This is my first time writing one of these. How does this look?

[Team Options]
<p>As previously mentioned, Kitsunoh is quite good at wearing down its counters. It is therefore worth using other Pokemon on your team that have similar counters. This mainly consists of offensive Steel-types. Metagross and Scizor are good examples: Pokemon like Arghonaut and Swampert can only stand in their way if they are at good health. Magnezone can be used on your team to take out Skarmory, Forretress and Bronzong. If you use Magnezone for this purpose, Hidden Power Grass could be very useful for surprising Swampert. You may need Knock Off support for dealing with Shed Shells. A good Knock Off user is Fidgit (who can also set up hazards). Kitsunoh itself learns Knock Off, but using it will cost you some type coverage. </p>
<p>Defensively, Kitsunoh needs to watch for faster users of Fire and Ground moves. This means Gyarados and Salamence are both good choices to pair with Kitsunoh, especially because many Pokemon will need a Choice Scarf in order to outspeed it. Gyarados and Salamence, meanwhile, can set up with Dragon Dance. Surprisingly, Flygon can also be used for this purpose with U-turn, serving as a sort of "double scout" strategy. Flygon's immunity to Electric moves is also of some assistance here, though unfortunately, Flygon doesn't resist Water (unlike Salamence and Gyarados). Latias and Stratagem with Levitate resist Fire and are immune to Ground and can set up Calm Minds. Arghonaut, Swampert and Hippowdon are bulkier Pokemon that can also switch into Fire and Ground moves and are worth noting because they can easily switch (or U-turn) into Tyranitar if you haven't got Superpower. Due to a lack of recovery and Kitsunoh's frequent switching, Wish support can improve Kitsunoh's performance considerably. Consider using Blissey or Vaporeon. </p>
<p>Due to Kitsunoh's habit of forcing switches, entry hazards are highly recommended when using it. Stealth Rock in particular should be set up as early in the battle as possible. Spikes, Toxic Spikes, and Sandstorm are also worth consideration. Pokemon like Fidgit, Forretress, and Hippowdon are useful for this. </p>
