[SET COMMENTS]
Assault Vest Tornadus-T acts as a soft check to many special attackers, such as Iron Valiant, Tapu Lele, and Volcarona, safely switching in and out of these threats thanks to Regenerator. It can use its Speed and respectable power to outspeed and threaten out foes like the aforementioned Pokemon, allowing it to either bring teammates in safely with U-turn, deal free damage to a switch-in, or cripple the switch-in with Knock Off. Knock Off allows Tornadus-T to remove crucial items from switch-ins, like Leftovers from Heatran and Heavy-Duty Boots from Zapdos. Heat Wave allows Tornadus-T to threaten Ferrothorn and Mega Scizor. Tera Steel lets Tornadus-T flip its matchup against foes like Iron Boulder and Tapu Koko and crucially resist Stealth Rock instead of being weak to it. Tera Fighting with Superpower over Heat Wave is an option to easily beat Darkrai and lure Mega Tyranitar. The given Speed EVs allow Tornadus-T to outspeed Iron Valiant, 244 HP maximizes Regenerator recovery, and the remainder is dumped into Special Defense. Tornadus-T works best on offensive teams that have the firepower to make use of the free switches that it forces. Packing wallbreakers like Zamazenta and Iron Valiant to come in on Tornadus-T's checks like Blissey, Heatran, and Raging Bolt is required to make full use of its pivoting. Carrying Assault Vest means that Tornadus-T lacks Heavy-Duty Boots and cannot use Defog, meaning that it requires heavy support in clearing entry hazards, especially since it is weak to Stealth Rock. Therefore, hazard removers like Landorus-T and Rotom-W are good allies; they also cover its weaknesses to Electric and Ice, respectively. Both of these examples have ways to deal with scary physical attackers, with Intimidate on Landorus-T and Will-O-Wisp on Rotom-W. Knock Off absorbers like Mega Scizor and Gliscor are also good teammates, as Tornadus-T does not appreciate losing its item to foes like Landorus-T and opposing Tornadus-T. Finally, other allies to cover its weaknesses to common foes like Raging Bolt, Weavile, and Mega Tyranitar are appreciated, making Ferrothorn, Mega Scizor, and Alomomola good teammates; Ferrothorn sets hazards, which is synergistic with Tornadus-T removing Heavy-Duty Boots from foes like Zapdos and Skeledirge, while the last two along with Landorus-T and Rotom-W are also notable for being fellow pivots, forming a simple pivoting core with Tornadus-T.

(Mention how they both have ways to deal with threatening physical attackers through Intimidate on Lando / Will-o-Wisp on Rotom) Finally, other allies to cover its weaknesses to common foes like Raging Bolt, Weavile and Mega Tyranitar are appreciated, making Ferrothorn, Mega Scizor, and Alomomola good teammates; the latter two along with Landorus-T and Rotom-W are also notable for being fellow pivots to form a simple pivoting core with Tornadus-T. (Ferro sets hazards, which is synergistic with Torn knocking boots / lefties from its answers)
