VGC Bloodmoon Ursa [QC 2/2] [GP 1/1]

Trick Room Sweeper (Ursaluna-Bloodmoon) @ Life Orb
Ability: Mind's Eye
Level: 50

Quiet Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 0 Spe

Ursaluna-B is a special attacking Trick Room sweeper with strong natural bulk and a STAB combination that can hit most Pokemon for neutral damage. With its part-Normal typing and Mind's Eye ability, it has a good matchup into Calyrex-S. It also does well against any Pokemon that cannot handle its STAB combination such as Urshifu-R, which has a high chance of being OHKOed by a Tera Normal Hyper Voice; Gholdengo, which is KOed by Earth Power; and Pokemon such as Ogerpon-H that are OHKOed by Blood Moon. Life Orb gives Ursaluna-B a consistent boost in damage output. Hyper Voice threatens both Pokemon on the opponent's field and helps steamroll games quickly if Ursaluna-B is not handled with. Blood Moon is also an option to hit a single foe for heavy damage. The HP EVs are optimized for Ursaluna-B to minimize Life Orb recoil. Tera Normal increases Ursaluna-B's offensive pressure greatly, allowing for guaranteed OHKOs on Flutter Mane, Amoonguss, and Incineroar with Blood Moon as well as shedding many of its weaknesses.

Amoonguss counters Ursaluna-B, as it can outspeed Ursaluna-B and hit it with Spore in Trick Room. Ting-Lu can outspeed Ursaluna-B and slow its pace greatly thanks to Vessel of Ruin and Snarl. Farigiraf can prevent opposing Fake Out from stalling out Ursaluna-B, enable Ursaluna-B by setting Trick Room, and further boost Ursaluna-B's damage with Helping Hand. Miraidon prevents opposing Spore from affecting Ursaluna-B with Electric Terrain, and Ursaluna-B synergizes well with it due to its immunity to Discharge.

Hihi, dumped a lot on you so would like to have a recheck before I can mark this as QC 1/2.

Ursaluna-Bs main role on a team is a special attacking Trick Room (TR) sweeper. With its part Normal typing and Mind's Eye ability it has a good matchup into Calyrex-S, and anything that cannot handle its STAB spam like Hyper Voice under trick room (Examples ideally. Bring up faster stuff it can OHKO or take no damage from here.). Life Orb allows for Ursaluna-B to have a boost in damage output, and it doesn't mind the recoil due to its bulk and ability to consistently move first in TR Trick Room. (Why does Ursaluna-B run Hyper Voice? Expand on that here.) Life Orb recoil damage is optimized with its 244 HP EVs because it results in a HP stat of 219 which will round down to 21 recoil damage from Life Orb, and max special attack to take advantage of the TR turns where it is able to move first The HP EVs are optimised for Life Orb recoil (Unnecessarily long, readers are expected to know rounding and max doesn't need explaining.). Tera normal allows Ursaluna-B to have even more damage output in its TR turns where it can spam Tera boosted STAB Hyper Voices with little worry of fighting attacks due to its natural physical bulk.

Amoonguss is a good answer into Ursaluna-B since it can underspeed in TR Trick Room and put Ursaluna-B to sleep before it has a chance to attack and then stall out TR turns. Ting-Lu is another answer to Ursaluna-B because of its access to snarl spam being able to cut the damage output Ursaluna-B on top of Ting-Lu's Vessel of Ruin ability which cuts Ursaluna-B's special attack stat even more (Can easily shorten this as they're both forms of damage reduction, highlight that Ting-Lu is slower.). A good partner for Ursaluna-B is Farigiraf because it prevents priority moves being able to hit Ursaluna-B (Why is this good for Ursaluna-B? Think Rillaboom and Fake Out stall. Bring up how Farigiraf can set up Trick Room and threaten Amoonguss with Psychic.), Farigiraf able to boost damage output even more by its access to Helping Hand, and most importantly being able to set up TR for Ursaluna-B. Restricted Pokemon that are good with Ursaluna-B are Caly-I because it can set TR while also being a TR sweeper alongside Ursaluna-B, and Miraidon since both can spam powerful spread moves like Hyper Voice on Ursaluna-B and Discharge next to Ursaluna-B (Bring up Electric Terrain's Spore immunity).

