This powerful mushroom is an invaluable asset to any team, being able to cover powerful offensive threats such as Urshifu-R, Raging Bolt, and Flutter Mane thanks to its strong defensive typing and bulk. Rage Powder allows Amoonguss to redirect the above Pokemon's attacks onto itself, and Spore helps disable any opposing threats that might be difficult to overcome like Raging Bolt or Dragonite. These two moves can provide free turns, which are appreciated by setup Pokemon like Kingambit and Gholdengo. Pollen Puff heals teammates that work well with it such as Ogerpon-W, Incineroar, and Flutter Mane while also helping Amoonguss take on Ogerpon-W and other Spore-immune Grass-types. Regenerator allows Amoonguss to constantly answer the aforementioned threats while switching in and out. This EV spread allows Amoonguss to avoid a 2HKO from Choice Specs Flutter Mane Shadow Ball and an OHKO from Adamant Chien-Pao’s Icicle Crash while optimising Sitrus Berry recovery. Tera Water Amoonguss helps it take on Chien-Pao, Tornadus, Incineroar, and Gouging Fire by providing a resistance to the majority of their STAB moves and an overall greater defensive typing while keeping the resistance to Urshifu-R's Surging Strikes.

This powerful shroom is an invaluable asset to any team, being able to cover powerful offensive threats such as Urshifu-R, Rillaboom Raging Bolt, (Better mention as effected by Rage Powder and Spore.) and Flutter Mane thanks to its strong defensive typing and bulk. Rage Powder allows Amoonguss to redirect the enemies’ attacks onto itself, and Spore helps disable any opposing threats that might be difficult to overcome. These two can provide free turns, which is appreciated by set up Pokemon like Kingamit and Gholdengo. Pollen Puff helps Amoonguss take on Ogerpon-W and other powder-immune Grass-types, but also heals teammates that work well with it such as Ogerpon-W, Incineroar and Urshifu-R Flutter Mane. Regenerator allows Amoonguss to constantly answer the aforementioned threats. (Move the highlighted part to the start of the sentence, makes it seem like Pollen Puff is primarily for damage when Sludeg Bomb exists. Urshifu-R is in a much poorer position rn and Flutter Mane is paired more. Feel free to reword Regenerator sentence.) This EV spread allows Amoonguss to avoid a 2HKO from Choice Specs Flutter Mane and an OHKO from Adamant Chien Pao’s Icicle Crash, while optimising Sitrus Berry recovery. Tera Water Amoonguss helps it take on Chien-Pao, Tornadus, Incineroar and Arcanine-Hisui Gouging Fire by resisting a majority of their STAB moves, as well as keeping the resistance to Urshifu-R's Surging Strikes, (Big reason why Water is used over Fire.) as well as being a greater overall defensive typing.

This powerful mushroom is an invaluable asset to any team, being able to cover powerful offensive threats such as Urshifu-R, Raging Bolt, and Flutter Mane thanks to its strong defensive typing and bulk. Rage Powder allows Amoonguss to redirect the enemies’ attacks onto itself, and Spore helps disable any opposing threats that might be difficult to overcome (these two sentences simply offer dex info and do not add anything specific, I'd probably reword them and ideally mention a couple of targets or threats). These two can provide free turns, which is appreciated by set up setup Pokemon like Kingamit Kingambit and Gholdengo. Pollen Puff heals teammates that work well with it such as Ogerpon-W, Incineroar,(AC) and Flutter Mane while also helping Amoonguss take on Ogerpon-W and other powder Spore-immune Grass-types. Regenerator allows Amoonguss to constantly answer the aforementioned threats whilst in switches while switching in and out. This EV spread allows Amoonguss to avoid a 2HKO from Choice Specs Flutter Mane (which move?) and an OHKO from Adamant Chien Pao’s Icicle Crash,(RC) while optimising Sitrus Berry recovery. Tera Water Amoonguss helps it take on Chien-Pao, Tornadus, Incineroar,(AC) and Gouging Fire by resisting a providing a resistance to the majority of their STAB moves,(RC) as well as and an overall greater defensive typing while keeping the resistance to Urshifu-R's Surging Strikes,(RC) as well as being a greater overall defensive typing.
