Incineroar

Incineroar operates as an offensive utility piece, running maximum Attack investment to surprise opponents who expect a defensive set. Intimidate on switch-in weakens physical attackers, while Fake Out creates a free turn for Trick Room setup or Eruption. Darkest Lariat ignores opponent stat boosts and threatens Ghost types. Flare Blitz deals heavy damage to Steel and Grass types that opponents often leave in carelessly. Snarl drops opposing special attackers like Charizard and Gardevoir. Focus Sash allows survival of Fighting-type moves like Close Combat from Sneasler and Sacred Sword from Gallade. Nature not explicitly stated in source; Hardy assumed.