Ursaluna-Bs B's main role on a team is a special attacking trick room (TR) Special Attacking Trick Room sweeper. With its part normal Normal typing and Mind's Eye ability, (AC) it has a good matchup into Caly-S Calyrex-S, and anything that cannot handle its STAB spam like Hyper Voice under trick room Trick Room. (Bring in examples here, OHKOs would be better) Life Orb allows for Ursaluna-B to have a boost in damage output, and it doesn't mind the recoil due to its bulk and ability to consistently move first in TR Trick Room. (You can mention the synergy between Bloodmoon and Hyper Voice, how it can use them on alternate turns, making it really strong in Trick Room). Life Orb recoil damage is optimized with its 244 HP EVs because it results in a HP stat of 219 which will round down to 21 recoil damage from Life Orb, and max special attack to take advantage of the TR turns where it is able to move first.. The EV spread is optimized for Life Orb recoil. Tera normal Normal allows Ursaluna-B to have even more damage output in its TR Trick Room turns where it can spam Tera Normal-boosted STAB Hyper Voices with little worry of fighting attacks due to its natural physical bulk. (I think the sentence can be reworded to be a little bit more professional, try to conserve the meaning though.)

Amoonguss is a good answer into Ursaluna-B since it can underspeed in TR Trick Room and put Ursaluna-B to sleep with Spore (just for specificity) before it has a chance to attack and then stall out TR Trick Room turns. Ting-Lu is another answer to Ursaluna-B because of its access to snarl spam being able to cut the damage output Ursaluna-B on top of Ting-Lu's Vessel of Ruin ability which cuts Ursaluna-B's special attack stat even more. (Just mention it is slower and can snarl it down.) A good partner for Ursaluna-B is Farigiraf because it prevents priority moves being able to hit Ursaluna-B, Farigiraf able to boost damage output even more by its access to Helping Hand, and most importantly being able to set up TR for Ursaluna-B. A good partner for Ursaluna-B is Farigiraf, as it prevents priority moves, thanks to its ability Armor Tail. This prevents Fake Out from Pokemon like Rillaboom. Trick Room and Helping Hand enables Ursaluna-B, while Psychic from Farigiraf threatens Amoonguss. (Reworded this section, you can keep it to be original but covers a lot of points Luna highlighted as well keeps the writing style in mind, still just a suggestion.) Restricted Pokemon that are good with Ursaluna-B are Caly-I Calyrex-I, (AC) because it can set TR Trick Room while also being a TR Trick Room sweeper alongside Ursaluna-B, and Miraidon since both can spam powerful spread moves like Hyper Voice on Ursaluna-B and Discharge next to Ursaluna-B.

Ursaluna-Bs main role on a team is a special attacking Trick Room sweeper. With its part Normal typing and Mind's Eye ability it has a good matchup into Calyrex-S, and anything that cannot handle its STAB Earth Powers, Blood Moons, and Hyper Voices under trick room like how Ursaluna-B can tank a Moonblast from Flutter Mane and OHKO it in return with Blood Moon moves such as Urshifu-R, Gholdengo. and Ogerpon-H. (Flutter Mane runs HP EVs so this isn't true without Tera, don't need to bring up taking the hit when you're under Trick Room.) Life Orb allows for Ursaluna-B to have a boost in damage output, and it doesn't mind the recoil due to its bulk and ability to consistently move first in Trick Room. Ursaluna runs Hyper Voice because it is a STAB move which helps Ursaluna-B take advantage of its Trick Room turns since it is spread and can chunk the opponents side with its damage move. The HP EVs are optimized for Life Orb recoil. Tera Normal allows Ursaluna-B to have even more damage output in its TR Trick Room turns where it can spam Tera boosted STAB Hyper Voices with little worry of fighting attacks due to its natural physical bulk (Probably bring up lost weaknesses. Ursaluna actually dies to Urshifu CC after Life Orb recoil so suggest it OHKOs it first instead.).

