UU Tapu Bulu (UU)

Tapu Bulu @ Life Orb
Ability: Grassy Surge
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Horn Leech
- Close Combat
- Zen Headbutt

Swords Dance Tapu Bulu is one of UU's most terrifying wallbreakers thanks to its spectacular coverage, power, and longevity, and it's capable of easily taking advantage of Pokemon like Rhyperior and Keldeo for setup opportunities thanks to its wonderful bulk and typing. A boosted Horn Leech is ridiculously powerful, capable of heavily denting even Pokemon that resist the attack like Latias, Thundurus, and opposing Tapu Bulu, while Close Combat gives Tapu Bulu coverage for the few Pokemon that can stand up to its mighty STAB such as Rotom-H, Incineroar, and Scizor. Zen Headbutt improves Tapu Bulu's matchup against Kommo-o and Amoonguss, being capable of decimating both of them at +2, though it must be wary of offensive Kommo-o's Poison Jab. Tangrowth is Tapu Bulu's worst enemy, easily fending off even a boosted Close Combat and retaliating with Sludge Bomb; partners that can threaten it like Victini, Rotom-H, and Volcanion are useful as a result. Offensive checks to Tapu Bulu include Nidoqueen and opposing Victini; Slowking is a great partner that can check both of these, and it provides Future Sight support to allow Tapu Bulu to more reliably nuke switch-ins like Amoonguss and Cobalion.

Swords Dance Tapu Bulu is one of UU's most terrifying wallbreakers thanks to its spectacular coverage, power, and longevity, and it's capable of easily taking advantage of Pokemon like Rhyperior and Keldeo for setup opportunities thanks to its wonderful bulk and typing. A boosted Horn Leech is ridiculously powerful, capable of chunking or even KOing Pokemon that resist the attack like Latias, Aegislash, and opposing Tapu Bulu, i get what you mean but it might be a little missleading to phrase it this way with KOing given all of these live +2 from full even when bulkless while Close Combat gives it coverage for the few Pokemon that can stand up to its mighty STAB such as Rotom-H and Scizor. Would definitely mention that its coverage for Incineroar too! Zen Headbutt improves its matchup against Kommo-o and Amoonguss, being capable of decimating both of them at +2. wordcount may be a problem possibly but i'd phrase this in a way that it gives a warning that offensive will outspeed and LO pjab / flame you, that or just say defensive, but zhb is still nice to catch the offensive on switch in with a clean 70-80%. Tangrowth is Tapu Bulu's worst enemy, easily fending off even a boosted Close Combat and retaliating with Sludge Bomb; partners that can threaten it like Victini, Rotom-H, and Volcanion are useful as a result. you could consider mentioning that they break Skarmory here too, which alsodeals with bulu well and uses it for spikes. Offensive checks to Tapu Bulu include Pokemon like Nidoqueen and opposing Victini; Slowking is a great partner that can check both of these, and it provides Future Sight support to allow Tapu Bulu to more reliably nuke switch-ins like Amoonguss and Cobalion.

This looks great. If you can find room for it I'd include a mention of Aegi as a partner too, subtox especially loves grassy terrain support, wears down ur checks like offensive kommo-o and heattom, and checks revenge killers like Jirachi. This would also nicely tie in the point about Grassy terrains team support which you haven't mentioned in the opening.

QC 1/1.
