  • Will-O-Wisp cripples common Skeledirge switch-ins such as Toxapex and Ting-Lu, and it also forces out Koraidon.
  • Hex, in conjuction with Will-O-Wisp, helps Skeledirge beat foes that otherwise wouldn't take much damage from its attacks, such as Toxapex and Alomomola.
  • Earth Power hits Pokemon that would wall Skeledirge completely, such as Garganacl, while still hitting Toxapex hard. Earth Power also hits Tera Fire Koraidon, which can potentially beat Skeledirge one-on-one if Torch Song is its only attacking move, as Hex without a status condition does not always break Koraidon's Substitute with a Torch Song boost.
  • Skeledirge is best suited for bulky offense and stall teams alike, as those styles of teams specifically appreciate its walling capabilities. For example, it can wall non-Stomping Tantrum Koraidon, Choice Specs Iron Valiant, and non-Earthquake Slither Wing.
  • Tera Fairy helps Skeledirge check Pokemon that would otherwise overwhelm it, such as Koraidon locked into Outrage and Chien-Pao locked into Crunch. Tera Water is also an option to check Palafin and rain teams, and it retains Skeledirge's Fire resistance.
  • Pokemon that appreciate walls like Ting-Lu and Toxapex being burned make for great partners, like Miraidon and Kingambit. Other Koraidon and Chien-Pao checks such as Toxapex and Great Tusk make for great partners too, as Skeledirge appreciates not being the only check to them. Lastly, Blissey walls Iron Bundle and Miraidon for Skeledirge, and in return Skeledirge checks Koraidon.

  • Will-O-Wisp cripples common Skeledirge switch-ins such as Toxapex and Ting-Lu and forces out Koraidon.
  • Hex in conjuction with Will-O-Wisp help Skeledirge break Pokemon beat foes that don't mind its attacks too much, such as Toxapex and Alomomola.
  • Earth Power...
  • Skeledirge is a offensive unaware wall that is best suited for bulky offense and stall teams alike, as those style of teams specifically appreciate the walling capabilities that Skeledirge offers.
  • Tera Fairy helps Skeledirge to check Pokemon that would otherwise overwhelm it, such as Koraidon locked into Outrage and Chien-Pao locked into Crunch. maybe say that tera water is decent to let it check rain teams/palafin while retaining a resistance to Fire-type attacks.
  • Pokemon that appreciate walls like Ting-Lu and Toxapex being burned make for great partners. As such, Miraidon and Kingambit are excellent partners for Skeledirge. Other Koraidon and Chien-Pao checks such as Toxapex and Great Tusk make for great partners too, as Skeledirge appreciates not being the only check to those. Add Blissey, checks Miraidon/Bundle and appreciates Skeledirge taking on Koraidon for it.

Fix spelling of Wisp in the moves list and "also" in the 5th bullet. Mention that Earth Power hits tera fire koraidon too which can be a pain, leftovers sets can run it out of pp long term if all it can do is Torch Song

Hex in conjuction with Will-O-Wisp help Skeledirge beat foes that don't mind its attacks too much, such as Toxapex and Alomomola.
Not really sure what this is trying to say, is this saying that dirge doesn't mind their attacks or that these pokemon don't mind its attacks unless said attack is a Hex after status? Clean it up a bit to clarify, and if it's the latter which I assume it is I'd just say smth like "foes which otherwise wouldn't take much damage from its attacks" or anything similar that just makes it clear.
