Answer 1

If your opponent is using a stat boosting move and protect, that means it has only 2 attacks and would be easy to wall. If it's using a stat boosting move and 3 attacks, that means it doesn't have protect and can be double-targeted. Stat lowering moves, like icy wind, snarl, and parting shot (and also intimidate) are useful against offensive Pokemon regardless of whether they boost their own stats, and they also don't have negative priority. So if you hate offensive Pokemon, you should probably just use an Incineroar or something.
