Bisharp @ Choice Band
Ability: Defiant
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Knock Off
- Sucker Punch
- Iron Head
- Beat Up / Low Kick

Choice Band Bisharp is a very prominent threat with a great offensive typing and devastating Knock Off, which punishes switch-ins with item loss. It's been used a number of times in SPL, often with Future Sight + Teleport support from Slowking to help it break through some of its checks like Toxapex and Tangrowth. Its great STAB coverage leaves it hard to switch into, especially with Beat Up, which can break through checks by hitting harder than Knock Off with enough teammates and by avoiding contact. Low Kick can be used to break through Steel-types like Melmetal and Ferrothorn more easily. Bisharp shines on balance and bulky offense teams that support it with Spikes and Future Sight, which allow it to overpower checks. Urshifu-R, Rillaboom, Kartana, and Tornadus-T are great partners because they benefit from Bisharp baiting and breaking through Flying- and Steel-type checks to them like Zapdos, Corviknight, and Skarmory.


Here are a couple of replays from SPL showcasing this set.

- Beat Up / Low Kick

Choice Band Bisharp is a very prominent wallbreaker threat, and with one of the strongest Knock Offs its able to punish its switchins by removing their item. its offensive typing is what makes it good in this meta, mention that in addition to knock off Its been used a number of times in SPL, notably by Eo and lax, often with FuturePort support from Slowking to help Bisharp break through some of its checks like Toxapex and Tangrowth Buzzwole. defensive buzzwole is horrible and offensive has problems switching into cb iron head It's great STAB coverage leaves it hard to switch into, especially with Beat Up which can be used to break through its checks. this is really vague Low Kick can be used to break through Heatran and Melmetal more easily. Bisharp shines on Balance and Bulky Offensive teams cb bish shines on futureport BOs with the momentum and offensive support to make use of its wallbreaking. even though its usable on balance i would still strongly argue that bo is its best playstyle since it has access to team support like Spikes and Future Sight in those teams which allows it to more easily overpower its checks making it more effective as a wallbreaker. Urshifu-R works as a nice partner as well since it can pivot to Bisharp on Pokemon like Slowking, while also pressuring shared checks like Skarmory and Corviknight, Bisharp also helps by removing the Rocky Helmet from Pokemon like Tangrowth and defensive Garchomp which helps out Urshifu-R with its Rocky Helmet weakness. kartana/rilla/torn are also great offensive partners because of rilla's ability to lure and break through steels and birds super easily (zapdos, corv, ferro come to mind immediately)
