[OVERVIEW]
Often appearing on balance teams, Silvally-Water is a decent Defogger that is able to threaten common Stealth Rock setters such as Sandaconda and Regirock. It also possesses decent defensive utility and can easily pivot into its teammates with Parting Shot or U-turn. As a result of its weaknesses to Grass- and Electric-type moves, Silvally-Water is threatened by Pokemon such as Tsareena and Togedemaru. Silvally-Water also faces competition from Whimsicott and Charizard as an entry hazard remover. Silvally-Water can be worn down easily and struggles to consistently check foes such as Charizard. Furthermore, it is outclassed as a bulky Water-type by Pokemon such as Jellicent and Lanturn due to the former possessing recovery and the latter having an Electric immunity.

[SET COMMENTS]
Silvally-Water's teammates appreciate its ability to remove entry hazards and bring them in safely with Parting Shot or U-turn; its ability to lure foes such as Tsareena benefits Pokemon such as Magmortar, and it can also function as a slow pivot for frail partners such as Heavy-Duty Boots Archeops. Surf hits foes such as Sandaconda and Charizard super effectively. Ice Beam prevents foes such as offensive Whimsicott and Trevenant from switching into Silvally-Water. Thunderbolt can be used over Ice Beam, as it deters switch-ins from foes like Wishiwashi and Kabutops. Toxic is also an option to defeat bulky Water-types such as Jellicent and Lanturn. The EV spread makes Silvally-Water as bulky as possible while letting it outspeed foes such as Tsareena and Adamant Kabutops. Aromatisse is an extremely valuable teammate for Silvally-Water, as it is able to switch in comfortably on foes such Scrafty, which would otherwise use Silvally-Water as setup fodder, and provide Wish and cleric support. Silvally-Water appreciates Grass-type teammates such as Ferroseed, as they can switch into Electric-types such as Togedemaru and Lanturn for it. In return, Silvally-Water can defeat Fire-types such as Charizard and Centiskorch. Charizard is able to handle Grass-types such as Tangela and Gourgeist-S while benefitting from Silvally-Water's ability to deal with Rock-types such as Regirock.

[OVERVIEW]

Compressing Defog as well as a defensive pivot into one teamslot, Silvally-Water is able to provide a great deal of utility to its teammates. Its typing allows it to threaten hazard setters such as Regirock and Sandaconda with its splendid bulk Silvally-Water's bulk is limited due to the fact it has 0 reliable recovery options aside from Wish support, so saying it has splendid bulk is invalid imo. Silvally itself isn't a reliable long-term hazard remover versus these examples since it's A) worn down by hazards itself and B) isn't necessarily capable of easily switching in to Stone Edge/Body Press/Earthquake or Glare respectively. I'd just mention Silvally-Water's efforts in offensively threatening these Rockers, and then note how defensively, it is outclassed by Waters like Jellicent and Lanturn and other Defoggers like you did later, but perhaps find a way to make this more coherent. and excellent defensive typing. As a result of its weakness to Grass- and Electric-type moves, Silvally-Water is threatened by a plethora of Pokemon in the tier such as Tsareena and Togedemaru. Silvally-Water also faces competition as a hazard remover from Altaria and Charizard, as they are immune to Spikes and have reliable recovery in Roost. Silvally-Water can be worn down easily and thus can struggle to consistently check foes such as Combustkin Use a different example than Combusken, this mon isn't meta relevant. Perhaps mention Charizard > Combusken here.

evs: 252 HP / 120 Def / 136 Spe Change to 248 HP / 92 Def / 168 Spe so that way Silvally-Water outspeeds Jolly Tsareena so you can U-turn / Parting Shot / Ice Beam

Most of Silvally-Water's teammates appreciate its ability to remove the field of hazards allowing them to switch in safely. After clearing the field of hazards, Silvally-Water is able to bring in teammates such as Charizard on foes such as Alolan Sandslash via Parting Shot. Mention a different partner than Charizard, as this mon 100% of the time runs Heavy-Duty Boots so that way it isn't pressured by hazards in the first place. And Alolan Sandslash isn't going to switch into Silvally-Water in the first place, so please choose better examples. This also allows Silvally-Water to act as a slow pivot for frail teammates such as Heavy-Duty Boots Archeops, allowing them to wreak havoc on the opposing team. Surf is Silvally-Water's primary STAB move, allowing it to hit foes such as Sandaconda and Charizard super effectively. Ice Beam is an option, allowing Silvally to prevent foes such as Gorgeist-XL and Trevenant from switching into it. Thunderbolt can be used over Ice Beam, as it wards off switchins from foes like Poliwrath and Kabutops. Mention Toxic as an option as well, in order to cripple opposing defensive Waters like Jellicent and Lanturn. Silvally-Water's set makes it as bulky as possible while being able to outspeed foes such as Drifblim and I'd probably mention something more threatening to Silvally-Water > Drifblim here, such as Tsareena (refer to edited EV spread) Kabutops. also note that this spread only outspeeds Adamant Kabutops, not Jolly while minimizing damage taken from Foul Play. Silvally-Water appreciates Grass-type teammates such as Ferroseed as they can switch into Electric-types such as Togedemaru and Lanturn for it. In return, Silvally-Water can defeat Fire-types such as Charizard and Centiskorch in a 1v1 for Ferroseed. Silvally-Water also appreciates the presence of Charizard on its team, as Charizard is able to handle the many Grass-type Pokemon in the tier such as Ferroseed and Tsareena for it. Charizard also appriciartes Silvally-Water's ability to deal with Rock-type foes such as Regirock, as well as its ability to handle opposing Water-type foes such as Arctovish and Basculin Delete this statement how Silvally "handles" either of these offensive Waters since Silvally lacks recovery and doesn't want to take multiple hits from powerful Choice-locked breakers, even if they are resisted with Thunderbolt. Aromatisse is another valuble teammate for Silvally-Water, as it is able to threaten foes such Heliolisk that Silvally-Water would otherwise struggle against. It is also able to deal with bulky Dark-type foes such as Guzzlord and Scrafty, in addition to wish passing. Aromatisse doesn't really "threaten" Heliolisk, it's just able to repeatedly bounce damage off with WishTect + Lefties, I'd reword this to "switch in comfortably" or "defensively check" instead. Also, I'd prioritize Aromatisse being a partner due to the Wishpassing / Cleric support more than any other reason, as Silvally greatly appreciates any recovery it can get.


