[SET COMMENTS]
Set Description
========

Froslass's high speed makes it a particularly effective user of Spikes, always getting at least one layer up when teams lack a faster Pokémon. Spikes allows Froslass to pressure opposing teams by punishing switching, and wearing down opposing Pokemon. Taunt ensures that Defog users like Rotom-H, Volcanion and Corviknight, will not be able remove the Spikes, as well as blocking entry hazards and status from the likes of Ferrothorn and Toxapex. Icy Wind offers Froslass valuable speed control, ensuring that setup sweepers like Volcarona can't use it as setup fodder, and also allows Froslass to bring down faster targets with Destiny Bond the following turn. Destiny Bond also pairs well with Taunt, since Taunt forces foes to attack Froslass directly. Will-O-Wisp is also an option as it cripples Pokemon like Bisharp and Tyranitar that could play around Destiny Bond. Cursed Body can potentially cripple Choice-Locked Pokemon like Weavile and Zarude, giving its teammates the opportunity to set up.

Team Options
========

Offensive Pokemon like Gengar, Dragapult, Spectrier, Mimikyu, and Blacephalon appreciate the Froslass’s Spikes support, which allows them to KO foes more easily. For example, Gengar can benefit from Spikes wearing away at Specially Defensive Tyranitar to the point that Focus Blast can KO it. Blacephalon and Spectrier benefit from Spikes wearing their checks like Drapion and Heatran allowing them to sweep Poison and Steel teams late-game. Spectrier also appreciates Will-O-Wisp Froslass spreading burns in the opposing teams if running Hex. Dragapult, Mimikyu, and Aegislash appreciate Spikes support to overwhelm physically defensive Pokémon such as Toxapex, Ferrothorn, and Hippowdon. Aegislash deals with Clefable and Hatterene which are unaffected by Spikes. Runerigus forms an entry hazard-stacking core with Froslass, with the former providing Stealth Rock and Toxic Spikes.

[STRATEGY COMMENTS]
Other Options
=============

Froslass can run dual screens with Light Clay to make setup easier for teammates, but the Spikes support is useful in more instances. Ice Beam and Triple Axel can be considered over Icy Wind for the Flying matchup since Spikes is useless there. Ice Beam OHKOes Landorus-T, while Triple Axel does huge damage to Galarian Moltres.

Hello DreamPrince , the new monotype analysis format cuts the [OVERVIEW] and Checks and Counters part. Because of that, the first sentence of the set kinda summarizes the overview part. Thank you so much :blobnom:

*Also usage tips are cut btw

Set Description
========

Spikes allows Froslass to pressure opposing teams by punishing switching, (RC) and wearing down opposing Pokemon with hazard damage. Taunt ensures that Defog users like Zapdos, Rotom, Mantine, Mandibuzz, Tapu Fini and Corviknight (Just list 2-3 examples, not 6) will not be able remove the hazards, while also blocking hazards and status from the likes of Ferrothorn and Toxapex. Icy Wind offers Froslass valuable speed control, ensuring that setup sweepers (like?) can't use is it has fodder. Ice Beam can used for a more powerful STAB, but its quite weak because of Froslass's low Special Attack, and the Speed drops are more useful for Speed Control. (Froslass' job isn't to do damage, its to setup as many Spikes as it can then die) Destiny Bond potentially allows Froslass to potentially bring an opponent down with it remove one Pokemon after it has been brought down to its Sash (Mention how DBond pairs well with Taunt). Will-O-Wisp is also an option, and can help against cripple Pokemon like Bisharp and Tyranitar, who could otherwise play around Destiny Bond. Cursed Body is the chosen ability to potentially cripple an offensive Pokemon (like?) by disabling one of their attacking moves.

Team Options
========

Offensive Pokemon like Gengar, Dragapult, Spectrier, Mimikyu, and Blacephalon appreciate the Spikes support Froslass provides, allowing them to pick up knock outs KO foes much easier thanks to the extra damage. (Honestly I feel like you could elaborate on how Spikes benefits each individual Pokemon by listing some of the foes they cripple for it) Runerigus can form a hazard stacking core with Froslass, with the former providing Stealth Rock and Toxic Spikes to help soften the opposition.

