Choice Band Chien-Pao is a threatening wallbreaker thanks to its high Speed and decent STAB coverage that hits common Fur Coat users like Gholdengo and Hippowdon. Sucker Punch picks off faster offensive threats such as Iron Bundle and Dragapult; alternatively, Ice Shard is weaker but hits Roaring Moon super effectively. Sacred Sword beats Steel-types like Kingambit and bypasses Garganacl's Defense boosts. Sword of Ruin is its most powerful offensive ability, while Mold Breaker is more efficient at dismantling Fur Coat walls. Chien-Pao's best fit is on balance teams that can provide it with safe switch-ins and take advantage of the holes it creates. Iron Valiant and Ceruledge are recommended teammates, as both can help Chien-Pao beat the incredibly troublesome Dondozo and Toxapex. Corviknight and Iron Treads are both good teammates thanks to their ability to pivot Chien-Pao in safely, in addition to clearing Stealth Rock.

Choice Band Chien-Pao is a threatening wallbreaker thanks to high Speed and decent STAB moves and coverage that hits and good matchup into common Fur Coat users like Gholdengo and Hippowdon. Icicle Crash and Crunch provide maximum power, with their secondary effects occasionally allowing Chien-Pao to beat would-be checks like Garganacl and Iron Treads. Sucker Punch picks off faster offensive threats such as Iron Bundle and Dragapult. Sacred Sword allows Chien-Pao to hit Steel-types like Iron Treads and Kingambit super effectively and ignore, as well as ignoring Defense boosts on Pokemon like Garganacl. Chien-Pao's best fit is on balance teams that can support its ability to break through walls and exploit the holes it creates. Iron Valiant and Ceruledge are recommended teammates, as both can help Chien-Pao beat the incredibly troublesome Dondozo and Toxapex. Corviknight and Iron Treads are both good teammates thanks to their ability to pivot Chien-Pao in safely, in addition to clearing Stealth Rock.
