Tapu Koko's high Speed and ability make it the premier dual screen setter on hyper offense teams. Taunt denies Defog from foes such as Tornadus-T and Rotom-W while also denying entry hazards from foes such as Ferrothorn. It also prevents foes such as Annihilape, Volcarona, and Espathra from using Tapu Koko as setup fodder. U-turn allows Tapu Koko to generate momentum and pivot into teammates such as Cyclizar, Espartha, and Dragapult after setting screens. Tapu Koko will very rarely use Tera since teammates such as Espartha or Annihilape rely on it to be effective. In a pinch, however, Tera Flying offers a Ground immunity for foes such as Clodsire. Pokemon that take advantage of dual screens, such as Volcarona, Dragonite, and Espathra, are good partners, as they allow them to set up safely and survive potential revenge killers such as Mega Lopunny, Kingambit, and Mega Scizor. Electric Seed Espathra and Iron Valiant also benefit greatly from Tapu Koko setting Electric Terrain in addition to dual screens. Cyclizar also appreciates dual screen support from Tapu Koko to make it harder for foes to break the Substitute it passes to teammates. Tapu Koko is also weak to Stealth Rock setters such as Great Tusk, Landorus-T, and Garchomp, and it can have difficulty denying entry hazards from them, so it appreciates Rapid Spin from Cyclizar clearing hazards from the field and teammates such as Dragonite and Gyarados pivoting in to Ground-type attacks from them.

Tapu Koko's high Speed speed and ability make it the premier screen setter on hyper offense teams. It's ability to summon Electric Terrain lets it form an extremely potent core with Electric Seed Espartha. Taunt denies Defog from foes such as Tornadus-T and Rotom-W while also denying hazards from foes such as Ferrothorn. It also prevents opponents such as Annihilape from using Tapu Koko as setup fodder. U-turn allows Tapu Koko to generate momentum and pivot into teammates such as Cyclizar, Espartha and Dragapult after setting screens. Tapu Koko will very rarely use Tera since teammates such as Espartha or Annihilape rely on it to be effective. If it needs to, however, Tera Flying provides Tapu Koko with a Ground immunity in a pinch against opponents such as Clodsire. meh idt its worth mentioning at all, u do nothing to it anyways + flying should be obvious imo, just say it never teras really Pokemon that use dual screens to set up in front of foes take advantage of screens to improve their longevity such as Volcarona, Dragonite, Iron Valiant and Espartha benefit from Tapu Koko's support, as it allows allowing them to set up safely and survive potential revenge killers such as Extreme Speed Dragonite. Cyclizar also appreciates screen support from Tapu Koko to ensure that defensive foes such as Toxapex use more general foes that threaten common ho mons cannot immediately break the Substitute it passes to offensive teammates. Iron Valiant and Volcarona. Foes that can take advantage of Electric Terrain such as Iron Valiant are troublesome for Tapu Koko to deal with, so it appreciates teammates such as Volcarona checking them. Tapu Koko is also weak to Stealth Rock setters such as Great Tusk, Landorus-T and Garchomp and can have difficulty denying hazards from them, so it appreciates Rapid Spin from Cyclizar clearing hazards from the field. mention pokemon that appreciate being given pivot support against koko switchins

Tapu Koko will very rarely use Tera since teammates such as Espartha or Annihilape rely on it to be effective. Should probably explain why tera flying is used in any case, even if no one is ever gonna click it we still have it as an option for the nichest of scenarios + might not be obvious to the newer player. Pokemon that use dual screens to set up in front of foes, such as Volcarona, Dragonite and Espartha, benefit from Tapu Koko's support, as it allows them to set up safely and survive potential revenge killers such as Mega Lopunny, Kingambit, and Mega Scizor Extreme Speed Dragonite.

Foes that can take advantage of Electric Terrain such as Iron Valiant are troublesome for Tapu Koko to deal with, so it appreciates teammates such as Volcarona checking them. Honestly its an HO mon so you wont really find checks per say, if you wanna mention that you need to be careful in playing around Iron Valiant, Iron Hands, and Mega Medicham in terrain then thats fine but you wont really have checks for them necessarily, just to keep the offensive pressure up against them. Tapu Koko is also weak to Stealth Rock setters such as Great Tusk, Landorus-T and Garchomp and can have difficulty denying hazards from them, so it appreciates Rapid Spin from Cyclizar clearing hazards from the field. list teammates that can come in to cover the Ground attacks. Dragonite and Gyarados come to mind. Also implement sulo's last comment on mons that benefit from koko's pivoting support.
