[SET COMMENTS]

Iron Moth is a powerful cleaner that is frequently able to snowball quickly with Fiery Dance, enabling it to break past would-be checks such as Gliscor and Landorus-T. Iron Moth uses Energy Ball to hit Water Types like Alomomola and Hisuian Samurott; it could also use Psychic to hit Toxapex and Mega Venusaur. It also has access to Dazzling Gleam to hit Dragon-types such as Raging Bolt, Garchomp, and Mega Latios; alternatively, Iron Moth could use Substitute. This allows Iron Moth to dodge status moves from Gholdengo and Galarian Slowking, as well as blocking priority from Kingambit and Raging Bolt. Iron Moth has 132 EVs invested into Special Attack to allow its Special Attack stat to be one point less then its Speed stat. This allows Iron Moth’s to get a Speed boost from its Booster Energy. Iron Moth could use other items if it is paired with Tapu Koko; for example, Heavy Duty Boots help to preserve its longevity.

Iron Moth is often inconsistent, as it struggles against common Pokemon such as Heatran, Ting Lu, and Mega Tyranitar and is weak to Stealth Rock, meaning it functions best on hyper offense structures. Great Tusk is an excellent partner, as it can take out Heatran and Mega Tyranitar for Iron Moth and can remove entry hazards. Iron Moth appreciates other Pokemon with Rapid Spin like Terapagos and other forms of hazard prevention like Hatterene and Mega Diancie. Iron Moth also values teammates like Volcarona and Raging Bolt, as they share checks like Mega Tyranitar, Heatran, and Ting Lu. Iron Moth matches up well into Ferrothorn, Corviknight, and Gholdengo, making Pokemon that have a poor matchup into them good partners. Tapu Lele, which can block priority using Psychic Surge, and Ogerpon-W, which breaks past Pokemon like Alomomola and Heatran, specifically enjoy Iron Moth’s presence on their team, as they all struggle with these foes. Iron Moth also values Stealth Rock to make it harder for its checks, like Mega Tyranitar, to switch in. Mega Diancie and Landorus-T both are able to set and deny hazards while doing significant damage before they faint through Endeavor and Explosion, respectively. Tapu Koko is another great partner for Iron Moth, as it can set Electric Terrain; this makes Iron Moth less reliant on Booster Energy to outspeed foes such as Mega Lopunny and Zamazenta. Tapu Koko can also offer valuable support by setting up dual screens; these let Iron Moth take hits from Pokemon like Booster Energy Iron Valiant and Terapagos variants lacking Earth Power that could take an attack from or outspeed Iron Moth.

Iron Moth is a powerful setup sweeper cleaner which is frequently able to snowball quickly. It’s STAB move Fiery Dance is has a 50% chance to boost Iron Moth’s Special Attack allowing for Iron Moth to quickly get out of hand. Iron Moth uses Energy Ball to hit Water Types like Alomomola and Toxapex. It could also use Psychic to hit Glalarian Slowking, hit harder by Fiery Dance and Toxapex or use Dazzling Gleam to hit Raging Bolt, Garchomp, and Roaring Moon. Alternatively Iron Moth could use the move Substitute. This would enable it to better sweep Pokemon that could take hits from Iron Moth’s attacks. This is an extremely general statement, you have to give examples as to what it would set up Substitutes on and what this lets it beat. Iron Moth has 132 EVs invested into Special Attack to allow it’s Special Attack stat to be one point less then it’s Speed stat. This allows Iron Moth’s to get a speed boost from it’s Booster Energy. Mention how other items can be used if Tapu Koko is a teammate.

Iron Moth is often inconsistent why is it inconsistent? what does it struggle against? you need to be more specific when talking about situations like this. meaning it functions best on Hyper Offense structures. You don't rly mention Iron Moth's good matchups, talk about its benefits as an offensive pokemon, like how it threatens common Pokemon like Ferrothorn. Because of how quickly Iron Moth can snowball Pokemon like Roaring Moon, and Volcarona love its presence as Iron Moth can often pave the way for them to sweep. Again, how does it help them? Do they beat down each other's shared checks? Iron Moth does however struggle with Heatran, Ting-Lu, and Blissey. Iron Moth also struggles with starting to snowball and doesn’t like switching in on hazards. You state beforehand that it can snowball quickly but here you say that it struggles to snowball. Are you saying it struggles to get going if the Pokemon you mention above are on the other team? This causes Great Tusk to be an excellent partner as it can remove hazards and can take out Iron Moth’s checks. Iron Moth also values a Pokémon like Ogerpon-Wellspring that can wear down a team for Iron Moth to come in and sweep as well as covering each other’s weaknesses well. What does Iron Moth beat that Tusk and Wellspring struggle with?

