[SET COMMENTS]
Iron Crown provides Steel teams breathing room against Fighting matchups, threatening intimidating foes such as Okidogi, Great Tusk, and Urshifu-R. Tachyon Cutter takes out threats like Focus Sash Breloom and Mimikyu, which normally don't get OHKOed. Volt Switch makes Iron Crown a fast and offensive pivot, allowing it to pivot out of foes such as Gholdengo and Alolan Muk, which otherwise threaten a ton of damage. Volt Switch can also heavily dent Flying and Water teams, damaging foes like Pelipper and Skarmory. Psychic allows Iron Crown to handle Fighting-type Pokemon like Urshifu-R, Iron Hands, and Great Tusk. Focus Blast breaks through Ursaluna, Hisuian Goodra, Empoleon, and Heatran, which are hard to deal with for Steel teams.

Corviknight and Skarmory provide Iron Crown with a keen immunity to Ground-type moves. Corviknight removes entry hazards and offers a slow pivot through U-turn, whereas Skarmory sets hazards and phazes setup sweepers such as Swords Dance Sneasler and Dragon Dance Dragonite. Archaludon handles physical attackers such as Gouging Fire and Ogerpon-H and exerts pressure on Dark-type foes such as Meowscarada and Bisharp, which threaten Iron Crown. Archaludon also spreads Thunder Wave to slow down fast foes like Tornadus-T and Greninja and sets Stealth Rock. Heatran provides an immunity to Fire-type moves from Ninetales and Volcarona while also setting Stealth Rock. Gholdengo, due to Good as Gold, prevents foes such as Blissey and Sableye from slowing down Iron Crown through Thunder Wave and also provides a Fighting immunity. Hisuian Goodra, thanks to its sheer special bulk, provides a safe switch-in against strong special attacks from threats like Greninja and Moltres. Iron Treads removes hazards and threatens Ground-types Pokemon such as Garchomp, Landorus-I, and Gliscor. With the help of priority in Sucker Punch, Bisharp shoves off Ghost-types such as Flutter Mane and Dragapult. In return, Iron Crown deals with Toxapex, Okidogi, and Great Tusk.

hi meow,
this isnt a QC stamp yet, just pointing out a few stuff
Iron Crown is a hidden gem in Steel’s arsenal of sweepers. Blessed with amazing Spa stat and respectable Speed stat, Iron Crown is a perfect candidate for Choice Specs allowing it to boost it’s already high Special Attack.
The first sentence in the analysis is important since it tries to summarize why the mon is used. For instance, imagine selling a thing or a restaurant. Would "The best ever phone" be appealing to you? Or would you rather have "This phone has 16GB RAM with a Snapdragon chip, making it 30% faster compared to last year's model"? You don't need raw numbers, but knowing which problematic mons it deals with/if pivoting is ever useful for steel would be nice.

Tachyon Cutter dismantles opposing foes such as Hattrene, Kyurem and Bulk Up Great Tusk, while also knocking out enemies like Mimikyu, Focus Sash Glimmora and Ogerpon-C which normally dont get OHKOed.
Hatt and Kyurem arent really threats to Steel teams, Focus Sash Glimm is a rarity and Oger-C...is faster, and likely carries Knock off. Since this is stab tho, you dont really need to mention it beats (weak to steel), since the rest of the team most likely does. However, mentioning mimikyu is nice, and should be retained imo.

Volt Switch provides a fast and offensive pivot against threats such as Non Scarf Gholdengo and Ceruledge. It can also be used to heavily dent Flying and Water teams, damaging foes for e.g Pelipper and Skarmory.
For e.g. isnt allowed. Just use "like"
its also kinda weird to mention nonscarf ghold/cerul. What did they do anyway. Some context is missing, did they swap into Iron Crown because they check all its other moves or something else?

. Archaludon is another amazing ally which handles physical attackers such as Gouging Fire and Gliscor and starts exerting pressure on Dark-type foes such as Meowscarada and Bisharp who threaten Iron Crown. Along those it also provides utility by spreading T Wave and setting up Stealth Rock.
As mentioned, since analyses arent really that casual, "T Wave" should be spelled outright

Gholdengo due to Good as Gold turns off foes such as Blissey and Sableye chance to slow down Iron Crown through T Wave and also serves as an immunity to Fighting moves. Hisuian Goodra thanks to its sheer Special Bulk provides a safe switch from strong special attacks from foes like Surf from Greninja and Flamethrower from Moltres in return hitting them with Thunderbolt
Dont need to mention move names.

Scizor is another ally which reliably outputs damage to faster foes such as Iron Boulder, Meowscarada and Gallade with the help of Technician boosted Bullet Punch and can set up of forced switch such as Alolan Ninetales and Flutter Mane.
Weird phrasing. Also this doesnt really say how it helps Crown anyway.

