With Good as Gold, Zacian-C is a threatening offensive support Pokemon that limits the recovery of foes reliant on Strength Sap. Good as Gold also provides a valuable immunity to Glare and Parting Shot, allowing Zacian-C to freely sit in front of Prankster users like Dondozo. Salt Cure pressures common switch-ins like Moltres, Arceus formes, Dondozo, Groudon, Eternatus, and opposing Zacian-C with residual chip damage that helps force early recovery Knock Off removes items like Covert Cloak and Heavy-Duty Boots, the former of which largely invalidates Salt Cure; alternatively, Substitute allows Zacian-C to freely set up on Prankster Pokemon like Dondozo and Giratina. Covert Cloak can block status from moves like Scald and Nuzzle, which would otherwise bypass Good as Gold, and it helps Zacian-C beat most Imposter users one-on-one. Bulky offense and balance teams appreciate this variant of Zacian-C the most for its ability to wear down walls and keep them at low HP. Ceaseless Edge users like Arceus formes and RegenVest Ting-Lu can set up Spikes, and they benefit from Zacian-C's ability to block Mortal Spin. Choice Band users like Slaking, Ursaluna, Groudon, and Arceus-Fire can take advantage of Zacian-C's support to either wallbreak or clean weakened teams. Imposter-proof Zacian-C with Fur Coat Pokemon with Recover and Covert Cloak like Dondozo and Groudon.

With Good as Gold, Zacian-Crowned is a threatening offensive support Pokemon that limits the recovery of teams foes reliant on Strength Sap. Good as Gold also means that Zacian-Crowned walls most Prankster Pokemon like Dondozo provides a valuable immunity to Glare and Parting Shot, allowing Zacian-C to freely sit in front of common Prankster users like Dondozo. Salt Cure pressures common switch-ins like Moltres, Arceus formes, Dondozo, Groudon, Eternatus, Corviknight, or and opposing Zacian-Crowned with residual chip damage that helps force early recovery. Zacian can set up Substitute on Pokemon with Prankster while you need to have it slashed to mention it, and in this case sentence structure it'd need to be slashed with knock Knock Off removes items like Covert Cloak for Salt Cure ruination here. Covert Cloak can block Sstatus from moves like Scald or Nuzzle, which would otherwise bypass Good as Gold. Bulky offense or balance teams appreciate this variant of Zacian-C the most for its ability to wear down walls and keep them at low HP. Regenerator Assault Vest Ting Lu or Ceaseless Edge Arceus Ceaseless Edge users like Arceus or RegenVest Ting-Lu can set up Spikes while benefiting from Zacian-C's ability to block Mortal Spin. Choice Banded Pokemon Band users like Slaking, Ursaluna, Groudon, or and Arceus-Fire can take advantage of Zacian-C's support to either break or clean up. Fur Coat Moltres or Ice Scales Chansey are assuming this still needs to be finished. finish the sentence on defensive teammates, then have one more on improofing.

also some notes for writing:
- forme names need consistency. basically everything other than arceus and silvally just has one letter to denote the forme (eg. Zacian-C, not Zacian-Crowned).
- RegenVest is an actual term, no need to specify regen + AV.
- when listing multiple options ("Choice Band users like Slaking, Ursaluna, ..."), use and instead of or most of the time. use "or" if they're mutually exclusive, which generally isn't common.
- if something is an option on the set, then unless it's blindingly obvious what it does (eg. main STAB move or recovery option), it needs to be mentioned. don't have set options that the paragraph doesn't mention, and try to avoid paragraph mentions without being slashed (unless they're really fringe options - here, sub is not, so needs a set mention).
- just copy-paste the analysis template from the OP on reservations thread to avoid having to correct caps / adding in credits

Good as Gold also provides a valuable immunity to Glare and Parting Shot, allowing Zacian-C to freely sit in front of common gold sort of bullies every viable prankster Prankster users like Dondozo.

Zacian can set up Substitute on Pokemon with Prankster while Knock Off removes items like Covert Cloak and Heavy-Duty Boots, the former of which largely invalidates for Salt Cure; "knock removes items like cloak for salt cure" doesn't really make sense given you've said "items like" and then referred only to one item and its impact. alternatively, Substitute allows Zacian-C to set freely setup on Prankster Pokemon with Prankster like Dondozo and Giratina. Covert Cloak can block Sstatus from moves like Scald or and Nuzzle, which would otherwise bypass Good as Gold, and it helps Zacian-C beat most Imposter users one-on-one.
