White plays next: ?(?) matches with
?(?) at a,

?(?) at c?,
?(?) at d?
and ?(?) tenuki?.
What does Black have here? after a tenuki?
The high pincer is a comfortable and simple way of controlling White as there're only two common replies (joseki) at b, which leads to White staying low on the right and Black having a very strong wall or a when the previous would be disastrous.
