[SET COMMENTS]

Mantine serves a niche in checking many offensive Water-types such as Ash-Greninja, Manaphy, and Mega Swampert, which are commonly seen on rain teams. It can also check other offensive presences such as Heatran, Kommo-o, and Mega Charizard Y, making Mantine a solid defensive option on certain teams. However, it tends to be shaky defensively because it's easy to overwhelm, forcing it to constantly use Roost, as well as being incredibly weak to Knock Off. Haze lets Mantine comfortably check Manaphy and Volcarona by negating their setup. Meanwhile, Toxic allows it to punish switch-ins like Slowking, Tangrowth, and Hydreigon. Defog is another option, but since Mantine loses to or gets crippled by many Stealth Rock setters in the tier such as Garchomp, Clefable, and Mega Tyranitar, it is generally not a good sole Defogger. A specially defensive spread is used so Mantine checks special threats such as Heatran, Ash-Greninja, and Volcarona. Water Absorb allows Mantine to safely switch into Water-type moves from the likes of Urshifu-R, Ash-Greninja, and Manaphy.

Due to its resilience against Water-types, Mantine is a great defensive backbone for teams that feature a wincon that struggles against Water-type Pokemon, so the likes of Gliscor, Volcarona, and Excadrill make for excellent teammates, often luring in Water-types like Urshifu-R, Mega Swampert, and Ash-Greninja. Due to Mantine's crippling weakness to Electric-types, it appreciates partners that are able to handle the likes of Zeraora, Tapu Koko, and Magnezone. Therefore, pairing it up with Gliscor, Ferrothorn, or Landorus-T makes for a solid defensive core. It's also susceptible to Rock-types such as Mega Tyranitar and Mega Diancie, so it appreciates teammates such as Hippowdon, Gastrodon, and Ferrothorn, which are able to switch into their attacks. Meanwhile, Mantine checks Fire- and Water-types for them in return. Its weakness to Knock Off means it likes Pokemon that don't mind taking Knock Off such as Mega Scizor, Gliscor, and Z-Move variants of Hydreigon and Heatran. Due to Mantine's amazing matchup against rain teams, Pokemon that struggle with rain such as Landorus-T, Excadrill, Tyranitar, and Heatran appreciate having it to fall back on defensively in this matchup.

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

A physically defensive EV spread can be used to check the likes of Mega Scizor, Gliscor, and Excadrill. However, these easily overpower Mantine anyway, and not investing into Special Defense leaves it easily overpowered by Manaphy, Ash-Greninja, and Volcarona.

Checks and Counters
===================

**Electric-types and Electric-type Coverage**: Due to Mantine's 4x Electric weakness, any users of Electric-type attacks, whether Electric-types such as Zeraora and Tapu Fini or other Pokemon like Reuniclus, Clefable, and Mega Latias, can force it out.

**Chip Damage**: Mantine already struggles with being overwhelmed and constantly being forced to use Roost. Therefore, it becomes easy to overpower long-term after losing its Heavy-Duty Boots to Knock Off from the likes of Toxapex, Mega Scizor, and Clefable, or taking Toxic from the likes of Toxapex, Heatran, and Kommo-o.

**Rock-types and Rock-type Coverage**: The likes of Tyranitar and Mega Diancie are able to force out Mantine with their STAB moves, and Pokemon like Landorus-T and Garchomp, which tend to run Rock-type moves, are able to force it out as well. None of these appreciate switching into a Scald, however.

Mantine serves a niche in being able to check and counter many top tier Water-types such as Ash-Greninja, Manaphy, and Urshifu-RS. It is also able to soft check other staples such as Heatran, Mega Scizor, and Excadrill Mega Charizard Y, this lets Mantine act as a solid defensive option on certain teams. Mention its negatives here, also I don't like the focus on waters here, it makes it seem like it's a good check to gren and shifu when it isn't (gren breaks thru with 1 flinch and shifu breaks thru after 1 u turn), edit the first 2 sentences to remove the focus frm waters and to mantines good rain MU as that's the only good part abt it Haze is used so that Mantine can comfortably check Manaphy and Volcarona by removing their stat boots. It may also use Toxic to allow it to punish switch-ins like Slowking, Tangrowth, and Hydreigon mention the negatives of dropping haze. Defog lets Mantine clear the field of entry hazards. However, due to it losing to, or getting crippled by many Stealth Rock setters in the tier such as Garchomp, Clefable, and Mega Tyranitar, it is generally not best served as a sole defogger. A spread investing in Physical Defense is used to allow Mantine to better check Mega Scizor, Mega Swampert and Urshifu-RS, with the given Speed allowing it to outspeed many physical attackers such as Azumaril bad, Mega Scizor, and Mega Mawile. Mention why water absorb is used

Due to its resilience against Water-types, it acts as a stellar defensive backbone for teams that feature a wincon that struggles against Water-types, the likes of Gliscor, Heatran, and Mega Charizard Y dosent really hate waters too much, mention smth else here make for excellent teammates due to their tendency to lure in Water-types like Urshifu-RS or Ash-Greninja. Due to Mantine's crippling weakness to Electric-types, it appreciates being paired up with Pokemon that are able to handle the likes of Zeraora, Tapu Koko, and Magnezone. As such pairing it up with Gliscor, Ferrothorn, or Hippowdon make for a solid defensive core, as they are able to check Electric- and Rock-types for Mantine, while Mantine checks Fire- and Water-types for them. Its weakness to Knock Off means that pairing it up with Pokemon that don't mind getting Knocked Off taking a Knock Off, such as Mega Scizor, Gliscor or Z move variants of Hydreigon or Heatran let them absorb Knock Offs directed towards Mantine mention mons that like it checking rain

Checks and Counters
===================

**Electric-types and Electric-type coverage**: Due to Mantines weakness to electric-type attacks, Electric-types such as Zeraora, Tapu Koko, and Magnezone are able to threaten out Mantine with their stabs, and Pokemon that carry electric-type coverage such as Reuniclus, Clefable, and Mega Latias are able to threaten it out as well.

**Knock Off**: Mantine relies a lot on its Heavy-Duty Boots to stay healthy throughout a game, as such getting them removed by Knock Off from the likes of Toxapex, Mega Scizor, and Mega Mawile make Mantine vulnerable to entry hazards long term.

**Toxic**: Getting Toxiced by the likes of Toxapex, Heatran, Or Kommo-o will severely cripple Mantine's longevity
