[Set comments]
Substitute Leech Seed Venusaur leverages her many good resistances to become difficult to take down, this set is best played by using your STAB Sludge Bomb to force out the Grass' who would otherwise be immune to your Leech Seed shenanigans and take that opptunity to substitute or leech seed the incoming Pokémon. Earth Power forces out, chips, or KOs Pokémon like Salazzle, Arcanine or Sandslash Alola who would aim to break your Substitute. Toxic and Knock Off can be ran to further speed up the killing process or provide utility, respectively.

80 Defense EVs and a positive Defense nature allow your Substitute to survive Bruxish’s Wave Crash and take minimal damage from any of Hisuian Decidueye’s moves. Your substitute always lives a choice scarf Florgess Moonblast. You also avoid a 2HKO from Tera Electric Pawmot’s Double Shock.

Tera Dark can be run to avoid Psychic moves, Prankster status, and the many Sucker Punches aiming to break your Substitute. Tera Ground provides a boost to Earth Power’s power while switching up your resistances. Water and Steel are also good Tera types that synergize well with Venusaur’s Role on most teams.

This set is best used on bulky or balance structures allowing her team to take advantage of her defensive profile and Venusaur to do the same with its teammates. Venusaur can be overwhelmed by the Pokémon it checks, especially if they are running Life Orb or a Choice item. Pairing it with another soft check allows both to handle a wider variety of threats for many more turns than they could alone. Friendship is magic!

Substitute Leech Seed Venusaur leverages her (The only pronoun allowed on analyses is 'it', change this and any other mentions of her)many good resistances to become difficult to take down, this set is best played by using your STAB Sludge Bomb to force out the Grass' who would otherwise be immune to your Leech Seed shenanigans and take that opptunity(opportunity) to substitute or leech seed the incoming Pokémon. Earth Power forces out, chips, or KOs Pokémon like Salazzle, Arcanine or Sandslash Alola who would aim to break your Substitute. Toxic and Knock Off can be ran to further speed up the killing process or provide utility, respectively.

80 Defense EVs and a positive Defense nature allow your Substitute to survive Bruxish’s Wave Crash and take minimal damage from any of Hisuian Decidueye’s moves.(The hecidueye point is kinda a given, remove) Your substitute always lives a choice scarf Florges'(forgot ' here)s Moonblast. You also avoid a 2HKO from Tera Electric Pawmot’s Double Shock.

Tera Dark can be run to avoid Psychic moves('avoid' is not the right word here), Prankster status, and the many Sucker Punches aiming to break your Substitute(idk if id click sucker punch on this mon behind a sub). Tera Ground provides a boost to Earth Power’s power while switching up your resistances.(list some mons this helps against) Water and Steel are also good Tera types that synergize well with Venusaur’s Role on most teams.(again, list some mons this helps against)
(Combine the above 3 paragraphs into one, its supposed to be 2 total)

This set is best used on bulky or balance structures allowing her team to take advantage of her defensive profile and Venusaur to do the same with its teammates.

Pairing it with another soft check (such as?)allows both to handle a wider variety of threats for many more turns than they could alone. Friendship is magic!(idk if one liners like these are allowed in analyses, id say remove)
(This is a little too short in general, add something about mons that benefit from Venusaur)(Also mention why people would choose Venu over similar mons like Amoongus)

Not gonna mark this QC yet, implement these and I'll recheck it. Still solid job so far. There is a lot of mis-formatting stuff, note that I added some spaces in the set (obv cant bold those). Also the second paragraph is a little short and vague.
