[SET COMMENTS]

Bewear is an incredibly strong wallbreaker that uses Fluffy and its typing to take advantage of staples like Zarude, Steelix, and Registeel. However, its low Speed and Special Defense leaves it easy pickings for common faster special attackers such as Noivern, Chandelure, and Toxtricity. Drain Punch mitigates damage from tanking physical attacks and recoil from using Double-Edge. At +2 Attack, Close Combat gets OHKOs that Drain Punch misses out on such as against Steelix, Rhyperior, and Diancie after Stealth Rock. Darkest Lariat covers Ghost-types like Chandelure, Mimikyu, and Doublade while also providing a hard-hitting move without recoil for Psychic-types like Galarian Slowbro and Reuniclus. Chople Berry prevents faster threats such as Heracross and Mienshao from easily revenge killing Bewear, while Silk Scarf boosts Double-Edge for an almost guaranteed OHKO on Galarian Slowbro and Galarian Weezing after Stealth Rock. Jolly is the preferred nature to outspeed bulky Togekiss and Choice Specs Sylveon. Silk Scarf variants can run an Adamant nature to OHKO Reuniclus after Swords Dance while ensuring the OHKOs on Galarian Slowbro and Galarian Weezing after Stealth Rock.

VoltTurn support is invaluable for Bewear, as it often struggles to safely switch in and can get pivoted on by the likes of Zarude. Raikou, Noivern, and Dragalge are notable examples, as they can provide a free switch against Pokemon that Bewear takes advantage of such as Steelix and Registeel. Stealth Rock support is crucial for important KOs like the near-guaranteed OHKO on Galarian Slowbro with +2 Silk Scarf-boosted Double-Edge. Metagross and Registeel cover Fairy-types for Bewear while setting up Stealth Rock. Seismitoad and Rhyperior are Stealth Rock setters that check Fire-types such as Darmanitan, Incineroar, and in Seismitoad's case, Volcanion. Steel-types such as Metagross, Registeel, and Klefki deal with a major nuisance for Bewear in Flying-types like Togekiss, Noivern, and Crobat. Klefki is also notable for providing Spikes support and Thunder Wave to slow down faster threats like Noivern. Other Spikers such as Roserade, Golisopod, and Dragalge help wear down walls while providing additional support in Sleep Powder, Knock Off, or Flip Turn. Roserade and Dragalge also check Electric-types trying to revenge kill Bewear such as Raikou and Xurkitree. Pokemon such as Zarude, Noivern, and Sharpedo appreciate Bewear breaking through Fairy-types like Sylveon and Galarian Weezing. Bewear is an excellent Knock Off absorber and can come in on Knock Off users trying to remove valuable items from Pokemon like Zarude, Noivern, and Reuniclus.

[SET COMMENTS]

Choice Band Bewear utilizes its Fluffy ability and typing to switch into common Pokemon such as Zarude and immediately fire off incredibly strong attacks. However, as a wallbreaker, it is greatly hindered by its prediction-reliant nature, and with its average Speed, faster special attackers such as Noivern, Togekiss, and Toxtricity can effortlessly deal with it. The recovery from Drain Punch prevents Bewear from quickly getting worn down from tanking physical attacks and using Double-Edge. Darkest Lariat nails Ghost-types such as Chandelure, Mimikyu, and Doublade. A Jolly nature is used to outspeed bulky Togekiss and Choice Specs Sylveon.

