Build Notes

Kingambit is the Incineroar and Intimidate counter. Defiant turns any attack drop into a +2 Attack boost, punishing the ubiquitous Intimidate and Parting Shot chains that define the format. Kowtow Cleave never misses and bypasses Evasion, while Sucker Punch provides priority priority to pick off weakened threats. Chople Berry survives a Fighting-type attack, letting it retaliate. Maximum HP and Attack investment with Adamant maximizes its role as a hard-hitting late-game cleaner that thrives when opposing Intimidate users are on the field.
