Garchomp is a decent setup sweeper that can use the combination of Loaded Dice and Scale Shot to boost and deal damage at the same time. Fire Fang hits Ferrothorn, Mega Scizor, and Corviknight, OHKOing the first two at +2. Tera Steel grants it the ability to ignore Toxic and set up on passive foes like Alomomola and Galarian Slowking, while Tera Fire gives Fire Fang a STAB boost and allows Garchomp to become immune to burn from foes like Rotom-W and Moltres. Both Tera types flip the match up against Fairy-types like Iron Valiant and Tapu Lele, both of which can heavily threaten hyper offense teams which Loaded Dice Garchomp mostly finds itself on. Teammates like Volcarona, Raging Bolt, and Urshifu-R appreciate Garchomp threatening foes like Dragonite, Clodsire and Toxapex. Garchomp requires support to set up and sweep due to its typing and Defense drops from Scale Shot, so it is very helpful to have dual screens support from Tapu Koko and Grimmsnarl. It also struggles against common threats like Tapu Lele, Iron Valiant, and Weavile, which makes Mega Scizor and Iron Valiant good partners with it. Landorus-T can pivot around Garchomp pretty easily, which makes Mega Scizor a good teammate since it can frequently force Landorus-T in and wear it down. Unaware users like Dondozo can completely shut down Garchomp, so it benefits a lot from immediate breaking power from teammates like Raging Bolt and Tapu Lele, the latter of which can also protect it from priority moves.

Garchomp is a decent setup sweeper that can easily snowball with the help of Loaded Dice and Scale Shot. is chomp "decent" or can it "easily snowball"? one or the other, easily implies that chomp is cracked Swords Dance enables Garchomp to OHKO foes like Toxapex, Tornadus-T, Ogerpon-W, and Gliscor with a roll with what moves? also u technically dont have to even talk about SD but this analysis is already so short lol. Fire Fang hits Ferrothorn, Mega Scizor, and Corviknight, OHKOing the first two at +2, while Iron Head hits Fairy-types like Clefable and Tapu Lele . Tera Fire allows Garchomp immune to burn from foes like Rotom-W and Moltres, while Tera Steel grants it the ability to deny Toxic and set up on passive foes like Alomomola and Galarian Slowking. also the obvious ffang ihead bonus damage, notably tera ihead ohkoes lele etc Both Tera types flip the match up against Fairy-types like Iron Valiant and Tapu Lele. good to have a sentence here on what kind of structure this fits on (hyper offense) Teammates like Volcarona, Raging Bolt, and Urshifu-R appreciate Garchomp threatening foes like Dragonite, Clodsire and Toxapex. Garchomp requires support to set up as it struggles against common threats like Tapu Lele, Iron Valiant, Weavile, and Darkrai, so it is very helpful to have defensive backbones like Ferrothorn and Toxapex to take care of them. i think you more of want offensive partners to nuke those stuff rather than walls to soak up hits, litsed threat examples were fine tho Landorus-T can pivot around Garchomp pretty easily, which makes Urshifu-R a good teammate. clarity! no harm in outright stating that shifu hits it hard Unaware users like Dondozo can completely shut down Garchomp, so it benefits a lot from immediate breaking power like Tapu Lele which can also protect it from priority moves after lowering its Defense due to Scale Shot.

Garchomp requires support to set up and sweep due to its typing and Defensive drops from Scale Shot, so it is very helpful to have dual screens support from Tapu Koko and Grimmsnarl. It also struggles against common threats like Tapu Lele, Iron Valiant, Weavile, and Darkrai, it feels reasonable to say you can just, tera on this and win comfortably. scarf darkrai is also a roll to ko with focus from full anw which makes Mega Scizor and Iron Valiant good partners with it. Landorus-T can pivot around Garchomp pretty easily, which makes Urshifu-R a good teammate capable of dealing great damage to it. i'd feel more comfortable mentioning something that can pressure it into coming in and wearing it down heavily instead Unaware users like Dondozo can completely shut down Garchomp, so it benefits a lot from immediate breaking power like Raging Bolt and Tapu Lele which can also protect it from priority moves after lowering its Defense due to Scale Shot.
