[SET COMMENTS]
Tinkaton finds a niche on Fairy teams thanks to its secondary Steel typing and unique support options. Gigaton Hammer OHKOes Rock- and Fairy-types like Glimmora, Kleavor, Flutter Mane, and Hatterene. Knock Off provides Tinkaton with another offensive option that removes important items from Steel-types such as Corviknight and Archaludon. Swords Dance allows Tinkaton to gain offensive pressure, securing OKHOs on more defensive Pokemon such as Galarian Weezing and Amoonguss while also dealing with walls like Defog Corviknight. Finally, Stealth Rock allows Tinkaton to provide utility when causing havoc offensively isn't an option. The EVs allow Tinkaton to get a jump on threats like Glimmora and Kleavor, with the rest invested into its bulk.

Tinkaton majorly appreciates the support of Flutter Mane, which can use Thunderbolt and Power Gem to handle the Water- and Fire-types that Tinkaton cannot handle, namely Toxapex, Greninja, Ogerpon-H, and Torkoal. Enamorus, thanks to its secondary Flying typing, can switch in to Ground-type attacks from the likes of Great Tusk, Gliscor, Landorus, and Excadrill and threaten back with the appropriate coverage. Klefki and Tinkaton form an entry hazard-stacking core that Fairy's offensive threats appreciate. Tinkaton also enjoys dual screens support from Klefki, making its setup much safer. Mixed Iron Valiant provides incredible coverage, being able to remove targets like Landorus, Toxapex, and Archaludon, which otherwise wall Tinkaton. Hatterene values Tinkaton's utility in Stealth Rock and Knock Off chipping down switch-ins like Alolan Muk and Hisuian Goodra and can support Tinkaton by being able to use Nuzzle and slow down faster threats like Iron Boulder and Iron Valiant, which can threaten Tinkaton. Primarina cherishes Tinkaton's ability to remove Assault Vest from targets like Iron Hands and Galarian Slowking that can prove problematic. In return, Calm Mind Primarina can threaten bulky Steel- and Fire-type targets like Corviknight, Heatran, and Gouging Fire, which are hinderances for Tinkaton. Azumarill takes advantage of Tinkaton's Stealth Rock, which provides crucial chip damage, allowing it to OHKO targets like Tozapex and Corviknight that can be hurdles for both Tinkaton and Azumarill.

Other Options
=============
Fairy
-----------
Thunder Wave can provide valuable support, slowing down threats like Sneasler and Meowscarada and allowing them to be comfortably eliminated. Encore can lock foes into passive moves such as Roost or Recover, giving Tinkaton safe setup opportunities or a safe switch-in for one of its teammates. An alternative EV spread of of 112 HP / 252 Atk / 144 Spe with an Adamant nature can also be used. This EV spread still outspeeds Mamoswine but can now OKHO Gliscor and Primarina with a Swords Dance boost and Stealth Rock chip damage.

Knock Off provides Tinkaton some with another offensive option that removes important items from Steel-types such as Corviknight and Archaludon, while hitting other targets that would otherwise wall Tinkaton such as Gholdengo. offensive utility while Gigaton Hammer is on cool down by being able to remove held items and still deal solid damage. Finally Stealth Rock allows Tinkaton to provide utility when causing havoc offenisvely isn't an option. The EVs of the set allow Tinkaton to get the jump on threats like Glimmora and Kleavor with the rest going into its bulk.

Tinkaton majorly appreciates the support of Flutter Mane which can use Thunderbolt and Powergem to handle the Water- and Fire-types that Tinkaton cannot handle such as Toxapex, Greninja, Ogerpon-H, and Torkoal. Enamorus thanks to its secondary Flying-typing can come in on Ground-type attacks from the likes of Great Tusk, Gliscor, and Landorus, and Excadrill and threaten back with the appropriate coverage Moonblast.

Hatterene appreciates Tinkaton's utility in Stealth Rock and Knock Off chipping down would be switch ins such as Alolan Muk and Hisuian Goodra respectively, (hoodra resists rocks and lefties make it nonexistent chip basically) and can support Tinkaton by providing being able to Nuzzle support giving Tinkaton safe oppertunities to setup and and slow slowing down faster threats like Iron Boulder and Iron Valiant which could remove threaten Tinkaton otherwise. Primarina appreciates Tinkaton's ability to remove Assault Vest from targets like Iron Hands and Galarian Slowking that can prove problematic otherwise, while Tinkaton appreciates Primarina's Flip Turn granting it safe entry.

Surely King Dedede would never steal all the food in the kingdom and hoard it for himself... Why would he do such a vile deed?! Such questions will have to wait, as the king is coming for his eternal rival with all the fury of a wild beast!
Just remember to throw a heart once you do, he'll be your friend.

sapphiree just to clairfy some things that haven't coem up yet
- Don't use who' to refer to a Pokemon because it's not a person, use 'which' or 'that.'
- Respectively is used to clear up ambiguity with two lists, sayig the first item in list 1 applies to only the first item in lsit 2, and the second item in list 1 applies to the second item in list 2. So, Stealth Rock only chips Muk, and Knock Off only chips Goodra. That's not really the case because both would be vulnerable to Knock. Respectively, if used correctly, must also be surrounded by commas.
- Avoid using moves as verbs; Hatterene doesn't Nuzzle, it uses Nuzzle.
- Allows for can alwyas just be 'allows'.
- Foe = opposing Pokemon; opponent = opposing human player. These aren't interchangeable.