Set Description
========

Spikes allows Froslass to pressure opposing teams by punishing switching, and wearing down opposing Pokemon with hazard damage. Taunt ensures that Defog users like Rotom (Specify which form of Rotom carries Defog, this reads like its Electric/Ghost Rotom who is incredibly bad), Tapu Fini and Corviknight will not be able remove the hazards, while also blocking hazards and status from the likes of Ferrothorn and Toxapex. Icy Wind offers Froslass valuable speed control, ensuring that setup sweepers like Volcarona can't use is it has setup fodder against foes like Volcarona. Destiny Bond potentially allows Froslass to potentially bring an opponent down with it remove one Pokemon after it has been brought down to its Sash. It pairs well with Taunt, since Taunt forces foes to attack Froslass directly. Will-O-Wisp is also an option and can cripple Pokemon like Bisharp and Tyranitar, who could otherwise play around Destiny Bond. Cursed Body is the chosen ability to potentially cripple an offensive Pokemon like Choice Band Weavile and Choice Scarf Buzzwole by disabling one of their attacking moves.

Team Options
========

Offensive Pokemon like Gengar, Dragapult, Spectrier, Mimikyu, and Blacephalon appreciate the Spikes support Froslass provides, allowing them to KO foes much easier. For example, Gengar can benefit from Spikes wearing away at Specially Defensive Tyranitar to the point that Focus Blast can KO it. Spectrier can even benefits immensely from Froslass’s Will-O-Wisp if running Hex since that can save it time from burning an opponent with its own Will-O-Wisp. Mimikyu appreciates Spikes support immensely since it can chip physically defensive walls like Ferrothorn and Hippowdown to the point that a +2 Shadow Claw with Life Orb can 2HKO them. Runerigus can form a hazard stacking core with Froslass, with the former providing Stealth Rock and Toxic Spikes to help soften the opposition.

Icy Wind offers Froslass valuable speed control, ensuring that setup sweepers like Volcarona can't use is it as set up fodder against foes like Volcarona (also add that this synergizes with Dbond as it helps vs faster attackers as they'll be slower than you next round, allowing you to remove them if they attack) . Destiny Bond potentially allows Froslass to potentially bring down an opponent with it. It pairs well with Taunt, since Taunt forces foes to attack Froslass directly.

Cursed Body is the chosen ability to potentially cripple (it would be nice if you could find a synonym for cripple as you used it in the previous sentence) Choice-locked offensive Pokemon such as like Choice Band Weavile and Choice Scarf Buzzwole(I think Swole isnt scary for Ghost teams at all, since you resist its stabs, Dragapult, Zarude, or Zeraora would be better) by disabling one of their attacking moves, giving its teammates the opportunity to setup.

*Add Aegislash, it can deal with stuff like Clefable, Hatterene that Froslass really can't handle + with Spikes, it can overwhelm physically defensive mons alongside Mimi and Pult
*add descriptions for the rest of the team mates
*Spikes can wear down Blacephalon's checks like Heatran and Drapion, allowing it to have an easier time sweeping (non-Bisharp) Steel- and Poison-teams.
*Dragapult benefits from Spikes as Pex almost never cannot come in on a +1 Pult, notably always OHKOs Excadrill (Sand Rush) at +1 with a Spike, and is a strong late-game sweeper because of DD and Speed (especially useful for matchups like Water and Dragon)

Other Options
=============

Froslass has no other viable options.
*Froslass can run screens set w/ light clay but the guarantee of at least having one layer of Spikes with sash is usually more important

2/3
 
-I would talk about Froslass's High 110 Base Speed that allows him to outpace a large part of the metagame helping him to set Spikes easier and to be more annoying with Destiny Bond. (Maybe correlate that to max Speed EVs investment as there is no really Overview to say that)

-Other Options:
Mention Triple Axel/Ice Beam>Icy Wind (they do more damage and can be helpful vs Flying matchup as Spikes are useless, Ice Beam gets OHKOes on mons like Landorus while Triple Axel threatens Gmolt and still does decent damage + can create momentum vs steel birds)

Rest is good, QC: 3/3 after implementing.
Feel free to ask if you have any questions.
