[SET COMMENTS]
Latios leverages a good Speed tier, sky-high Special Attack, and Calm Mind to be one of the tier's most dangerous wallbreakers and sweepers. Psyshock greatly threatens common RegenVest users such as Swampert, Manaphy, and Meloetta. Recover provides additional longevity, allowing Latios to switch in against foes such as Heatran and Pecharunt and threaten to wallbreak multiple times in a single game. Calm Mind allows Latios to set up against passive foes such as Corviknight and Skarmory. Soul Dew notably makes Adaptability Draco Meteor a guaranteed 2HKO on Corviknight after a Calm Mind, but Leftovers is an option to give Latios more longevity. Adaptability is the preferred ability for consistent high damage, allowing Latios to reliably 2HKO Blissey and RegenVest Swampert with Psyshock, while Tinted Lens is an option to threaten an OHKO on Corviknight and Gholdengo with Draco Meteor after a Calm Mind and 2HKO Heatran and Hisuian Goodra with Psyshock after a boost. Latios works fantastically with other powerful special attackers such as Iron Moth, Zapdos, and Azelf, as they all appreciate RegenVest users and Blissey being weakened. Latios also appreciates slow, physically bulky pivots such as Corviknight, Mandibuzz, and physically defensive Manaphy, who which can both pivot it in safely and effectively check the offensive Dark-types that threaten Latios such as Roaring Moon, Meowscarada, and Chien-Pao. Latios also appreciates the aforementioned Corviknight and Mandibuzz, along with Great Tusk, for their consistent entry hazard removal, allowing it to enter the field and frequently threaten the foe.

Latios leverages a good Speed tier, as well as a sky-high Special Attack, and that is further augmented by Calm Mind to be one of the tiers most dangerous wallbreakers and sweepers. Psyshock allows Latios to effectively have strong physical coverage, allowing it to greatly threaten decent damage against common RegenVesters special defensive walls such as RegenVest Swampert, RegenVest Manaphy, and Blissey, and Meloetta (I mean, not really. Tinted does 47% tops.)and while Recover provides additional longevity, allowing Latios to switch in more easilyeasier and threaten multiple wallbreaks in a single game be able to use Calm Mind more often. Soul Dew boosts the power of Latios' STAB moves, notably making Adaptability Draco Meteor a guaranteed 2HKO on Corviknight after a Calm Mind, but Leftovers is an option to give it more longevity. Adaptability is the preferred ability for consistent high damage, allowing Latios to reliably 2HKO Unaware Blissey and RegenVest Swampert with Psyshock, while Tinted Lens is an option to threaten an OHKOs on both Corviknight and Gholdengo with Draco Meteor and to 2HKO Heatran and Hisuian Goodra with Psyshock. Latios works fantastically with other powerful special attackers such as Iron Moth, Zapdos, and Azelf, as they all appreciate RegenVest users and Blissey being targeted and weakened. Latios is weak against fast, physical Dark-types such as Chien-Pao, Roaring Moon, and Meowscarada, so it also appreciates slow, physically bulky pivots such as Corviknight, Mandibuzz, and physically defensive Great Tusk, Manaphy, who can both all of which can pivot it in safely to counter these significant threats.as well as effectively check the offensive Dark-types that threaten Latios such as Roaring Moon, Meowscarada, and Chien-Pao. Latios also appreciates Corviknight, and Mandibuzz, and Great Tusk along with Great Tusk, for because of their consistent hazard removal, allowing Latios to enter the field without taking chip damage and frequently threaten the foe.

Adaptability is the preferred ability for consistent high damage, allowing Latios to reliably 2HKO Unaware Blissey and RegenVest Swampert with Psyshock, while Tinted Lens is an option to threaten an OHKO on Corviknight and Gholdengo with Draco Meteor and to 2HKO Heatran and Hisuian Goodra with Psyshock. should probably specify if boosted or not Latios works fantastically with other powerful special attackers such as Iron Moth, Zapdos, and Azelf, as they all appreciate RegenVest users and Blissey being targeted and weakened. Latios also appreciates slow, physically bulky pivots such as Corviknight, Mandibuzz, and physically defensive Manaphy, who can both pivot it in safely as well as effectively check the offensive Dark-types that threaten Latios such as Roaring Moon, Meowscarada, and Chien-Pao.

yea, this is good, who would've thought; 1/2

small note for gambit

I'm sure you've already been told this, but it's still important: try to focus more on making content edits rather than risking adding GP errors. It'll go a long way in improving your checks!

Latios leverages a good Speed tier, sky-high Special Attack, and Calm Mind to be one of the tiers most dangerous wallbreakers and sweepers. Psyshock allows Latios to effectively have strong physical coverage I'd consider rewording this, it reads identical to the other AAA Latios analyses. just letting you know, allowing it to greatly threaten common RegenVesters RegenVest users such as Swampert, Manaphy, and Meloetta, and Recover provides additional longevity, allowing Latios to switch in against foes such as Heatran or Pecharunt and threaten multiple wallbreaks in a single game I would probably try to combine this in some way with the Calm Mind mention, since they synergize with each other compared to Recover + Psyshock. Calm Mind allows Latios to set-up(RH) against passive foes such as Corviknight, Skarmory, or You can mention CM + Recover here since they talk about similar enough things. (AP) Soul Dew boosts the power of Latios's STAB moves, notably making Adaptability Draco Meteor a guaranteed 2HKO on Corviknight after a Calm Mind, but Leftovers is an option to give it more longevity. Adaptability is the preferred ability for consistent high damage, allowing Latios to reliably 2HKO Unaware No need to mention Unaware if you're using Psyshock against it Blissey and RegenVest Swampert with Psyshock, while Tinted Lens is an option to threaten an OHKO on Corviknight and Gholdengo with Draco Meteor after a Calm Mind, as well as 2HKOing Heatran and Hisuian Goodra with Psyshock after a boost. Latios works fantastically with other powerful special attackers such as Iron Moth, Zapdos, and Azelf, as they all appreciate RegenVest users and Blissey being targeted and weakened Could mention here that they can together overwhelm special walls, your call. Latios also appreciates slow, physically bulky pivots such as Corviknight, Mandibuzz, and physically defensive Manaphy, who can both pivot it in safely as well as effectively check the offensive Dark-types that threaten Latios such as Roaring Moon, Meowscarada, and Chien-Pao. Latios also appreciates the aformentioned Corviknight and Mandibuzz, along with Great Tusk, for their consistent hazard removal, allowing Latios to enter the field and frequently threaten the foe.