Please ping meow after you read over this and implemented these changes. Thanks AhmedxWaleed

Iron Crown provides Steel breathing room against the Fighting Matchup threatening intimidating foes such as Okidogi, Great Tusk and Urshifu while also providing a pivot from threats which is appreciated by Steel thanks to multiple Steel-types having different immunities resulting in safe switch-ins. Tachyon Cutter cleans foes weak to it and also hits hard on non resisting opposing foes such as Brambleghast and Bulk Up Great Tusk, while also knocking out enemies like Mimikyu which normally dont get OHKOed (just mention how it breaks sash and mimikyu’. Volt Switch provides a fast and offensive pivot allowing it show infront of foes such as Gholdengo, Ceruledge and Alolan Muk which otherwise threaten a ton of damage (ngl I dont get what you mean, did you mean pivot out of swap ins? Dont mention cerul here too, it will not come on crown). It can also be used to heavily dent Flying and Water teams, damaging foes like Pelipper and Skarmory. Psychic allows Iron Crown to handle Fighting-type foes for example Urshifu-R, Sneasler and Great Tusk which are often problematic for Steel teams. Focus Blast breaks through walls such as Ursaluna, Hisuian Goodra and Heatran which are hard to deal for Steel teams (ursa isnt really a wall, empoleon feels like a better mention as its a special wall that would shield pex for instance).

Corviknight and Skarmory provide Iron Crown with a keen immunity to Ground moves while also removing the hazards and offering a slow pivot thorugh U-turn by the former and setting up hazards and forcing setup foes to switch using Whirlwind by the latter. Archaludon is another amazing ally which handles physical attackers such as Gouging Fire and Gliscor (archa doesnt beat giscor, oger might be better here) and starts exerting pressure on Dark-type foes such as Meowscarada and Bisharp who threaten Iron Crown. Along those it also provides utility by spreading Thunder Wave and setting up Stealth Rock. Heatran serves as an immunity to Fire moves from Ceruledge (use a diff mon, cerul carries CC)?and Volcarona while also setting up Stealth Rocks on the opposing side. Bisharp with the help of priority in Sucker Punch and ability to set up in Swords Dance shoves off Ghost-types such as Flutter Mane and Dragapult while also punishing any attempts to set Sticky Web from Araquinad which activates Defiant immediately turning it into a powerhouse (not sure why Araq is even mentioned in the first place, I think just keeping it to fman a pult is fine, then highlight how crown weakens bish checks like Toxapex or Gliscor). Gholdengo due to Good as Gold turns off foes such as Blissey and Sableye chance to slow down Iron Crown through Thunder Wave and also serves as an immunity to Fighting moves. Hisuian Goodra thanks to its sheer Special Bulk provides a safe switch from strong special attacks from foes like Greninja and Moltres. Iron Treads removes hazards from the field while also threatening Ground-types foes such as Garchomp, Landorus-I and Gliscor.(rearrange, put Irn Treads and Ghold earlier, before bisharp)
The grammar is abit off, but the content should be kinda ok

hey
- Introduction sentence, Urshifu-R not just Urshifu.

- Tachyon Cutter sentence as neko mentioned in her QC, just talk about it breaking sash while OHKOing Mimikyu. so "hits hard and cleans up foes weak to it" is not worth it / fluff. can just say Tachyon Cutter takes out foes like Focus Sash Breloom and Mimikyu which normally dont get OHKOed.
"Psychic allows Iron Crown to handle Fighting-type foes for example Urshifu-R, Sneasler and Great Tusk which are often problematic for Steel teams."
- Lets take off Sneasler, Band has a good chance to OHKO us with CC, we are never in a win win situation with sneasler, Scarf sneasler variant can crit us with cc which has a good roll to OHKO, Pivot out into AV Gallade comfortably, or even if this the right play, just switcheroo us and now our wallbreaking is cooked. Put Iron Hands instead.

Second Paragraph

"Corviknight and Skarmory provide Iron Crown with a keen immunity to Ground moves while also removing the hazards and offering a slow pivot thorugh U-turn by the former and setting up hazards and forcing setup foes to switch using Whirlwind by the latter."

- i would break this into two sentences. Corviknight and Skarmory provide Iron Crown with a keen immunity to Ground moves. Then talk about what corvi and skarm do afterwards. So like Corvi removes hazards + slow pivot while Skarmory sets hazards and phases out setup sweepers like [provide examples] via Whirlwind.

"Archaludon is another amazing ally which handles physical attackers such as Gouging Fire and Hoopa-U and starts exerting pressure on Dark-type foes such as Meowscarada and Bisharp who threaten Iron Crown. Along those it also provides utility by spreading Thunder Wave and setting up Stealth Rock."

- lets remove Hoopa-U and add in firepon in that slot. What mons are we targeting with Thunder Wave which allows Iron Crown to outspeed and take out.

- Back space on the Gholdengo sentence, to connect the paragraph.

At +2 Bisharp with the help of priority in Sucker Punch and ability to set up in Swords Dance shoves off Ghost-types such as Flutter Mane and Dragapult. In return, Iron Crown deals with Toxapex, Okidogi, and Great Tusk for Bisharp.

Will take a look after implements