Amoonguss is a good answer to Ursaluna-B since it can underspeed in Trick Room and put Ursaluna-B to sleep before it has a chance to attack and then stall out TR turns. Ting-Lu is another answer to Ursaluna-B because of its access to both Snarl and Vessel of Ruin which are both tools to lower Ursaluna-B's damage output, in addition to Ting-Lu being able to underspeed Ursaluna-B in TR. A good partner for Ursaluna-B is Farigiraf because it prevents priority moves being able to hit Ursaluna-B like Fake Out to stall Trick Room or Rillaboom Grassy Glide to deal great damage (If this was the case stuff like Aqua Jet or Sucker Punch would be an issue.) to Ursaluna-B before it can attack, Farigiraf is able to boost damage output even more by its access to Helping Hand, Farigiraf with STAB Psychics to threaten Amoonguss, and most importantly being able to set up TR for Ursaluna-B. A Restricted Pokemon that is good with Ursaluna-B are Calyrex-I because it can set TR while also being a TR sweeper alongside Ursaluna-B. Another Restricted Pokemon that is good with Ursaluna-B is Miraidon since both can spam powerful spread moves like Hyper Voice on Ursaluna-B and Discharge next to Ursaluna-B, and with Miraidon being able to set up Electric Terrain to stop incoming Spores going into Ursaluna-B. (Bit messy but gets the point across, GP should handle it better.)

Hey, I'd like to re-check this, ping me on disc for questions. Also, you speak very casual for a lot of this which isen't ideal, maybe bump up the formality (Like, Idk if theres any convention on this but im not sure you should be using words like "Spam")

Ursaluna-B's main role on a team is a special attacking Trick Room sweeper Okay this is gonna be completely nitpicky but like, yeah no duh. Anyway you can spice up the sentence or smh or pack more info here, its up to you but yeah. With its part normal typing and Mind's Eye ability it has a good matchup into Calyrex-S This sentence and the rest of it are kinda weird, they dont explain why Ursaluna BM is so strong in Trick Room and why it's strong in general, which is a stab combo which can hit pre much everything for neutral and a strong spread move, which lends to opps not being able to handle it. Can you re-word this sentence to mention that stuff, also ftr its "Normal-type", and anything that cannot handle its STABs such as Urshifu-R, Gholdengo, and Ogerpon-H Why can't they handle its STABs? Explain. Life Orb allows for gives Ursaluna-B to have a boost in damage output Okay sure, but why does it need this? Can you explain why the damage boost is valuable to Ursaluna, does it not ohko mons or be less effective as a sweeper without it?, and it doesn't mind the recoil due to its bulk and ability to consistently move first in Trick Room You can argue this, I personally woulden't include this as its kinda unnecessary the recoil isen't that impactful for many mons anyways. Ursaluna runs Hyper Voice because it is a STAB spread move Yes okay but why does it need to run a strong STAB spread move. Under Trick Room, Ursaluna-B can alternate between both Hyper Voice and Blood Moon because if Blood Moon doesn't already kill one of the Pokemon then Hyper Voice will probably pick up the KO on the next turn while hitting the opponent's other Pokemon Way too long, and like why does this need to be explained? Can't you just say for Blood Moon that it's a strong nuke option or something. The HP EVs are optimized for Life Orb recoil. Tera Normal allows Ursaluna-B to have even more damage output in its Trick Room turns where it can spam Tera boosted STAB Hyper Voices with little worry as it can OHKO weaknesses like Urshifu before it has a chance to attack, and Tera Normal also allows it to shed its weaknesses from Water, Grass, and Ice. A few mentions here, 1 this is crazy long I feel like you can shorten this to like "Tera Normal increases Ursaluna-B's pressure greatly, allowing for OHKOes on ___ with ___, as well as shedding most of its weaknesses.", second like I think you should mention the T-Normal pressure in the intro cuz thats a big part of its validity. Also, change Urshifu please, 252+ SpA Life Orb Tera-Normal Ursaluna-Bloodmoon Hyper Voice vs. 44 HP / 4 SpD Urshifu-Rapid Strike: 166-198 (91.7 - 109.3%) -- 50% chance to OHKO I really dont like these odds, even against 0/0 Urshifu its only 75% to ohko.

