[SET COMMENTS]
Scream Tail is a good offensive Pokemon that takes advantage of Boomburst's high Base Power when combined with Pixilate to act as an entry hazard setter or a late-game setup sweeper. With its fantastic defenses, good defensive typing, and great Speed tier, which lets it outspeed the Ogerpon formes, Latios, and Waking Wake, it can threaten most of the tier, notably entry hazard removers like Great Tusk and Mandibuzz and common offensive threats such as Dragonite, Iron Hands, Galarian Zapdos, and Roaring Moon. Stealth Rock takes advantage of the switches that Scream Tail forces against Pokemon like Great Tusk, chipping down walls for itself and its teammates to break through them, while Calm Mind provides it with opportunities to sweep late-game once Pokemon like Iron Moth and Heatran have been removed. Wish can help Scream Tail and its teammates like Great Tusk and Iron Hands that lack reliable recovery options restore HP. Protect lets Scream Tail scout out Choice-locked foes like Azelf, Deoxys-S, and Roaring Moon and recover HP safely with Leftovers or Wish. Scream Tail has a hard time breaking through stout specially defensive Pokemon like Swampert, Meloetta, and Manaphy without Calm Mind, making it appreciate offensive partners like Hisuian Electrode, Roaring Moon, and Iron Boulder. Scream Tail is very susceptible to being revenge killed by faster Pokemon like Iron Boulder and Barraskewda, which makes it appreciate having teammates that can offer it a defensive backbone like Fluffy Corviknight and Skarmory. Scream Tail can also appreciate Knock Off users like Roaring Moon and Empoleon, which can remove items like Assault Vest and Heavy-Duty Boots from Manaphy and Zapdos respectively. Spikes setters like Skarmory and Deoxys-D have great synergy with Scream Tail, spreading entry hazards with it, which can help break it through RegenVest users like Swampert and Manaphy.

Scream Tail is a good offensive Pokemon that takes advantage of Boomburst's high natural power when combined with Pixilate to act as a entry hazard setter and late-game setup sweeper. Its fantastic defenses and above-average Speed also let it threaten most of the tiers entry hazard removers like Great Tusk and Mandibuzz and common offensive threats Pokemon such as Dragonite, Iron Hands, Galarian Zapdos, and Roaring Moon. Stealth Rock takes advantage of the switches that Scream Tail forces against Pokemon like Great Tusk, while Calm Mind provides it with opportunities to sweep late-game once RegenVesters like Swampert, Meloetta, and Manaphy have been removed (This isn't accurate. CM Pixieburst Scream Tail 1v1s all three of these Pokemon; it doesn't require their removal). Protect lets Scream Tail scout out Choice-locked foes like Azelf, Deoxys-S and Roaring Moon, and recover HP safely thanks to Leftovers or Wish. Scream Tail has a hard time breaking through stout defensive Pokemon like the aforementioned Swampert, Meloetta, and Manaphy without Calm Mind, making it appreciate offensive partners like Chien-Pao, Roaring Moon, and Iron Boulder. Scream Tail is very susceptible to being revenge killed by pirority users and fast Pokemon like Dragonite and Chien-Pao (This just...isn't true either? Neither of these guys is revenge killing Scream Tail without a lot of chip; even CB Dnite needs like 30% chip to KO), which can make it appreciate having defensive teammates that can offer a backbone to it like Corviknight and Skarmory.

I would also mention the significance of 353 Speed somewhere : it gets the jump on Latios and Ogerpon, for example.

QC 2/2

Notes for Orangex

Good work overall with the Stealth Rock mention as well as the last suggestions with Knock Off & Spikes support. Important to note though that we still want to have some physical wallbreakers as examples that threaten special walls, due to the fact that it forces the opponent to respond by switching out, forcing the switch-in to take hazard damage as well as giving said wallbreakers opportunity to attack. Great work otherwise :)
