[SET COMMENTS]
Pixilate Scream Tail uses its excellent bulk and Speed to set up Calm Minds while the power of Pixilate Boomburst makes up for its lackluster Special Attack stat. Wish and Protect provides Scream Tail with longevity and excellent defensive utility to a team, allowing it to help check threats like Galarian Zapdos and Garchomp, as well as scouting a Choiced attackers. It can also opt to beat more of its checks with coverage, Psychic 2HKOes Iron Moth and Toxapex at +1 and Focus Blast OHKOes Kingambit and 2HKOes non-RegenVest Iron Treads at +1. Scream Tail struggles to break through common Fire-types like Magic Guard Heatran, Hisuian Arcanine, and Iron Moth without coverage and appreciates teammates like Goodra, Primordial Sea Zapdos, and Well-Baked Body Iron Treads switching into these threats. The latter two can also pivot Scream Tail in on their switchins like Garchomp and Corviknight. Scream Tail also struggles against Unaware Pokemon like Cresselia and Scream Tail, as such, teammates like Dragon Tail Hisuian Goodra, Toxapex, and Alolan Muk are appreciated to force them to switch out.
