Kyurem @ Choice Specs
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Freeze-Dry
- Blizzard
- Draco Meteor
- Earth Power

With the rise of SubRoost Kyurem, Choice Specs lets Kyurem freeze its usual defensive counterplay in Monotype! When boosted by Choice Specs, Freeze-Dry obliterates Slowking, which can normally take on SubRoost Kyurem. Blizzard 2HKOs defensive checks such as Celesteela, Corviknight, and Ferrothorn in Flying and Steel teams. Earth Power threatens Steel-types like Aegislash and Heatran, which shrug off its STAB moves. Alolan Ninetales provides Hail to ensure perfectly accurate Blizzards, sets Aurora Veil to ease Kyurem's switch-in opportunities, and threatens faster Fighting- and Dragon-types such as Urshifu-R and Garchomp. Arctozolt loves Kyurem wearing down the opposing team's walls, allowing it to clean types like Poison, Steel, and Dark late-game. Cloyster and Avalugg remove entry hazards for Kyurem and deal with Steel-types like Bisharp and Excadrill, with Cloyster further providing Spikes and Toxic Spikes support.

With the rise of SubRoost Kyurem, Choice Specs Kyurem freezes the newly-discovered (?) usual defensive counterplay to it in Monotype! When boosted by Choice Specs, Freeze-Dry obliterates Slowking, which can normally take on SubRoost Kyurem. Blizzard 2HKOs defensive checks such as Celesteela, Mamoswine, Corviknight and Ferrothorn in Flying, Ground, and Grass and Steel teams. Earth Power obliterates threatens Steel-types like Aegislash and Jirachi Heatran that shrugs off its STABs. Alolan Ninetales provides Hail to ensure perfectly accurate Blizzards, sets Aurora Veil to ease Kyurem's switch-in opportunities, and threatens faster Fighting- and Dragon-types such as Urshifu-R and Garchomp. Arctozolt loves Kyurem's ability to wear down the opposing team's walls, allowing it to clean teams such as Poison, Steel, and Dark late game. Choice Scarf Weavile is a fast Pokemon that threatens Galarian Zapdos, Latios, and Zarude for Kyurem. (don't think this is necessary, scarf weavile is obviously good on ice but its connection to kyurem is pretty removed, as you can't force kills against any of these pokemon until late game) Cloyster and Avalugg provides support by removing entry hazards for Kyurem and setting more entry hazards or dealing with Steel-types which makes it more threatening. dealing with Steel-types like Bisharp and Excadrill, with Cloyster in particular providing Spikes and Toxic Spikes support.

Hewwo, checks implemented
clean teams such as Poison, Steel, and Dark late game. teams late-game.
Um, quick question, teams were already mentioned a bit earlier, that means "clean teams such as Poison, Steel, and Dark teams late-game"?

Thank you :blobnom:

Thank you :blobnom:
as written, yes, “teams” should be there twice. assuming i remember right, the monotype grammar standard is that just saying the type name (“Poison”) doesn’t count as a group of teams, it only counts as a type. you could also write “clean types like Poison, Steel, and Dark late-game”
