    I mean in terms of how playstyle matches the pokemon, Incineroar might be one of the best. He is based on a heel wrestler, so what does he do? He comes in, intimidates everyone, hits someone with a surprise attack, no sells the opponents attacks, fights dirty taking away their items, maybe does one super flashy move to get a KO, then tags back out before any major damage can be dealt to him.

    The scariest thing about Incineroar to me is how many different roles it can compress. Like yeah, looking at my opponents team can give me a rough idea of how their Incin may play but that doesn't stop Incin from having a gazillion moves to surprise you with that you weren't expecting

    Whenever I hear about competitive Incineroar, I think about Moxie Boosted's video on the strongest starter Pokemon. "An overpowered Pokemon is something like Urshifu, which necessitates it usage due to its lack of counters. Incineroar, on the other hand, had counters. It was just so reliable that you didn't mind it. No one has ever said, 'oh, i would have won if my opponent didn't have Incineroar, 'cause it was just, like clicking Fake Out and Snarl and stuff.'"
    Honestly, Incineroar has been one of my favorite Pokemon from the moment it was announced. I love its design (I'm a sucker for its championship belt made of fire), its personality, how it plays in Smash...heck, the fact it's a support Pokemon relying on tricks like Intimidate, Fake Out, and Parting Shot while pissing people like Wolfe off so much means it's pulling off its "heel wrestler" thing expertly.

    The weird thing is also that Incineroar is not an inherently unfair or unbalanced Pokémon. It doesn't have unblockable moves like Urshifu, a game breaking moveset like Smeargle, an instawin button like Xerneas, ludicrously over the top stats like Calyrex or Zacian, instant battlefield changes like Groudon/Kyogre or the Tapus, or a truly broken ability like Chien-Pao. It just has the perfect amount of stats, moves, typing, and ability to become the most optimal support Pokémon ever.

I've always really liked Incin's design, it's so tauntingly cool and the heel inspiration makes it even more so! It looks like a cartoon majestic cool humorous evil villain and the "humanoid" design fits it so well it's not a minus but a plus! Like, I can totally see it a Kung Fu Panda villain or something lmao. Or just it's appearance in Pokken is so badass, Incin really fit the fighting game aesthetic so much it'll also look good in Tekken etc! Everything about it is just perfect synergy, it doesn't even need a broken superpower, just an awesome toolkit! Best support and taking the overall crown with the war chest of "why be first when you can be second?"

    There's a lot I could say about Incineroar, but the comments have all said most of it for me. However, there IS one thing I'd like to point out that I haven't found yet. When this fluffy monster came out initially people would go on and on about how Oh the dark type doesn't fit it! It should be fire fighting, because it's a wrestler! But with how it plays - being a support mon that relies on tricks and low blows, rather than an offensive mon - it became apparent that it's typing did make sense. The cat is dark type because it doesn't fight clean, but rather dirty. It removes all the tools you should have on a fair playing field, and then cripples your ability to compete at the same level as it.
