Ursaluna: A Physical Tank

Ursaluna is a powerful Pokémon when used in Scarlet and Violet. This is about the one you only get in Hisui, don’t get mistaken. Here’s how it would be a monster in battle.
Step 1: Make sure its ability is Guts. It has 140 Attack, so it majors in physical attacks with that ability. Give it a Flame Orb, so it activates the ability at its second turn, without lowering its Attack stat.
Step 2: Use the Mirror Herb trick to give it the move Belly Drum. It will pair very well with its ability.
Step 3: Increase its EVs in Defense, in case you encounter another physical threat. Its high HP also helps.
Step 4: Give it the moves Headlong Rush and Facade. Headlong Rush would do massive damage, and Facade will be super useful with the ability, making Ursaluna a terrific Facade user.
Normally, I use Ursaluna for Tera Raids, but it’s also a good competitive Pokémon with these strategies. Tell me if this advice helped you.
