[SET COMMENTS]
A fierce wallbreaker, Tyranitar plays an important role on Rock teams in beating defensive foes such as Corviknight, Slowbro, and Ferrothorn. Stone Edge is used for its high Base Power and effectiveness against Flying teams. It's also the safest move to use against Poison, Flying, and Electric teams, as their defensive cores cannot easily switch into it. Despite having less power, Crunch is more reliable than Stone Edge and can threaten many Ghost- and Psychic-type walls, such as Galarian Corsola and Slowbro, as well as Dragapult and Latios. Earthquake allows Tyranitar to hit Steel- and Electric-types such as Heatran and Tapu Koko, as well as Toxapex. In conjunction with Earthquake, Fire Punch pressures Steel-type teams and prevents Tapu Bulu, Zarude, and Ferrothorn from coming in on Tyranitar, gaining momentum with their setup or utility moves. The given EV spread allows Tyranitar to survive Choice Specs Tapu Lele's Moonblast while still outpacing Adamant Azumarill.

All of Tyranitar's teammates appreciate its ability to set sand. Shuckle can slow foes down with Sticky Web and chip them via Stealth Rock, both of which let Tyranitar break through teams more easily. Terrakion and Tyranitar form a deadly wallbreaking core together, with Terrakion dealing with foes such as Bisharp and Excadrill for Tyranitar, and Tyranitar handling Ghost-types and Psychic-types such as Galarian Corsola, Dragapult, and Slowbro. Nihilego is an excellent partner due to it taking on Corviknight and Urshifu-R, which beat Tyranitar. In return, Tyranitar is able to take care of Slowking and Galarian Slowking, as well as Steel-types such as Klefki and Aegislash, all of which wall Nihilego. Rhyperior can gang up on Steel- and Flying-types with Tyranitar and provide an Electric immunity. Barbaracle appreciates Tyranitar getting rid of foes such as Slowking, Slowbro, and Aegislash, which Barbaracle has trouble defeating. Coalossal is a decent partner for Tyranitar, as it can not only chip foes via Spikes, but also use Rapid Spin to clear entry hazards, which prevent Tyranitar from being as effective. Furthermore, it can burn foes like Scizor and Melmetal with Flame Body.

Tyranitar can viably run a set with Dragon Dance over Fire Punch, though Corviknight, Celesteela, and Skarmory can easily exploit this set. In addition, Tyranitar is a better wallbreaker than sweeper for Rock teams because it can pave the way for other sweepers like Barbaracle to sweep. It can also run a special set using Dark Pulse, Earth Power, Fire Blast, and Ice Beam to surprise foes such as Skarmory. However, this set isn't very good due to Tyranitar's mediocre Special Attack stat, as well as Nihilego taking care of Special special Tyranitar's targets, anyway.

A fierce wallbreaker, Tyranitar plays an imporatant important role on Rock due to its ability to force out foes such as Heatran and Ferrothorn. Despite having less power, Crunch is a more reliable STAB move than Stone Edge and can threaten many Ghost- and Psychic-types such as Victini (Probably prefer Blacephalon here, CB u-turn or really few people running Brick Break makes me prefer it as it can become a thread along with Gcorsola for terrakion), Dragapult, and Latios. Earthquake allows Tyranitar to hit Steel- and Electric-types such as Heatran and Tapu Koko. In conjunction with Earthquake, Fire Punch can also force many 50/50s against Steel teams lacking Air Balloon Heatran. Fire Punch also prevents Rillaboom Tapu Bulu (Just like before I prefer a lot more Bulu over here as damage output is same + they won't risk his wincon for anything and Rilla is only on Grass) , Ferrothorn, and Zarude from coming in on Tyranitar. The given EV spread allows Tyranitar to live Choice Specs Tapu Lele's Moonblast, while still outpacing Adamant Azumarill.

