Excuse me if this is already mentioned somewhere, but I searched this thread and came up with 0 results. I noticed this error in quite a few analyses recently - ''resists'' or ''resistances'' cannot be used to refer to a Pokemon which resist certain attacks. For example -

Incorrect - Bug-type resists such as Skarmory and Heatran can switch into Scizor easily.

Correct - Pokemon which resist Bug-type attacks, such as Skarmory and Heatran, can switch into Scizor easily.

Another inconsistency which I have seen in several on-site analyses is the format for writing ''four-moveslot syndrome.'' Personally, I think it should be written without the hyphen between ''moveslot'' and ''syndrome'', but I would like to see what the general consensus on this is.