If you're going to mention Charizard so much as a partner for Silvally-Water, I'd also mention the fact that Charizard acts as a secondary form of Defog support so that way Silvally-Water can more actively switch into common Charizard switch-ins like Regirock and Gigalith and offensively threaten them without having to take Stealth Rock chip, rather than listing the Grass-types Charizard obviously threatens.

[OVERVIEW]

Compressing Defog as well as a defensive pivot into one teamslot, Silvally-Water is able to provide a great deal of utility to its teammates this sentence doesn't really mean much, i feel like it would be better to talk about being a defogger that can threaten rockers like regi and conda in one sentence and talk about its pivoting and defensive utility in another. Its typing allows it to offensively threaten Stealth Rock users such as Regirock and Sandaconda. As a result of its weakness to Grass- and Electric-type moves, Silvally-Water is threatened by a plethora of Pokemon in the tier such as Tsareena and Togedemaru. Silvally-Water also faces competition as a hazard remover from Altaria this thing barely gets used for good reason, there are a good few other mons you could mention and Charizard, as the latter is immune to Spikes and has reliable recovery in Roost. Silvally-Water can be worn down easily and thus can struggle to consistently check foes such as Charizard. Furthermore, it is outclassed as a bulky Water-type by Pokemon such as Jellicent and Lantern, as Jellicent posseses the recovery Silvally Lacks lowercase and Lanturn is immune to Electric-type moves due to its ability, Volt Absorb.

Most of Silvally-Water's teammates appreciate its ability to remove the field of hazards allowing them to switch in safely. After clearing the field of hazards, Silvally-Water is able to bring in teammates such as Toxicroak new example needed on foes such as Tsareena via Parting Shot or U-turn. This also allows Silvally-Water to act as a slow pivot for frail teammates such as Heavy-Duty Boots Archeops, allowing them to wreak havoc on the oppsing team. Surf is Silvally-Water's primary STAB move, allowing it to hit foes such as Sandaconda and Charizard super effectively. Ice Beam is an option, allowing Silvally to prevent foes such as Gorgeist-XL spelling, also gourg-xl gets no usage and is not a good example and Trevenant from switching into it. Thunderbolt can be used over Ice Beam, as it wards off switchins from foes like Poliwrath and Kabutops kabutops takes plenty from surf anyway, tbolt would only be for water types that actually resist water. regardless i would remove tbolt from the set entirely, toxic is better vs almost every common water except, idk, sub arctovish i guess?. Toxic is also an option, as it can defeat opposing bulky Water-types that would otherwise wall it such as Jellicent and Lantern. Silvally-Water's set makes it as bulky as possible while being able to outspeed foes such as Tsareena and Adamant Kabutops, while minimizing damage taken from Foul Play this detail is not needed. Aromatisse is an extremely valuble teammate for Silvally-Water, as it is able to switch in comfortably on foes such Heliolisk new example that Silvally-Water would otherwise struggle against. It is also able to deal with bulky Dark-type foes such as Guzzlord new example and Scrafty, in addition to wish passing as well as Clerc cleric, spelling and no capital support. Silvally-Water appreciates Grass-type teammates such as Ferroseed as they can switch into Electric-types such as Togedemaru and Lanturn for it. In return, Silvally-Water can defeat Fire-types such as Charizard and Centiskorch in a 1v1 for Ferroseed. Silvally-Water also appreciates the presence of Charizard on its team, as Charizard is able to handle the many Grass-type Pokemon in the tier such as Ferroseed and Tsareena reusing examples a bit too much here, there are other grasses you could mention for it. Charizard also appriciartes Silvally-Water's ability to deal with Rock-type foes such as Regirock. In turn, Silvally-Water appriciates Charizard's ability to act as a secondary Defogger, taking pressure off of Silvally-Water. no don't mention this pls, running double defog with watervally and charizard would be quite bad
