Obstagoon @ Flame Orb
Ability: Guts
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Obstruct
- Facade
- Knock Off
- Close Combat

This punk rocker acts as a strong wallbreaker for Normal teams! Obstruct allows Obstagoon to activate Guts with its Flame Orb, allowing it to pressure bulky types like Poison and Water with its powerful Guts-boosted Facade. Knock Off deals with Ghost- and Psychic-types such as Aegislash and Slowbro and cripples walls such as Celesteela and Galarian Corsola. Close Combat completes Obstagoon's coverage, as it threatens Steel- and Dark-types such as Ferrothorn and Tyranitar. While Obstagoon is a great wallbreaker against bulkier teams, it cannot take a Close Combat from faster threats such as Zeraora and Barraskewda, so Fluffy Bewear makes a great partner. Porygon2 and Blissey act as defensive pivots that can bring Obstagoon in safely and spread status or set Stealth Rock to help Obstagoon break the opposing team.

Facade, when Obstagoon is Burned, pressures physical walls such as Mandibuzz and Amoonguss. (unnecessary) Knock Off deals with Ghost- and Psychic-types such as Galarian Corsola Aegislash and Slowbro, and cripples walls such as Porygon2 Celesteela and Galarian Corsola. (relevance) Close Combat completes Obstagoon's coverage, as it threatens Steel- and Dark-types such as Ferrothorn and Tyranitar. As cool as Obstagoon is, While Obstagoon is a great wallbreaker against bulkier teams, it cannot take a Close Combat from faster threats such as Zeraora and Barraskewda, so pair it with a Fluffy Bewear Fluffy Bewear makes a great partner. Heliolisk provides a fast team mate and threatens Water-types such as Urshifu-R and Tapu Fini. (i get what you're going for here but seems pretty indirectly related to obstagoon compared to the others) Diggersby is another strong wallbreaker that can pressure Steel- and Poison-type teams alongside Obstagoon and loves its ability to absorb status. Porygon2 and Blissey act as defensive pivots that can bring Obstagoon in safely. (would mention p2 providing status / blissey providing rocks to help obstagoon break)

this reads more like an analysis and not like a spotlight, since a spotlight covers more why a set/mon is good on the metagame and doesn't need to explain every move really. but with these changes it should be good imo
