Chien-Pao is a fast physical attacker that uses its good Speed tier and strong STAB attacks to threaten popular Pokemon like Koraidon, Miraidon, and Calyrex-S. Ice Spinner is used as a consistent Ice-type STAB move that can remove Terrains that Pokemon like Indeedee-F, Miraidon, and Rillaboom set up. Removing Psychic Terrain can allow Chien-Pao to threaten Calyrex-S with a super effective Sucker Punch. Alternatively, Icicle Crash hits less consistently, but it avoids Rocky Helmet damage, can cause foes to flinch, and keeps up Terrains that would benefit Chien-Pao. Sucker Punch gives Chien-Pao a priority option that can KO faster Pokemon such as Speed Booster Energy Flutter Mane and Iron Bundle. Sacred Sword allows Chien-Pao to hit Pokemon that resist its STAB moves like Incineroar and Zamazenta-C. Chien-Pao can run Throat Chop as a consistent Dark-type STAB attack that can hit Lunala and Calyrex-S even if they didn't use an attacking move. Throat Chop also prevents Incineroar from using Parting Shot. Focus Sash allows Chien-Pao to survive at least one attack and to give it the opportunity to use another move due to its high Speed. Chien-Pao can use Tera Ghost to become immune to Fighting while also avoiding priority attacks like Fake Out and Extreme Speed that would otherwise break its Focus Sash. Tera Stellar is a more offensive option that allows Chien-Pao to pick up KOs that it would otherwise miss out on like bulky Flutter Mane.

Chien-Pao pairs well with physical attackers like Zacian-C and Urshifu-R, since they can take advantage of Sword of Ruin to increase their damage. In addition, Urshifu-R can remove Pokemon that resist both of Chien-Pao's STAB moves like Incineroar, while Chien-Pao can threaten Grass- and Dragon-types that resist Urshifu-R's Surging Strikes like Rillaboom and Raging Bolt. The best check for Chien-Pao is Incineroar, which can lower its Attack with Intimidate as well as resist both its STAB moves. Zacian-C also resists Chien-Pao's STAB moves and threatens it with all of its attacks.

Paragraph 1
Chien-Pao is a fast physical attacker that uses its good speed Speed tier and strong stab STAB attacks to threaten popular pokemon like Koriadon, Miriadon Miraidon, and Calyrex Shadow Calyrex-S (shorten it in analysis's). Ice Spinner is used as a more consistent ice Ice-type (add hyphon) stab STAB move that can remove the terrain that pokemon like Indeedee, Miriadon and Rillaboom set up. (I'd reccomend adding something about how removing psy-terrain can help with using sucker vs caly-s deedee teams.) Alternatively, Icicle Crash is used since it avoids Rocky Helmet damage and has a chance to flinch at the cost of a reduced accuracy. (Not removing terrain for your rilla is a big one, add that) Sucker Punch gives Chien-Pao a priority option and that can be used to secure kills on faster pokemon Pokemon. Sacred Sword allows Chien-Pao to hit pokemon like Incineroar, Zamazenta-C, (add comma) and Zacian-C that resist both of its Chien-Pao's stabs STAB moves. Focus Sash lets allows Chien-Pao live at least one an attack and get multiple another attacks attack off using its high Speed. Chien-Pao can use Tera Ghost to become immune to fighting type attacks while also avoiding priority attacks like Fake Out and Extreme Speed that would otherwise break its Focus Sash. (I dont think the Fake Out immunity is used entirely because it breaks Chien-Pao's sash, you could say something like "It keeps up the momentum of the game since you avoid Fake Outs.) More offensive sets can run Tera Stellar to get a one-time boost on all of its attacks. This allows for Chien-Pao to pick up kills that it would otherwise miss out on.

Paragraph 2
-Chien-Pao pairs well with physical attackers like Zacian-C and Urshifu-R that can use take advantage of Sword of Ruin to increase their damage. In addition, Urshifu-R can remove pokemon like Incineroar that resist both of Chien-Pao's stabs STAB moves, (add comma) while Chien-Pao threatens grass Grass- and dragon Dragon-types like Rillaboom and [Dragon-type example] that resist Urshifu-R's Surging Strikes. The best check for Chien-Pao is Incineroar, (add comma) since it resists both its ice and dark type attacks (mentioned above) as well as lowering its as it can lower Chien-Pao's attack with intimidate Intimidate. Zacian-C also resists both ice and dark of Chien-Pao's STAB moves as well as threatening Chien-Pao with its steel and fairy attacks. (This feels pretty irrelevant since basically everything threatens to break its sash. If you keep it in, capitalize Steel and Fairy.)

Paragraph 1
Chien-Pao is a fast physical attacker that uses its good Speed tier and strong STAB attacks (maybe mention how threatening sword of ruin makes it, up to you) to threaten popular Pokemon like Koriadon, Miriaidon, and Calyrex S. Ice Spinner is used as a more consistent Ice-type stab that can remove the terrain that Pokemon like Indeedee-F, Miraidon and Rillaboom set up. Removing Psychic Terrain can allow Chien-Pao to hit Calyrex-S with a super effective (dex info, you can replace hit with threaten if you like) Sucker Punch. Alternatively, Icicle Crash is used since it avoids Rocky Helmet damage and has a chance to flinch at the cost of a reduced accuracy while also not removing terrain set up by an ally. Sucker Punch gives Chien-Pao a priority option that can be used to secure kills on faster Pokemon. Sacred Sword allows Chien-Pao to hit pokemon like Incineroar, and Zamazenta-C, and Zacian-C (you don't hit zacian that hard) that resist both of Chien-Pao's STAB moves. Focus Sash allows Chien-Pao to live at least one attack and get another attack off using its high Speed. Chien-Pao can use Tera Ghost to become immune to fighting type attacks while also avoiding priority attacks like Fake Out and Extreme Speed that would otherwise break its Focus Sash. More offensive sets can run Tera Stellar to get a one time boost on all of its attacks. This allows Chien-Pao to pick up kills that it would otherwise miss out on (like?).

Paragraph 2
-Chien-Pao pairs well with physical attackers like Zacian-C and Urshifu-R that can take advantage of Sword of Ruin to increase their damage. In addition, Urshifu-R can remove pokemon like Incineroar that resist both of Chien-Pao's STAB moves while Chien-Pao threatens Grass and Dragon types like Rillaboom and Raging Bolt that resist Urshifu-R's Surging Strikes. The best check for Chien-Pao is Incineroar since it as well as it can lower Chien-Pao's attack with a Intimidate as well as resisting both Chien-Pao's STABS. Zacian-C also resists both Ice and Dark as well as threatening Chien-Pao with its Steel and Fairy attacks.

More offensive sets can run Tera Stellar to pick up KOs that it would otherwise miss out on like bulky Flutter Mane. (what do you mean by more offensive sets here? both ghost and stellar have the same moves and evs, so do you mean more offensive teams benefit more from it?)

Chien-Pao pairs well with physical attackers like Zacian-C and Urshifu-R, since they can take advantage of Sword of Ruin to increase their damage.
