Weavile @ Choice Band
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Icicle Crash
- Throat Chop
- Ice Shard
- Assurance / Poison Jab

Weavile crashes headfirst into the BDSP metagame, throwing out potent Choice Band-boosted Icicle Crashes and Throat Chops. Weavile's amazing offensive Ice / Dark typing, alongside a high base Speed and Attack, makes it a terrifying wallbreaker if brought in safely. Ice Shard is a powerful priority move that revenge kills Breloom and faster threats such as+1 Dragonite after Multiscale is broken and Choice Scarf Garchomp. Assurance is an amazing option as a final move, as it provides Weavile with a nuke capable of feats such as OHKOing Scizor and Heatran after Stealth Rock. Poison Jab is a solid, alternative option to nail Azumarill. Due to Weavile's glaring Stealth Rock weakness, it can only function well on teams with adequate entry hazard removal to support it, thus making Pokemon such as Starmie and Gliscor great partners, with the latter also being able to bring it in safely with U-turn. Magnezone and Heatran are also good teammates, as they can easily trap or take advantage of Pokemon such as Scizor and Skarmory which are lured in by Weavile.

Ice Shard allows Weavile to revenge kill faster threats or Pokemon with priority such as boosted Dragonite, Choice Scarf Garchomp, and Breloom.
you don't KO loom or dnite if multiscale is active and dnite has a better priority than you if its boosted so id reword in "Ice Shard is a powerful priority that deals with or revengekills faster threats such as Breloom and a boosted Dragonite after minor chip / Stealth Rock damage and easily KOs Choice Scarf Garchomp" (id also omit the "pokemon with priority part" since the only one you win the prio game with is literally Breloom, and that can even be scarf so at this point its just redundant)

also id mention somewhere that Weavile loves being brought on the field safely with pivot so id add a mention of this when you mention Gliscor, since he can both get rid of rocks and pivot out

(also id never hit heatran with this since Flame Body unless absolutely necessary but w/e)

ping when implement or dm on cord :murkrow:

Weavile crashes headfirst (remove hyphen) into the BDSP metagame, throwing out potent Choice Band-boosted Icicle Crashes and Throat Chops. Weavile's access to an amazing offensive Ice / Dark offensive typing, alongside a high base Speed and Attack, (add comma) makes it a terrifying wallbreaker if brought in safely. Ice Shard is a powerful priority move that revenge kills Breloom and faster threats such as a boosted +1 Dragonite after Multiscale is broken and Choice Scarf Garchomp. Assurance is an amazing option as a final move, (add comma) as it provides Weavile with a nuke capable of feats such as OHKOing Scizor and Heatran after Stealth Rock Damage. Poison Jab is also a solid, (add comma) alternative option to nail Azumarill. Due to Weavile's glaring Stealth Rock weakness, it can only function well on teams with adequate hazard control entry hazard removal to support it, thus making Pokemon such as Starmie and Gliscor great partners, with the latter also being able to bring it in safely with U-turn. Magnezone and Heatran are also good teammates, as they can easily trap and or (Heatran doesn't trap them, it traps whatever gets sent out into it after Heatran is in, which is usually a Ground- or Water-type that Weavile would not want to come in on anyways. LMK if this messes with your intended meaning of the sentence, and we can workshop an alternative way of saying what you want.) take advantage of Pokemon such as Scizor and Skarmory which are lured in by Weavile.
