Cetitan's unique combination of Slush Rush and Belly Drum make it a great snow sweeper for Ice teams. Cetitan is able to use Belly Drum in combination with Slush Rush to boost its Attack and Speed to some of the highest in the tier. Icicle Crash is Cetitan's best way of attacking, shredding most foes that aim to stand in its way. Ice Shard is used to pick off the few Choice Scarf users that outspeed Cetitan, such as Meowscarada, Enamorus, and Flutter Mane. Earthquake is useful for hitting the Steel-, Water- and Fire-types that resist Icicle Crash and Ice Shard, such as Heatran, Kingambit, Toxapex, and Ceruledge. Sitrus Berry is used to restore some of Cetitan's HP after Belly Drum, increasing its longevity.

Since Cetitan needs snow to be able to fulfill its role, Alolan Ninetales is a mandatory teammate. Not only can Alolan Ninetales provide snow support, but it can also provide Aurora Veil support, further helping Cetitan stay on the field. Since Cetitan opts to use Sitrus Berry instead of Heavy-Duty Boots, teammates that can remove entry hazards are great support, such as Avalugg and Alolan Sandslash. Avalugg serves better as a dedicated defensive wall, while Sandslash can also take advantage of Slush Rush, Swords Dance, and Knock Off. Kyurem is excellent at dealing with Unaware walls that would otherwise ignore Cetitan's Belly Drum boost; it is able to use Freeze-Dry and defeat walls such as Quagsire and Dondozo while also having access to Earth Power, which defeats Skeledirge. Chien-Pao is a strong wallbreaker that can hit Steel-types that commonly use Air Balloon such as Gholdengo and Heatran. Mamoswine is a good teammate, as it can provide hazard support to break Focus Sash and secure OHKOs on targets such as Corviknight, as well as soften the blow from Fire-type attacks.

Since Cetitan opts to use Sitrus Berry instead of Heavy-Duty Boots, teammates that can remove entry hazards are great support, such as Avalugg and Alolan Sandslash (would go more indepth about if one is better than the other or what niches one provides over the other, since its not clear as you mention both). Kyurem is excellent at dealing with Unaware walls that would otherwise ignore Cetitan's Belly Drum boost, it is able to use Freeze Dry and defeat walls such as Quagsire and Dondozo, while also having access to Earth Power which defeats Skeledirge. Cetitan's Belly Drum means nothing if the opponent has a physical Unaware wall, so Pokemon that can deal with them are excellent teammates, Kyurem can use Freeze-Dry to beat Quagsire and Dondozo, and can use Earth Power to beat Skeledirge.

(i would also put two more teammates as the teammates section is informing the reader on how to build a team around cetitan so they aren't completely lost if they are new. ill leave the qc 2 for that though since the rest of this looks perfect)

looks really good! 1/2

RoyalReloaded I would just add Chien-Pao as a teammate option (Pao is still pao plus it threatens Gholdengo, and Mamoswine for Thick Fat + Entry Hazards to break ceruledge's Focus Sash and also allows cetitan to ohko corvi at +6 and after stealth rocks. Other than that looks good to me!
QC 2/2 after implementing the pao and mamo sentence. well done!