Paragraph 2:
All of Tyranitar's teammates appreciate it's ability to set Sandstorm. Shuckle is able to slow opponents down with Sticky Web and chip them via Stealth Rock, both of which Tyranitar appreciates. Terrakion and Tyranitar form a deadly wallbreaking core together, with Terrakion being able to deal with foes such as Bisharp and Excadrill for Tyranitar, and Tyranitar being able to deal with (would probably say Ghost/Grass-types such as Gcorsola/Dpult and Bulu) Grass-types such as Tapu Bulu while also preventing Swift Swim users such as Barraskewda and Kingdra from outpacing it Terrakion. Tyranitar also deals with Choice Scarf Latias and Latios, as well as Slowbro for Terrakion. Nihilego is an excellent teammate due to its ability to single-handedly take on Balance Water teams, something Tyranitar greatly appreciates. In return, Tyranitar is able to take care of Slowking and Galarian Slowking, as well as Steel-types such as Klefki and Aegislash. Rhyperior is a great partner decent teammate for Tyranitar, as it can gang up on Steel- and Flying-types with Tyranitar. Coalossal is a decent teammate for Tyranitar as it is not only able to chip opponents via Spikes, but it is also able to clear Sticky Web which prevent Tyranitar from being as effective.

A fierce wallbreaker, Tyranitar plays an important role on Rock due to its ability to force out foes such as Heatran (Heatran isnt really that much of a problem, being able to wallbreak/deal with Foes like Slowbro, Corv, Ferro are fine enough) and Ferrothorn. Despite having less power, Crunch is a more reliable STAB move than Stone Edge and can threaten many Ghost- and Psychic-types such as Blacephalon (Blace not much of an issue with Rock since Terrakion outspeeds, its more on targeting bulky ones like Slowbro, Galarian Corsola so that Terrakion can go brr later). Dragapult, and Latios. Earthquake allows Tyranitar to hit Steel- and Electric-types such as Heatran and Tapu Koko (Toxapex would be a nice mention). In conjunction with Earthquake, Fire Punch can also force many 50/50s against Steel teams lacking Air Balloon Heatran. Fire Punch also prevents Tapu Bulu, Ferrothorn, and Zarude from coming in on Tyranitar. The given EV spread allows Tyranitar to live Choice Specs Tapu Lele's Moonblast, while still outpacing Adamant Azumarill.
*If possible, add mention of why Stone Edge is used; its for midgrounding vs Rotom-W, Corvs [flying matchup]

All of Tyranitar's teammates appreciate it's ability to set Sandstorm. Shuckle is able to slow opponents down with Sticky Web and chip them via Stealth Rock, both of which Tyranitar appreciates. Terrakion and Tyranitar form a deadly wallbreaking core together, with Terrakion being able to deal with foes such as Bisharp and Excadrill for Tyranitar, and Tyranitar being able to deal with Ghost- and Grass-types such as Galarian Corsola, Dragapult, and Tapu Bulu while also preventing Swift Swim users such as Barraskewda and Kingdra from outpacing Terrakion (Note that ttar is still slower than these Pokemon, so maybe just setting sandstorm is enough). Tyranitar also deals with Choice Scarf Latias and Latios, as well as Slowbro for Terrakion. Nihilego is an excellent teammate due to its ability to single-handedly take on Balance Water teams, something Tyranitar greatly appreciates. (Iirc Nihilego is unfort walled by Slowking + Pex, gets revenged by CB Aqua Jet Ursh. Nihilego likes Corv getting softened up in the flying matchup though, or the defensive core of most types being weakened) In return, Tyranitar is able to take care of Slowking and Galarian Slowking, as well as Steel-types such as Klefki and Aegislash. Rhyperior is a great partner for Tyranitar, as it can gang up on Steel- and Flying-types with Tyranitar. (Also prevents eleki from going brr) Coalossal is a decent teammate for Tyranitar as it is not only able to chip opponents via Spikes, but it is also able to clear Sticky Web which prevent Tyranitar from being as effective. (it also burns the opponent)
*add Barbarcle, as it loves the wallbreaking thing

