Chi-Yu is an incredibly strong special attacker, and because of its ability Beads of Ruin, it's able to support other special attacking teammates while still dealing a lot of damage. It matches up well against some common restricted Pokemon such as both Calyrex formes and Zamazenta-C and it can also pressure common Pokemon such as Rillaboom, Gholdengo, and Amoonguss with its STAB moves. Snarl keeps special attacking threats such as Calyrex-S and Terapagos in check and still does respectable spread damage, while Dark Pulse provides strong and consistent damage. Overheat is an instant burst of damage that allows Chi-Yu to OHKO even bulky threats like Rillaboom and Zamazenta-C while also getting around Wide Guard. Since it is very frail, Focus Sash helps Chi-Yu survive for longer, whereas Life Orb gives it a significant damage boost, allowing it to OHKO Flutter Mane with Overheat and 2HKO Miraidon with Dark Pulse. Tera Ghost allows it to avoid Fake Out and gain an immunity to otherwise threatening Fighting-type attacks from Koraidon and the Urshifu formes.

Chi-Yu pairs well with strong special attackers such as Flutter Mane and Terapagos, since both of them benefit a lot from Beads of Ruin. Chi-Yu struggles with its average Speed stat and appreciates speed control from Tornadus, since it allows Chi-Yu to outspeed threats such as Koraidon, Miraidon, Flutter Mane, and Calyrex-S and deal respectable amount of damage with Beads of Ruin-boosted Bleakwind Storm. Chi-Yu also has problems with Urshifu-R, since it can switch-in on both Heat Wave and Dark Pulse and OHKO Chi-Yu back with Surging Strikes. Amoonguss helps with that issue, by redirecting away Fighting- and Water-type attacks from Urshifu-R, letting Chi-Yu deal damage more consistently. Pelipper is a strong Chi-Yu answer, since it sets up rain and is able to protect teammates from Chi-Yu's attacks with Wide Guard. Incineroar and Assault Vest Raging Bolt can take hits from it easily, meaning that the former can pivot out with Parting Shot and the latter is able to use Snarl, do high damage to it, or take advantage of Beads of Ruin and attack its partner.

Chi-Yu is an incredibly strong Special attacker, and because of its ability Beads of Ruin, its able to support other Special attacking teammates by lowering the opponent's Special defense while still dealing a lot of damage The information here is fine but very repetitive, can you shorten this some way? I doubt you need to say Special 3 times for this to make sense. It matches up well into some common restricteds such as both Calyrex formes and Zamazenta Im going to contest this, Zama wins the 1v1 easily, 252 SpA Beads of Ruin Chi-Yu Heat Wave vs. 252 HP / 100 SpD Zamazenta-Crowned: 116-138 (58.2 - 69.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO, Like this does nothing and it 2hko's with Behemoth even if you T-Ghost. Anything else, or just dont mention restricteds and talk about supporting mons and non restricteds and it can also pressure common Grass-type Pokemon such as Rillaboom, Gholdengo and Amoonguss Why limit yourself just to Grass?. Dark Pulse deals consistent and strong damage, while Snarl can keep Special attacking threats such as Calyrex-S and Terapagos in check while doing respectable spread damage. Overheat is an instant burst of damage that allows it to OHKO even bulky threats like Rillaboom and Zamazenta while also getting around Wide Guard. Since it is very frail, Focus Sash helps Chi-Yu survive for longer, whereas Life Orb gives it a significant damage boost, allowing it to OHKO Flutter Mane with Overheat and 2HKO Miraidon with Dark Pulse. Tera Ghost allows it to avoid Fake Out and gain an immunity to otherwise threatning threatening Fighting-type attacks. This could 100% be cut down but im in a chill mood rn so it stays, second qc figure this out

Chi-Yu pairs well with strong special attackers Special Attackers such as Choice Specs Flutter Mane and Terapagos, since both of them benefit a lot which benefiting greatly from Beads of Ruin, Tornadus, which lets it outspeed major threats such as Calyrex-S or Flutter Mane while doing significant damage with Bleakwind Storm, and Amoonguss, since it redirects away Fighting and Water-type attacks that could otherwise be threatning Can you split these into 2 sentences? This feels very crowded. Chi-Yu struggles with Urshifu-R since it can switch-in on both Heat Wave and Dark Pulse and OHKO it back with Surging Strikes. Incineroar and Assault Vest Raging Bolt can take hits from it easily and slow Chi-Yu's momentum down greatly meaning that the former can pivot out with Parting Shot and the latter is able to Snarl, do high damage to it or take advantage of Beads of Ruin and attack its partner that will have lowered Special defense I dont think you need to say all this tbh, just resisting its attacks and slowing it down is enough. Chi-Yu is also outsped by many major threats such as Calyrex-S, Flutter Mane, Miraidon, Koraidon and Zamazenta, so it relies on speed control and redirection from its partners to be able to consistently get attacks off Woulden't this go in the first area with Tornadus?.

Chi-Yu is an incredibly strong Special attacker, and because of its ability Beads of Ruin, its able to support other Special attacking teammates (any notable examples? Like Terapagos) while still dealing a lot of damage. It matches up well into some common restricteds restricted Pokemon such as both Calyrex formes and Zamazenta Zamazenta-C and it can also pressure common Pokemon such as Rillaboom, Gholdengo and Amoonguss with its STAB moves. Dark Pulse deals consistent and strong damage, while Snarl can keep Special attacking threats such as Calyrex-S and Terapagos in check while doing respectable spread damage. Overheat is an instant burst of damage that allows it to OHKO even bulky threats like Rillaboom and Zamazenta Zamazenta-C (Rillaboom and Zamazenta-C are already taking huge damage from Lorb Heat Wave, I think you can mention some calcs like OHKO on calyrex-s or smth.) while also getting around Wide Guard. Since it is very frail, Focus Sash helps Chi-Yu survive for longer, whereas Life Orb gives it a significant damage boost, allowing it to OHKO Flutter Mane with Overheat and 2HKO Miraidon with Dark Pulse. Tera Ghost allows it to avoid Fake Out and gain an immunity to otherwise threatening Fighting-type attacks.

Chi-Yu pairs well with strong special attackers such as Flutter Mane and Terapagos, since both of them benefit a lot from Beads of Ruins (how do they benefit from Beads of Ruin). Chi-Yu struggles with its average Speed stat, and appreciates speed control from Tornadus, since it allows Chi-Yu to outspeed threats such as Koraidon, Miraidon, Flutter Mane, Calyrex-S and deal respectable amount of damage with Beads of Ruin boosted Bleakwind Storm. Amoonguss also helps with that issue, since it can redirect away threatening Fighting and Water-type attacks and let Chi-Yu be able to deal damage more consistently. Chi-Yu also has problems with Urshifu-R since it can switch-in on both Heat Wave and Dark Pulse and OHKO it back with Surging Strikes. Incineroar and Assault Vest Raging Bolt can take hits from it Chi-Yu easily, meaning that the former can pivot out with Parting Shot and the latter is able to Snarl, do high damage to it or take advantage of Beads of Ruin and attack its partner that will have lowered Special defense.
(Chi-Yu is a case of a Pokemon where it enables its special attacking partners like Terapagos and Flutter Mane like you mentioned, however drop a calc or two about how these Pokemon can pick up some OHKOs with Beads of Ruin, which emphasizes on how Chi-Yu takes these threats to outrageous levels.)
