Setup Sweeper

A boost move that raises an attacking stat it actually has (95+), in either of the two shapes that win games. Compounding — the move raises offense and Speed (Dragon Dance, Quiver Dance, Shell Smash, Shift Gear, Tidy Up, No Retreat, Clangorous Soul…), so every turn you hit harder and move sooner. Or offense-only on a slow body (45 or less Speed): Swords Dance, Nasty Plot, Calm Mind, Belly Drum, Curse — outside Trick Room that is the worse move, but inside it the Speed boost would have been wasted anyway and being slow is the advantage. Curse is the purest case: it deliberately lowers your Speed. (For a Ghost type Curse is a completely different move — half your HP to curse the foe, no Attack boost — so Ghosts do not qualify on it.)
