot that uses its good defensive typing and defenses bolstered by Assault Vest and Intimidate to allow its teammates to switch in safely as well as being a check to Pokemon such as Calyrex-S, Zacian-C, and Rillaboom. U-turn is a good pivot move that allows for Incineroar to switch out and get more use out of Intimidate and Fake Out. Assault Vest gives Incineroar more special bulk at the cost of not being able to use common moves such as Parting Shot, Will-o-Wisp, and Taunt (This is worded like dex info, add some examples like taking Tera Normal Ursaluna-B Bloodmoon and Pelipper Weather Ball.). The defensive EVs allow Incineroar to live an Electro Drift from Choice Specs Miraidon, survive one Earth Power from Landorus, Mienshao's Close Combat, and avoid the OHKO Calyrex-I's Glacial Lance after Incineroar Terastalizes (These are all avoiding the OHKO so no need to keep restating.). Tera Grass lets Incineroar resist moves such as Electro Drift from Miraidon and Surging Strikes from Urshifu-R (Why is resisting these that important? Do you consider Landorus/Bloodmoon relevant?) while also becoming immune to Amoonguss's Spore and Rage Powder.

Incineroar struggles against Pokemon that can threaten it while ignoring Intimidate such as Urshifu-R, Koraidon, Landorus, and Pelipper that can all hit it for super effective damage as well as, the latter three also hitting it for super effective after Tera Grass. Partners such as Miriadon and Lunala can help into Pokemon that threaten Incineroar. (Expand on this, what do the two help against? Don't get the Lunala tbh, Farigiraf is a more successful version.) Incineroar pairs well with Pokemon such as Miraidon that benefit from being able to pivot and make sure that Electric Terrain is active. Incineroar also threatens the Grass-types like Rillaboom and Amoonguss that resist Miriadon's STAB Electric moves with Flare Blitz. Lunala is another strong partner for Incineroar as Fake Out can help Lunala set up Trick Room while Incineroar can help strong Trick Room sweepers such as Ursaluna switch in safely. Incineroar also threatens Calyrex-S with Knock Off which Lunala struggles with.

Incineroar is a bulky pivot that uses its good defensive typing,(comma) and defenses that are bolstered by Assault Vest,(comma) and Intimidate to allow its teammates to switch in safely as well as being a check to Pokemon such as Calyrex-S, Zacian-C, and Rillaboom. U-turn is a good pivot move that allows for Incineroar to switch out and get more use out of Intimidate and Fake Out. Assault Vest allows lets Incineroar to live survive attacks such as Ursaluna-Bm's Ursaluna-B's Tera Normal Bloodmoon Blood Moon and Pelipper's Weather Ball at the cost of not being able to use common moves such as like (varying words a bit) Parting Shot, Will-o-Wisp Will-O-Wisp, and Taunt. The defensive EVs allow Incineroar to take live an Electro Drift from Choice Specs Miraidon's Electro Drift, one Earth Power from Landorus's Earth Power, and Mienshao's Close Combat, and as well as Calyrex-I's Glacial Lance after Terastallization Incineroar Terastalizes (I take it that only glacial lance is relevant to the tera point? I changed it under that assumption, but you can change it back if I'm mistaken- also, it may be worth mentioning that the atk drop from intim is necessary? calc says tera grass incin gets blown away by 1 glacial lance if caly isn't -1). Tera Grass lets Incineroar resist moves attacks such as the former two's STAB attacks as well as Urshifu-R's Surging Strikes Electro Drift from Miraidon, Surging Strikes from Urshifu-R, and Earth Power from Landorus,(comma) which allows Incineroar to remove their items with Knock Off or allow a teammate to switch in through U-turn while also becoming immune to Amoonguss's Spore and Rage Powder.

Incineroar struggles against Pokemon that can threaten it with super effective damage and ignore Intimidate while ignoring Intimidate such as Urshifu-R, Koraidon, Landorus, and Pelipper that can all hit it for super effective damage, with the latter three also still hitting it for super effective damage after it Terastallizes Grass. Partners such as like Miraidon and Lunala can help into against Pokemon that threaten Incineroar such as Urshifu-R, Pelipper,(comma) and Landorus. Incineroar pairs well with Pokemon such as like Miraidon that benefit from being able to pivot and can make sure that Electric Terrain is active. Incineroar also uses Flare Blitz to threatens Grass-types like Rillaboom and Amoonguss that resist Miriadon's STAB Electric-type moves with Flare Blitz.

Incineroar struggles against Pokemon that can threaten it with super effective damage and ignore Intimidate such as Urshifu-R, Koraidon, Landorus, and Pelippe Pelipper, with the latter three still hitting it for super effective damage super effectively after it Terastallizes.