Amoonguss is a good answer to Ursaluna-B since it can underspeed in Trick Room and put Ursaluna-B to sleep with Spore before it has a chance to attack and then stall out Trick Room turns Amoonguss is a great counter to Ursaluna-B as it can underspeed and Spore it in Trick Room Shortening. Ting-Lu is another answer to Ursaluna-B because of its access to both Snarl and Vessel of Ruin which lower Ursaluna-B's damage output in addition to Ting-Lu being able to underspeed Ursaluna-B in Trick Room and therefore spam Snarls before Ursaluna-B can attack Ting-Lu is also strong into Ursaluna-B as it can slowdown its pace greatly thanks to Vessel of Ruin and Snarl Cutting, also FTR idk how common Ting Lu is, its pre danm uncommon in most tourneys I've seen. Anything else you have?. A good partner for Ursaluna-B is Farigiraf because it prevents priority moves being able to hit Ursaluna-B like Fake Out to stall Trick Room or Rillaboom Grassy Glide to deal great damage to Ursaluna-B before it can attack, Psychic to threaten Amoonguss, and most importantly its access to both Trick Room and Helping Hand to help enable Ursaluna-B Farigiraf is a strong partner for Ursaluna-B as it can prevent opposing Fake Out's from stalling out Ursaluna-B as well as set Trick Room for it, as well as further boost its damage with Helping Hand Cutting Again, also I cut Amoonguss as Fig also struggles against it and cant OHKO with Psychic. Restricted Pokemon that is good with Ursaluna-B are Calyrex-I, (AC) because it can set Trick Room while also being a Trick Room sweeper alongside Ursaluna-B. I think there was one guy who went 5-4 in Stockholm who used Caly-I and Ursaluna-B, and I never see it on ladder either. Another Restricted Pokemon that is good with Ursaluna-B is Miraidon since both can spam powerful spread moves like Hyper Voice on Ursaluna-B and Discharge next to Ursaluna-B, and with Miraidon being able to set up Electric Terrain to stop incoming Spores going into Ursaluna-B Miraidon is an excellent partner for Ursaluna-B as it prevents opposing Spores with Electric Terrain, as well as Ursaluna-B being immune to its Discharges. Trimming again, you can probably rephrase this one with "However, Miraidon ___" at the end of the Amoonguss thing

Ursaluna-B's main role on a team is a special attacking Trick Room sweeper with strong natural bulk and a STAB combination that hits with its low base speed and natural bulk it can stay on the field for a long time, and it can hit pretty much anything for neutral with its STABs. If its a tr mon its already kinda assumed its low speed, also I personally chose to get rid of the stay on the field for a long time part as you say its bulky thats also kinda assumed. Cutting otherwise It also has a lot of pressure when it hits the field because most of the time it can threaten most Pokemon with It threatens most Pokemon with Tera Boosted Hyper Voices or Blood Moons. With it being a Normal-Type and Mind's Eye ability it has a good matchup into Calyrex-S, and anything that cannot handle its STABs such as Urshifu-R, (AC) which can faint due to a has a high chance of fainting to a Tera Normal Hyper Voice or neutral Blood Moon if it doesn't have any investment in bulk, Gholdengo to since Ursaluna-B has STAB Earth Power to force it to tera or make it faint, and the many Pokemon such as Ogerpon-H which faint to Blood Moon has no way of dealing with getting hit with a Blood Moon You can keep the Gholdengo part, I don't think its needed but your pick. I removed the no way of dealing with bm for just fainting, I think thats more clear. Life Orb gives Ursaluna-B a consistent boost in damage output. Ursaluna runs Hyper Voice because it is a STAB spread move that most things will get dealt great damage by Hyper Voice threatens both Pokemon on the opponents field and helps steamroll games quickly if not handled If the goal is to deal great damage I feel like you woulden't run a spread move that gets a 25% single target damage reduction, I think its moreso to get momentum fast. Blood Moon is also an option to nuke opponents if they are really threatening to your side. The HP EVs are optimized for Life Orb recoil. Tera Normal increases Ursaluna-B's pressure greatly, allowing for guaranteed OHKOs on non-bulky Flutter Manes, Amoonguss, and Incineroars with Tera Normal Blood Moon, as well as shedding many of its weaknesses. This is good

Amoonguss is a great counter to Ursaluna-B as it can underspeed and Spore it in Trick Room. Ting-Lu is also strong into Ursaluna-B as it can slowdown its pace greatly thanks to Vessel of Ruin and Snarl as it can also underspeed Ursaluna-B. Farigiraf is a strong partner for Ursaluna-B as it can prevent opposing Fake Out's from stalling out Ursaluna-B as well as enabling Ursaluna-B by setting Trick Room and further boost its damage with Helping Hand. Miraidon is an excellent partner for Ursaluna-B as it prevents opposing Spores with Electric Terrain, as well as Ursaluna-B being immune to its Discharges. One more thing, maybe mention Pelipper here as it has wide guard to block hyper voice and hits for SE

