[SET COMMENTS]
RegenVest Primal Kyogre is an effective specially defensive pivot that is able to blanket check special attackers such as Mega Diancie, Eternatus, and Palkia-O. U-turn is not boosted by STAB but cannot be blocked by Desolate Land. Coming from Primal Kyogre's high Special Attack, Scald does respectable damage against neutral targets and greatly threatens Pokemon like Mega Diancie and Mega Steelix; the threat of burn also deters physical wallbreakers like Mega Mewtwo X from switching in. If Scald burns are undesirable because they conflict with other status conditions, Origin Pulse is a strong alternative. Knock Off removes key items like Covert Cloak, Assault Vest, and Imposter Chansey's Eviolite, allowing Primal Kyogre to status foes and assisting offensive teammates like Lumina Crash users. Mortal Spin is useful to force chip damage on Imposter users and threats like Palkia-O, and it also benefits from most Steel-types fearing Scald, preventing them from spinblocking. Nuzzle is an alternative that is more effective into offensive threats like Magic Guard Mega Mewtwo X and Ho-Oh but is noticeably worse into defensive Pokemon. Stone Axe doesn't conflict with Scald and is easier to Imposter-proof, but it makes Primal Kyogre almost helpless against threats like Palkia-O and Arceus-Fire, meaning reliable checks to these like Ice Scales Arceus-Fairy and Fur Coat Miraidon are needed. Primal Kyogre is threatened by powerful physical wallbreakers like Mewtwo Mega X; thus, physical walls such as Fur Coat Miraidon, Yveltal, and Arceus-Poison are good teammates. Special attackers like Mega Diancie, Mega Gardevoir, and Mega Alakazam appreciate Primal Kyogre removing key items like Assault Vest and Covert Cloak from special walls like Arceus-Fairy and opposing Primal Kyogre, and they can also be Imposter-proofed by Primal Kyogre. Primal Kyogre can be tricky to Imposter-proof; depending on the moveset, some decent options are Ice Scales Dialga-O and Jungle Healing users. Teammates such as Kartana also can offensively Imposter-proof Primal Kyogre by threatening an OHKO on Imposter users.

Coming from Primal Kyogre's high special attack Special Attack, Scald does respectable damage against neutral targets and greatly threatens Pokemon like Mega Diancie and Mega Steelix; the threat of burn also deters physical wallbreakers like Mega Mewtwo X from switching in. If Scald burns are undesirable due to conflicting with other status conditions, Origin Pulse provides a strong alternative. is this being slashed or no? Knock Off removes key items like Covert Cloak, Assault Vest, and Imposter Chansey's Eviolite, allowing Primal Kyogre to status them and assist offensive teammates like Lumina Crash users. Primal Kyogre is a solid user of Mortal Spin since most Steel-types do not like to switch into Knock Off and Scald, and Mortal Spin also is useful against Imposter users and threats like Palkia-O that Primal Kyogre otherwise cannot touch Mortal Spin is useful to force chip on Imposter users and threats like Palkia-O, and it also benefits from most Steel-types fearing Scald. Nuzzle is an alternative that is more effective into offensive threats like Magic Guard Mega Mewtwo X and Ho-Oh but is noticeably worse into defensive Pokemon. Stone Axe is another alternative that offers useful utility with entry hazards and is easier to Imposter-proof, but it does mean Primal Kyogre cannot threaten certain threats like Palkia-O and requires another check like Ice Scales Arceus-Fairy or Life Orb Mega Diancie Stone Axe doesn't conflict with Scald and is easier to Imposter-proof, but it makes Primal Kyogre almost helpless against threats like Palkia-O and Arceus-Fire, meaning reliable checks to these are needed.
