On the other hand, the 252 Speed EVs allow Cyclohm to outspeed Adamant Lucario, and let Cyclohm speed tie with max Speed Mamoswine. The rest of the EVs go into Special Attack, which, though not receiving the heavy investment given to HP and Speed, is still enough to deal plenty of damage. Draco Meteor, Thunderbolt, and Hydro Pump provide Cyclohm with excellent neutral coverage, allowing Cyclohm to keep itself healthy by packing Slack Off as well.

Insert a semicolon or a period between "up" and "Surf."

Using Discharge in combination with Static can result in paralyzing your opponent fairly often; this can be useful when used with hard hitters such as Mamoswine or Metagoss, which frequently suffer from their lack of Speed. Additionally, Cyclohm can quickly wear down opposing Pokemon with its attacks, making it easier for the hard hitters to sweep.

Insert a semicolon between "often" and "this."

Even Steel-types must be wary of an attack coming their way.

Omit "being" between "options" and "able."
Just some small grammar issues. Keep up the good work.
