At least in singles, I'd go with Pressure. Intimidate is probably going to be fairly common seeing as how Gyarados rules the speculatory meta, but Mirror Armor would only do something if Gyarados switches into Corviknight, not the other way around. It's also immune to Sticky Web, so no cheese there. Other than that, stat drops aren't very common, unless Obstagoon or that octopus become super popular.Let's be realistic though, why wouldn't you run Mirror Armor on it anyway, Pressure would be okay for stalling I guess but that'd feel kind of a waste of the potential of the Pokemon.
Greedent has respectable physical bulk for an early game, Normal rodent. And those usually have good or absolutely good Hidden Abilities. I'm curious what it will get.
I can't put this in the little things you like about Pokemon thread because it contains spoiler material, but can we take a moment to appreciate how crazy and creative the Dragon type designs have been since Gen 6? Now there were obviously some cool dragons beforehand (Hydreigon is in my top 5 favorite Pokemon) and a few unconventional ones (Flygon, Kingdra), but ever since that generation in particular it feels like they've really stretched the criteria for being a dragon and I love it. Slime creatures, old mountain men, palm trees, and now Galar has been given us a spooky stealth bomber and a freaking apple pie drake. More of these kinds of dragons, please.

Dragon's been so original yup, altho I think this has been the case since it's origins. The last Pokémon that I truly see as a typical dragon is Salamence. Garchomp doesn't resemble a dragon at all, and yes, I know that different mythologies have depicted dragons in a lot of ways, but still, Garchomp is not what you think of when you have a dragon in mind. Nor are Palkia, Dialga, Hydreigon, Haxorus, Goodra or Kommo-o. Most of the dragons we see as dragons are because of the Pokémon franchise, because things like Necrozma look like an angel, if you show its design to someone who haven't played Pokémon it'll be difficult for that person to see a dragon.
But our boi Apple Dragon is so original.

I think Alolan Exeggutor is a prime example of breaking the dragon mold.
It's not a bad thing GF makes their dragons aren't that serious anymore :oEveryone saying they’ve broken the dragon mold but nobody asking why. There are plenty of other types to experiment with but now it seems we’ve just thrown rhyme and reason to the wind.
Am I the only one whose starter will be Rookidee? The others are just miserable.
It just boosts your HP and gives you a G-Max move as far as we know yetDo we know yet if gigantimax affects the other stats at all, or does it simply just give the new G-max moves?
