Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Ivy Cudgel
- Power Whip / Horn Leech
- Knock Off / Low Kick / Trailblaze
[SET COMMENTS]
When boosted by the power of Rocky Payload and its Cornerstone Mask, Ogerpon-C is a devastating wallbreaker that's capable of threatening nearly the entire metagame due to the lack of capable Rock-resistant Pokemon. Power Whip is Ogerpon-C's strongest Grass-type attack, OHKOing specially defensive Manaphy and having a good chance to OHKO offensive Great Tusk, while Horn Leech can provide recovery if desired. For the last moveslot, Knock Off has a good chance of OHKOing Gholdengo at +2, Low Kick deals with Hisuian Goodra and Kingambit, and Trailblaze increases Ogerpon-C's effectiveness against faster teams. Other physical wallbreakers like Chien-Pao and Roaring Moon appreciate Ogerpon-C's presence, as together they can overwhelm physical walls such as Corviknight, Skarmory, and Great Tusk. Ogerpon-C's poor defensive typing and average Speed means it appreciates slow, bulky pivots such as Corviknight, RegenVest Swampert, and RegenVest Manaphy to provide it with safe entry onto the field. Its Speed also leaves it prone to getting picked off by faster offensive Pokemon such as Chien-Pao, so speedy teammates such as Barraskewda, Choice Scarf Azelf, and Choice Scarf Roaring Moon are appreciated.
