Build Notes

This Incineroar runs Jolly with maxed Speed and HP rather than the usual offensive bulk spread. The Speed investment hits a specific benchmark to threaten certain targets before Trick Room is established. Assault Vest boosts Special Defense without requiring passive moves. But prevents Parting Shot, so U-turn provides pivoting instead. Low Kick deals weight-scaling damage against heavy targets like opposing Tyranitar. Fake Out flinches threats before Trick Room goes up. Intimidate helps protect the slower sweepers from physical pressure during the setup window.
