[OVERVIEW]
Corsola's stats make it extremely passive, slow, and a momentum sink, and its defensive typing is also quite bad, since there are a lot of top threats such as Lilligant and Gurdurr that have a type advantage against it. It is outclassed by multiple Stealth Rock users, most notably Omastar, which shares a similar typing to Corsola, Regirock, and Clefairy, which all have better stats and are more threatening. The only redeeming quality that Corsola has is possessing two types of recovery in Recover and Regenerator.

[SET COMMENTS]
This set attempts to set up Stealth Rock and, if possible, status the opposing Pokemon it can check, such as Flying-types like Oricorio-G and Swanna, or switch out to take advantage of Regenerator. Unfortunately, Corsola doesn't really accomplish anything besides setting Stealth Rock and fainting. Omastar, Clefairy, and Regirock fulfill this role with a lot more success because of their better stats and, with the exception of Omastar, typing. Regirock is especially noteworthy because it fills the same role, checks very similar Pokemon, and generally has more to offer in a team slot.
