[SET COMMENTS]
  • Choice Specs Iron Valiant is a potent offensive threat that is difficult to switch into thanks to its spammable STAB attacks and high Speed under Electric Terrain.
  • Thunderbolt breaks through Corviknight and Toxapex and is further boosted by Electric Terrain. Shadow Ball pressures Skeledirge and Scream Tail, but Psyshock is an option to beat Clodsire, which would wall this set otherwise.
  • Fairy is Iron Valiant's best Tera type, as it makes its Moonblast incredibly difficult to switch into, threatening to OHKO Flutter Mane, while maintaining its Dragon immunity and resistance to Sucker Punch from Kingambit and Chien-Pao.
  • Iron Valiant fits on offensive teams that appreciate its ability to take on common Dark- and Dragon-types such as Ting-Lu, Chien-Pao, Kingambit, Miraidon, and Koraidon. Iron Valiant also helps break past walls such as Clodsire, Corviknight, and Toxapex, which are roadblocks for its teammates such as Flutter Mane and Iron Bundle.
  • Miraidon is the best partner for Iron Valiant thanks to powering up Thunderbolt, boosting its Speed because of Quark Drive, and pivoting into Iron Valiant with U-turn. Similarly, wallbreakers such as Iron Bundle, Flutter Mane, and Chien-Pao appreciate Iron Valiant breaking Corviknight and Toxapex, and they can take on Skeledirge for Iron Valiant in return. Finally, Skeledirge uses Corviknight as setup fodder, and Great Tusk threatens Tera Fire Koraidon for Iron Valiant.

apply literally I said in the other set to this set: hyphenate Chien-Pao, make Shadow Ball explanation... Skeledirge, replace Miraidon's Hardon Engine mentions with Electric Terrain, try to make it more succinct and it's a 1/2

  • Choice Specs Iron Valiant is a potent offensive threat that is difficult to switch into for defensive teams thanks to its spammable STAB attacks and high Speed thanks to speed boost from Quark Drive under Electric Terrain.
  • Thunderbolt breaks past Corviknight and Toxapex, and is further boosted especially under Electric Terrain. Shadow Ball pressures Skeledirge and Scream Tail, but Psyshock is an option to beat Clodsire which would wall this set otherwise.
  • Tera Fairy is Iron Valiant's best Terastallization type, as it makes Iron Valiant's Moonblast incredibly difficult to switch into, threatening to OHKO Flutter Mane, while maintaining its Dragon immunity and resistance to Sucker Punch from Kingambit and Chien-Pao.
  • Iron Valiant fits on offensive teams that appreciate its ability to take on common pokemon such as Dark- and Dragon-types (AH) such as Ting-Lu, Chien-Pao, and Kingambit, as well as and Dragon types such as Miraidon and Koraidon. Iron Valiant also helps break past defensive walls pokemon such as Clodsire, Corviknight, and Toxapex, which are roadblocks for its may wall teammates such as Flutter Mane and Iron Bundle.
  • Miraidon is the best partner for Iron Valiant thanks to Hadron Engine powering up Thunderbolt, providing it with a speed boost boosting its Speed thanks to Quark Drive, under Electric Terrain, and pivoting into Iron Valiant. Similarly, wallbreakers such as Iron Bundle, Flutter Mane, and Chien-Pao appreciate Iron Valiant for breaking past Corviknight and Toxapex, and can take on Skeledirge for Iron Valiant instead. Finally, Great Tusk and Skeledirge are great partners for Iron Valiant by being able to take on Koraidon, which can threaten Iron Valiant. by setting up sun and terastallize into a Fire-type to take on Iron Valiant. Mention that Skeledirge can use Corviknight as setup fodder and doesn't rely on predicting its entry, and that Great Tusk threatens Tera Fire Koraidon. The content is good overall, I just summarized it.

@ above make sure your edits don't alter the meaning of the text, im seeing a bunch of good changes but in other places you're e.g. removing relevant examples that aren't mentioned elsewhere (presumably) for the sake of concision, which ofc is taking things too far, smth similar with quark drive vs electric terrain in the first bullet. again lmk if you have questions about my changes

implemented these changes, changed the "pivoting into Iron Valiant" into "pivoting in Iron Valiant with U-turn".
