[SET COMMENTS]
With four attacks, Zamazenta wields an array of colorful coverage alongside the tier's highest unboosted Speed stat, threatening a majority of the metagame. Its natural bulk and Dauntless Shield give it opportunities to wallbreak via its prowess in offensively checking Mega Lopunny, Hisuian Samurott, and Ogerpon-W. Stone Edge pairs fantastically with Zamazenta's STAB, nailing Volcarona, Zapdos, Moltres, and Tornadus-T while avoiding adverse contact effects from the former three. Ice Fang is Zamazenta's only option to break through Gliscor and Landorus-T and its strongest attack against Dragonite. Heavy Slam is the preferred last coverage move to hit Clefable and render Tapu Lele and Iron Valiant incapable of soft checking Zamazenta, while Crunch threatens Psychic-types in Galarian Slowking, Slowbro, and Mega Latias. Wild Charge is Zamazenta's strongest attack against Toxapex but deals pitiful damage regardless without a Choice Band and can still be easily pivoted against even with the boost. Heavy-Duty Boots increase Zamazenta's longevity, allowing it to switch in and threaten opposing teams more often, whereas Choice Band provides more immediate power, albeit at the cost of being incredibly prediction-reliant to break through most teams carrying multiple Fighting-resistant foes. Rockium Z is a niche alternative that reduces difficulties in KOing Zapdos by minimizing the need for prior chip damage mitigating and Stone Edge's meager accuracy. It also helps in breaking through Fighting-resistant Pokemon such as Clefable and Galarian Slowking without the correct coverage move once properly chipped. Tera Fighting is preferred to boost Close Combat's power against neutral targets such as Ogerpon-W and Alomomola, with chances to OHKO and 2HKO them, respectively, without Choice Band and muscle through checks such as Tornadus-T. Alternatively, Tera Steel flips the tables against Choice Scarf Tapu Lele's revenge killing attempts and secures the KO on Clefable after minimal chip. Zamazenta can fit on more defensive teams as speed control that forces out offensive terrors such as Ogerpon-W to supplement a defensive core, or it can be used on offensive teams supported by other wallbreakers while helping check threats to such teams such as Mega Lopunny with its natural bulk and Dauntless Shield. Regardless, its best support remains Future Sight from Tapu Lele, Galarian Slowking, or Slowbro, as Zamazenta is most often handled by switching between Pokemon that resist its moves and physically bulky pivots such as Galarian Slowking, Landorus-T, and Alomomola or stopped in its tracks by Toxapex. Future Sight punishes these situations by dealing massive damage, particularly against Toxapex. Similarly, Pursuit support from Mega Tyranitar and Weavile weakens or removes pivots such as Galarian Slowking, Mega Latias, and Zapdos.

With four attacks, Zamazenta wields an array of colorful coverage alongside an incredible speed tier to threaten a majority of the metagame u could change this to particularly being the single fastest unboosted speed tier in the meta. Its natural bulk and Dauntless Shield gives it opportunities to wallbreak via its prowess in offensively checking Mega Lopunny, Samurott-Hisui, and Ogerpon-Wellspring. Stone Edge pairs fantastically with Zamazenta's STAB, nailing Volcarona, Zapdos, Moltres, and Tornadus-T while avoiding contact damage effects from the former three as well as pushing other checks such as Landorus-T and Clefable into KO range without being punished by their Rocky Helmets. click the se move in front of these guys if they r in front of you. if you dont have hslam you were never breaking clef in the first place Ice Fang is Zamazenta's only option to break through Gliscor and its strongest attack into Landorus-T and its strongest attack into u can technically break landoT over a longer game with sedge but it sure isnt practical Dragonite. Heavy Slam is the preferred last coverage move to hit break through Clefable and render Tapu Lele and Iron Valiant incapable of pivoting in, while Crunch threatens Psychic-types in Slowking-Galar, Slowbro, and Mega Latias while Wild Charge is Zamazenta's strongest attack against Toxapex This move is terrible on non-CB, you could just leave a note abt it and mention it's a potential option for CB but idt it's worth it ngl since pex just scouts u and dips anyw. Heavy-Duty Boots best allows Zamazenta to find opportunites throughout a game to wallbreak it doesnt help u find opportunities, change this to increasing longevity, whereas Choice Band provides more immediate power, albeit at the cost of being incredibly prediction-reliant to break through most teams carrying multiple fighting resistances. Rockium Z is a niche alternative to immediately OHKO Zapdos (252 Atk Zamazenta Continental Crush (180 BP) vs. 252 HP / 184+ Def Zapdos: 316-374 (82.2 - 97.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO) and break through Fighting resists such as Clefable and Slowking-Galar without the correct coverage move once properly chipped. Tera Fighting is preferred to push Close Combat's power against neutral targets such as Ogerpon-Wellspring and Alomomola, with chances to OHKO and 2HKO them respectively without Choice Band and muscle through resists such as Tornadus-T with the boost. Alternatively, Tera Steel flips the tables against Choice Scarf Tapu Lele's revenge killing attempts and KO Clefable after minimal chip. Zamazenta can fit on more defensive teams as speed control that forces out offensive terrors such as Ogerpon-Wellspring to supplement a defensive core, or on offensive teams supported by other wallbreakers while providing a temporary defensive backbone. Regardless, its best ally remains Future Sight support from Tapu Lele, Slowking-Galar, or Slowbro, as Zamazenta is most often handled by switching between resistances and physically bulky pivots such as Slowking-Galar, Landorus-T, and Alomomola or stopped in its tracks by Toxapex, which Future Sight punishes by providing lasting relevant massive 3/4 of these guys r regen so it isnt "lasting" damage, particularly versus the latter i think the specification could be nice here, u dont have to add this. Similarly, Pursuit support from Mega Tyranitar or Weavile weakens or removes pivots such as Slowking-Galar, Mega Latias, and Zapdos.

just a reminder that it's Galarian Slowking and not Slowking-Galar btw