Ursaluna-B's Ursaluna-B is a special attacking Trick Room sweeper with strong natural bulk and a STAB combination that can hit pretty much anything for neutral. It most Pokemon for neutral damage. With its part-Normal typing with Tera Boosted Hyper Voices or Blood Moons With it being a Normal-Type and Mind's Eye ability it has a good matchup into Calyrex-S(RC) and anything that cannot handle its STABs STAB combination such as Urshifu-R, which has a high chance of fainting due to a Tera Normal Hyper Voice; (Semicolon) Gholdengo, (AC) which is KOed by to Earth Power; (semicolon) and many Pokemon such as Ogerpon-H which that faint to Blood Moon. Life Orb gives Ursaluna-B a consistent boost in damage output. Hyper Voice threatens both Pokemon on the opponents opponent's field and helps steamroll games quickly if not handled. (If what is not handled? Ursaluna-B? Hyper Voice?) Blood Moon is also an option to nuke opponents hit a single foe for heavy damage. (Defer to QC here but I think neither the sentence about Life Orb nor the prior sentence add any substance. "nuke" is also too casual imo) The HP EVs are optimized for Life Orb recoil. Tera Normal increases Ursaluna-B's offensive pressure greatly, allowing for guaranteed OHKOs on Flutter Mane, Amoonguss, and Incineroar with Blood Moon(RC) as well as shedding many of its weaknesses.

Amoonguss is a great counter to counters Ursaluna-B, (AC) as it can underspeed outspeed Ursaluna-B (under/outspeed refer to the turn order, and not the actual Speed stat. Since Amoonguss goes first under TR it should be outspeed) and Spore it hit it with Spore in Trick Room. (try to avoid using move names as verbs) Ting-Lu is also strong into Ursaluna-B as it can slowdown can outspeed Ursaluna-B and slow its pace greatly thanks to Vessel of Ruin and Snarl. (period) as it can also underspeed Ursaluna-B. Farigiraf is a strong partner for Ursaluna-B as it Farigiraf can prevent opposing Fake Out's Out from stalling out Ursaluna-B, (AC) enable as well as enabling Ursaluna-B by setting Trick Room, (AC) and further boost its Ursaluna-B's damage with Helping Hand. Miraidon is an excellent partner for Ursaluna-B as it prevents opposing Spores Spore from affecting Ursaluna-B with Electric Terrain(RC) as well as Ursaluna-B being immune to its Discharges Discharge.

Ursaluna-B is a special attacking Trick Room sweeper with strong natural bulk and a STAB combination that can hit most Pokemon for neutral damage. With its part-Normal typing and Mind's Eye ability, (AC) it has a good matchup into Calyrex-S and anything Calyrex-S. It also does well against any Pokemon that cannot handle its STAB combination such as Urshifu-R, which has a high chance of fainting to being KOed by (if it's OHKOed, say that instead) a Tera Normal Hyper Voice; Gholdengo, which is KOed by Earth Power; and Pokemon such as Ogerpon-H that faint to are KOed by (same here, say OHKOed if that's the case) Blood Moon. Life Orb gives Ursaluna-B a consistent boost in damage output. Hyper Voice threatens both Pokemon on the opponent's field and helps steamroll games quickly if Ursaluna-B is not handled with. Blood Moon is also an option to hit a single foe for heavy damage. The HP EVs are optimized for Ursaluna-B to minimize Life Orb recoil. Tera Normal increases Ursaluna-B's offensive pressure greatly, allowing for guaranteed OHKOs on Flutter Mane, Amoonguss, and Incineroar with Blood Moon as well as shedding many of its weaknesses.

Amoonguss counters Ursaluna-B, as it can outspeed Ursaluna-B and hit it with Spore in Trick Room. Ting-Lu can outspeed Ursaluna-B and slow its pace greatly thanks to Vessel of Ruin and Snarl. Farigiraf can prevent opposing Fake Out from stalling out Ursaluna-B, enable Ursaluna-B by setting Trick Room, and further boost Ursaluna-B's damage with Helping Hand. Miraidon prevents opposing Spore from affecting Ursaluna-B with Electric Terrain, (AC) and Ursaluna-B synergizes well with it due to its immunity to Discharge as well as Ursaluna-B being immune to its Discharge. (made it clearer why the discharge immunity is relevant)