(Its not really that, its more of you kinda wanna wallbreak because there's better, faster sweepers Rock has vs mediocre speed ttar even at +1 with webs :() It can also run a special set using Dark Pulse, Earth Power, Fire Blast, and Ice Beam to surprise foes such as Skarmory (add more here since you mentioned Dpulse and Ice Beam too). However, this set isn't very good due to Tyranitar's mediocre Special Attack stat. (And there's nihi for Spattackers too)

A fierce wallbreaker, Tyranitar plays an important role on Rock due to its ability to force out foes (maybe force out isnt the best term for it, maybe beat or take care of would be better, as Rock teams really really wants these Pokemon gone) such as Corviknight, Slowbro, and Ferrothorn. Stone Edge is used for its high base power and effectiveness against Flying teams (its also the "safest" move vs types like Poison, Flying, Electric as their defensive core falters vs it). Despite having less power, Crunch is a more reliable STAB move than Stone Edge and can threaten many Ghost- and Psychic-types such as Galarian Corsola and Slowbro (The aforementioned pokemon are walls). Dragapult, and Latios. Earthquake allows Tyranitar to hit Steel- and Electric-types such as Heatran and Tapu Koko, as well as Toxapex. In conjunction with Earthquake, Fire Punch can also forces many 50/50s (50/50 is probably not a C&C term, if possible use predictions, or "puts steel teams in tight spot" or something like that) against Steel teams lacking Air Balloon Heatran. Fire Punch also prevents Tapu Bulu, Ferrothorn, and Zarude from coming in on Tyranitar. The given EV spread allows Tyranitar to live Choice Specs Tapu Lele's Moonblast, while still outpacing Adamant Azumarill.

(ttar breaks the bulky so Terrak sweeps)Tyranitar also deals with Choice Scarf Latias and Latios, as well as Slowbro for Terrakion. Nihilego is an excellent teammate due to its ability to take on Corviknight (and Urshifu-R too), something Tyranitar greatly appreciates. In return, Tyranitar is able to take care of Slowking and Galarian Slowking, as well as Steel-types such as Klefki and Aegislash. Rhyperior is a great partner for Tyranitar, as it can gang up on Steel- and Flying-types with Tyranitar. It also deterrs Regieleki from clicking Electric-type moves. Coalossal is a decent teammate for Tyranitar as it is not only able to chip opponents via Spikes, but it is also able to clear Sticky Web which prevent Tyranitar from being as effective. Furthermore, it can burn foes like Urshifu-R, Scizor, and Melmetal with Flame Body. Barbaracle is also a good teammate, as it appriciates Tyranitar getting rid of foes such as Slowking, Slowbro, and Aegislash. (Shell Smash Sweeper, move up to after Rhyperior)

Earthquake allows Tyranitar to hit Steel- and Electric-types such as Heatran and Tapu Koko, as well as Toxapex. In conjunction with Earthquake, Fire Punch also puts pressure on Steel-type teams lacking Air Balloon Heatran in an uncomfortable position. Fire Punch also prevents Tapu Bulu, Ferrothorn, and Zarude (put zarude before ferro) from coming in on Tyranitar and gaining momentum with their setup and utility respectively. The given EV spread allows Tyranitar to live Choice Specs Tapu Lele's Moonblast, while still outpacing Adamant Azumarill.

All of Tyranitar's teammates appreciate it's ability to set Sandstorm. Shuckle is able to slow opponents down with Sticky Web and chip them via Stealth Rock, both of which Tyranitar appreciates so it can break through teams easier.

Generally, it deals with bulkier threats such as the aformetnioned Galarian Corsola and Tapu Bulu so Terrakion can sweep. Tyranitar also deals with Choice Scarf Latias and Latios, as well as Slowbro for Terrakion. (just seems like too much for just terrakion, just say ttar deals with ghosts and psychics for terrakion and leave it at that) Nihilego is an excellent teammate due to its ability to take on Corviknight and Urshifu-R. something Tyranitar greatly appreciates (why?). In return, Tyranitar is able to take care of Slowking and Galarian Slowking, as well as Steel-types such as Klefki and Aegislash all of which wall Nihilego. Rhyperior is a great partner for Tyranitar, as it can gang up on Steel- and Flying-types with Tyranitar. It also and provide an Electric-type immunity deters Regieleki from clicking Electric-type moves. Barbaracle is also a good teammate, as it appriciates Tyranitar getting rid of foes such as Slowking, Slowbro, and Aegislash (again, why? be specific on why barb wants these things gone). Coalossal is a decent teammate for Tyranitar as it is not only able to chip opponents via Spikes, but it is also able to clear entry hazards via Rapid Spin Sticky Web which would otherwise prevent Tyranitar from being as effective. Furthermore, it can burn foes like Scizor, and Melmetal with Flame Body.