If we are talking about HO you have to mention hazard setters or screen setters like Lando-T, Mega Diancie, Tapu Koko, etc. Tapu Koko should be mentioned anyway because of potential eterrain support.

This needs a lot of work. Please review the Spelling and Grammar standards and let me know if you have any questions about implementation, then I'll recheck it.

Iron Moth is a powerful cleaner which is frequently able to snowball quickly. It’s STAB move Fiery Dance has a 50% chance to boost Iron Moth’s Special Attack allowing for Iron Moth to quickly get out of hand. Iron Moth uses Energy Ball to hit Water Types like Alomomola and Toxapex. Hit neutrally/harder by Psychic, choose a different Water-type. It could also use Psychic to hit Toxapex and Mega Venusaur or use. Phrasing made it sound like a choice between Psychic and Dgleam, which isn't what the set says. Dazzling Gleam to hit Raging Bolt, Garchomp, and Roaring Moon. Alternatively Iron Moth could use the move Substitute. This allows Iron Moth to take a hit from Pokemon like Dragonite, Terapagos, and Ting Lu that would normally survive an attack from Iron Moth and hit it back. Also mention dodging paralysis from things like Slowbro. Iron Moth has 132 EVs invested into Special Attack to allow its Special Attack stat to be one point less then its Speed stat. This allows Iron Moth’s to get a speed boost from its Booster Energy. Alternatively Iron Moth could use other items if it is paired with an electric terrain setter like Tapu Koko. Leftovers and Heavy Duty Boots help to preserve its longevity, while Life Orb or Choice Specs increase Iron Moth’s damage output. Boots is probably the only one worth mentioning.

Iron Moth is often inconsistent as it struggles against common Pokemon, meaning it functions best on hyper offense structures. Iron Moth struggles with Heatran, Ting-Lu, and Chansey, as well as not liking to switch in on hazards. This causes Great Tusk to be an excellent partner as it can remove hazards and can take out Heatran and Chansey for Iron Moth. Talk about how Great Tusk removes hazards for it, and then mention other forms of hazard control like Pagos or the Magic bouncers. Iron Moth also values a Pokémon like Volcarona add some more examples which it shares checks with, allowing said checks to be worn down for each other. Iron Moth matches up well into Ferrothorn, Landorus-T, Imoth doesn't win this unless it gets fiery dance boosts, lets find another example and Gholdengo. This makes Pokemon that have a poor matchup into the aforementioned Pokemon good partners. Specifically, Roaring Moon, Ogerpon-W, and Dragonite enjoy Iron Moth’s presence on their team. Iron Moth also values stealth rocks to make it harder for its checks to switch in. Mega Diancie and Landorus-T both are able to set hazards while doing significant damage before they faint through Endeavor and Explosion respectively. Tapu Koko is another great partner for Iron Moth as it can set Electric Terrain. This allows Iron Moth to not have to run Booster Energy to activate its ability. Tapu Koko can also offer valuable support through setting up Light Screen and Reflect. These let Iron Moth take hits from Pokemon like Scarf Roaring Moon, Booster Iron Valiant, and Terapagos that could live an attack or out speed to damage Iron Moth.

This allows Iron Moth to take a hit from Pokemon like Dragonite, Terapagos, and Ting Lu that would normally survive an attack from Iron Moth and hit it back while also allowing Iron Moth to dodge status moves. its mostly the status part from moth that makes sub useful against gholdengo, glowking and clefable; u could also mention sub blocking priority from kingambit raging bolt and urshifu-r Iron Moth has 132 EVs invested into Special Attack to allow its Special Attack stat to be one point less then its Speed stat. This allows Iron Moth’s to get a speed boost from its Booster Energy. Alternatively Iron Moth could use other items if it is paired with an electric terrain setter like this suggests there are multiple eterrain setters....... we're not using pincurchin Tapu Koko, like Heavy Duty Boots help to preserve its longevity.

Specifically, Tapu Lele, Ogerpon-W, and Dragonite enjoy Iron Moth’s presence on their team as they all struggle with the previously mentioned Pokemon. how do they benefit iron moth tho? u could say (at the start of the sentence) that lele sets psy terrain to block priority for moth, or that wogerpon helps break past bulky water types like mola Iron Moth also values stealth rocks to make it harder for its checks such as? to switch in. Mega Diancie and Landorus-T both are able to set and deny hazards while doing significant damage before they faint through Endeavor and Explosion respectively.