Bewear is an incredibly strong wallbreaker, but its low Speed and Special Defense leaves it easy picking for common faster special attackers such as Noivern, Chandelure, and Toxtricity. However, Bewear's Fluffy ability coupled with its typing lend it ample opportunities to set up and plow through the opposite team by taking advantage of staples like Zarude, Cobalion, and Registeel. (rewrite / reorder this to have it clearly reflect positives first, followed by negatives. the way u have it rn kinda jumbled). Drain Punch mitigates damage from tanking physical attacks and recoil from Double-Edge. At +2 Attack, Close Combat picks up KOs that Drain Punch misses out on such as Steelix, Rhyperior, and Diancie after Stealth Rock. (might wanna touch on the fact that the defense drops kinda deter its use because it makes it more vulnerable even though the move has more oomph than drain punch). Darkest Lariat completes Bewear's coverage by covering Ghost-types like Chandelure, Mimikyu, and Doublade. (mention that u hit psy-types as well, since having lariat means u hit those hard without having to take d-edge recoil, otherwise eq wld be better for ghosts since u hit all of those targets better). Chople Berry prevent faster threats such as Heracross and Thundurus from easily revenge killing Bewear., (change period to comma here) while Silk Scarf boosts its Double-Edge, and thus, enhances its wall-breaking capabilities. alongside an Adamant nature secures the OHKO on Galarian Slowbro, Reuniclus, and Galarian Weezing with Double-Edge after a Swords Dance and Stealth Rock. For non-Silk Scarf variants, Jolly is the preferred nature to outspeed Choice Specs Sylveon and Jolly Pangoro. Silk Scarf variants can be run with an Adamant nature, so that with a Swords Dance boost under its belt, it is able to net OHKOs on Galarian Slowbro, Reuniclus, and Galarian Weezing with Double-Edge after Stealth Rock. (don't have to follow this exact way of writing, just a suggestion and a way to show the order id like it to be listed. this is cuz silk scarf variants can still run jolly perfectly fine since the speed tier is rly nice and u wld just need a bit more chip against those mons, ada is just a way to get the guaranteed power vs those. jolly w silk scarf is also nice to get the jump on good togekiss spreads that dont run as much spe so as to always live 2 thousand arrows from zyg-10%).

VoltTurn support is invaluable for Bewear, as it often struggles to safely switch in or gets pivoted on by the likes of Zarude. Thundurus, Noivern, and Dragalge are notable examples, as they can provide a free switch against Pokemon that Bewear takes advantage of such as Steelix and Registeel. Stealth Rock support is crucial to ensure important KOs like the OHKO on Galarian Slowbro with boosted Double-Edge. (hmm not sure if theres a good way to work in that it has to be silk scarf and ada, cuz it can be misleading otherwise, tho can be tough to phrase). Metagross and Registeel cover Fairy-types for Bewear while setting up Stealth Rock. Seismitoad and Rhyperior are Stealth Rock setters that check Fire-types such as Darmanitan, Incineroar, and in Seismitoad's case Volcanion for Bewear. Steel-types such as Metagross, Registeel, and Klefki deals with two major nuisances for Bewear in Fairy- and Flying-types like Togekiss, Noivern, and Crobat. (togekiss is covered under flying types, doesnt seem worth to mention fairies unless u are giving other examples not named togekiss). Klefki is also notable for providing Spikes support and Thunder Wave to slow down faster threats like Noivern. Pokemon such as Zarude, Noivern, and Sharpedo appreciate Bewear breaking Fairy-types like Sylveon and Galarian Weezing.

for the underlined part, rework it into a general spikes + toxic spikes mention. spikes / toxic spikes is nice overall for bewear for a few reasons, softens checks, which results in less d-edge recoil, and also helps improve drain punch calcs. you can do it with the mons mentioned being klefki, roserade, and dragalge. klefki for the reasons u have mentioned (name one or two more faster threats twave is helpful against tho), the latter 2 to check some of the elecs that can rly pressure bewear after each kill.

Choice Band Bewear utilizes its Fluffy ability and typing to switch into common Pokemon such as Zarude and immediately fire off incredibly strong attacks. However, as a wallbreaker, Bewear is greatly hindered by the prediction reliant nature of the set, (AC) and with its low average Speed., (period to comma here) Faster faster special attackers such as Noivern, Togekiss, and Toxtricity are abundant in RU and can effortlessly deal with Bewear. (concise and doesnt miss out important info rly. also wldnt rly say the spe is low, base 60 is just kinda meh but not slow).

might wanna mention some stuff to help v bulky psys, u cant force thru them as hard as with sd, so cld be helpful to have some teammates to help w those.

As discussed on Discord I'd like to see CB being more specific about what it does meaningfully over SD and why you would run it before I upload. As it stands now an uninformed reader would see both sets and likely be at a loss of which they should pick.

Let Cryo know once you're done.