ill recheck after you implement
 
looks good, just remove the tapu bulu mention here:
Tyranitar being able to deal with Ghost- and Grass-types such as Galarian Corsola, Dragapult, and Tapu Bulu
ttar doesnt really "Deal" with it, if they hard into it on fire punch then sure but idk its a nuanced example, just replace grass-types with psychic and put slowbro instead of bulu, 3/3

(just a small thing but you use the word "teammate" a lot in this paragraph, I would maybe try to change it up a few times so it isnt as repetitive)

A fierce wallbreaker, Tyranitar plays an important role on Rock due to its ability to beat teams in beating defensive (I imagine "defensive" makes sense here? if you have a better replacement, go ahead) foes such as Corviknight, Slowbro, and Ferrothorn. Stone Edge is used for its high base power Base Power and effectiveness against Flying teams. It's also the safest move to use against Poison, Flying, and Electric teams, (AC) as their defensive cores cannot easily switch into it. While Despite having less power, Crunch is more reliable than Stone Edge and can threaten many Ghost- and Psychic-type walls, (AC) such as Galarian Corsola (RC) and Slowbro, as well as Dragapult (RC) and Latios. Earthquake allows Tyranitar to hit Steel- and Electric-types such as Heatran and Tapu Koko, as well as Toxapex. In conjunction with Earthquake, Fire Punch pressures on Steel-type teams and prevents Tapu Bulu, Zarude, and Ferrothorn from coming in on Tyranitar and Tyranitar, gaining momentum with their setup and utility moves respectively. or utility moves. The given EV spread allows Tyranitar to live survive Choice Specs Tapu Lele's Moonblast (RC) while still outpacing Adamant Azumarill.

All of Tyranitar's teammates appreciate its ability to set Sandstorm. Shuckle is able to slow opponents sand. Shuckle can slow foes down with Sticky Web and chip them via Stealth Rock, both of which Tyranitar appreciates so it can let Tyranitar break through teams easier. more easily. Terrakion and Tyranitar form a deadly wallbreaking core together, with Terrakion being able to deal dealing with foes such as Bisharp and Excadrill for Tyranitar, and Tyranitar being able to deal with handling Ghost-types and Psychic-types such as Galarian Corsola, Dragapult, (AC) and Slowbro. Nihilego is an excellent partner due to its ability to take it taking on Corviknight and Urshifu-R, something Tyranitar greatly appreciates because each of them beat it. which beat Tyranitar. In return, Tyranitar is able to take care of Slowking and Galarian Slowking, as well as Steel-types such as Klefki and Aegislash, all of which wall Nihilego. Rhyperior is a great partner for Tyranitar, as it can gang up on Steel- and Flying-types with Tyranitar and provide an Electric-type immunity. Barbaracle is also a good teammate, as it appreciates Tyranitar getting rid of foes such as Slowking, Slowbro, and Aegislash, (AC) which Barbaracle would otherwise have has trouble defeating. Coalossal is a decent partner for Tyranitar, (AC) as it is not only able to chip opponents can not only chip foes via Spikes, but it is also able to clear entry hazards via Rapid Spin which would otherwise also use Rapid Spin to clear entry hazards, which prevent Tyranitar from being as effective. (optionally you can add smth about ttar switching out and in a lot as a choice item user, if appropriate) Furthermore, it can burn foes like Scizor (RC) and Melmetal with Flame Body. (removed extra line break under)
