Hisuian Zoroark plays as a terrifying setup sweeper with its Nasty Plot set, as it has an amazing STAB combination and can bait Pokemon with Illusion. It can break through Heatran, Ferrothorn, Ting-Lu, and Kingambit with Focus Blast, which in tandem with Tera Fighting allows Hisuian Zoroark to strengthen its Focus Blast to break the aforementioned threats more easily while also baiting Sucker Punch from Kingambit. Setup sweepers and wallbreakers like Mega Scizor and Iron Valiant appreciate Hisuian Zoroark baiting Skeledirge and Gholdengo. In return, Mega Scizor deals with Weavile and Kartana while Iron Valiant threatens Ting-Lu and Kingambit. Great Tusk is also a valuable teammate, as it deals with threats like Kingambit and Mega Lopunny while also providing general utility. While Hisuian Zoroark is powerful, it is vulernable to revenge killers such as Mega Lopunny, Dragapult, and Tapu Koko. As such, Pokemon like Zapdos, Slowbro, Ferrothorn, Kingambit and Great Tusk are good partners. Checks to revenge killers like Choice Scarf Tapu Lele and Dragapult are recommend; these include Mega Scizor, Gholdengo, Ting-Lu, Kingambit and Heatran.

before we move further with checks, we'd like to see the following fixed:

• there are odd bits of wording from the start and a few sentences afterwards:

While having an amazing STAB move, Zoroark-Hisui can break through Steel types, such as Heatran and Ferrothorn. Another great coverage move to have would be Flamethrower, this will be a way to check Pokemon that are neutral to Fighting, like Corviknight, Scizor-Mega and Skarmory.

• flamethrower isn't slashed in the set, yet it is still mentioned. this should be removed.

~~~

• you didn't completely fix the set (normal stab missing, this should be slashed somewhere with trick or uturn, or uturn can be removed altogether for normal stab)
• max max ev spreads aren't explained, those are pretty obvious in what they do

Kingambit benefits from Zoroark-H's presence because it can break Steel Types for it, and is able to beat Non-Choice Scarf Tapu Lele, while also being able to switch into all of the Fighting Pokemon from the tier, aside Lopunny-Mega.

• h-zoro isn't the type of mon to want to switch in recklessly, lest it break illusion (the fightings also beat it, i.e. tusk ground stab and urshifu +2 ajet or neutral surging strikes does big numbers); this is something that should be focused on a bit more in the analysis, as illusion is what gives you more chances to break through baiting mons.
• the teammates section is a bit barren and should include mons that beat pursuit trappers, and gastro isnt a lopunny switch in

tag a qc member once the changes are made!

Zoroark-Hisui plays as a terrifying setup sweeper with it's Nasty Plot set, as it can tear through teams easily with its primary STAB moves Shadow Ball and Hyper Voice. just shorten this to say stab combination and weave in a mention of illusion letting it bait mons Along with this, Zoroark-Hisui has a solid offensive typing, which can help against a decent amount in the tier. filler While having amazing STAB moves, Zoroark-Hisui can break through Steel types, such as Heatran and Ferrothorn with it's Fighting coverage being Focus Blast. Tera Fighting allows Zoroark-H to strengthen it's Focus Blast to break Steel Types more easily, while also baiting Pursuits and Knock Offs from Weavile and Kingambit. just mention being given a sucker punch resist here against kingambit Setup sweepers and wallbreakers like Mega Scizor and Iron Valiant appreciate Zoroark-H baiting Skeledirge and Gholdengo. Another good teammate would be Great Tusk because it can tank threatening moves like Pursuit and being able to beat the Pursuit trappers. be specific in what pursuit trappers because you dont beat weav without being forced to tera While Zoroark-H is powerful, it does have some vuneralbilites such as Lopunny-Mega. A good way to deal with Lopunny-Mega is Zapdos because it fears Zapdos' ability Static, Slowbro and Corviknight also help as a Lopunny-Mega switch in as they can easily tank its powerful attacks. you need to shorten this, it can sound something like "Checks to Mega Lopunny such as x, y, and z are useful..." and go on from there. its always "Mega [Pokemon]" btw. Another threat for Zoroark-H are priority moves, such as Sucker Punch from Kingambit and Aqua Jet from Urshifu-Rapid-Strike. Choice Scarf Tapu Lele will be able to block these priority moves with its ability Psychic Terrain while also being able to check these threats. mention that lele appreciates steels being taken out
