A soldier in the skies and an expert in combat is the Valiant Pokemon, Braviary. Its sky-high Attack paired with decent coverage allows it to break through many Pokemon like Vileplume, Sirfetch'd, Arcanine, and Diancie. Its serviceable typing provides an immunity to Ghost, allowing it to check unpatriotic subversives like Decidueye and Golurk. Defiant synergizes well with entry hazard setters like Garbodor and Dragalge to punish Defog from Mantine or Comfey. Close Combat decimates Steel- and Rock-types like Copperajah and Tyrantrum that resist Brave Bird. Iron Head targets Diancie and finishes off weakened foes without drawbacks. Pokemon like Drapion, Palossand, and Nasty Plot Celebi should be used to check Iron Defense Bronzong and other defensive Pokemon like Mudsdale and Garbodor. Offensive Water-type absorbers like Toxicroak and Heliolisk are also encouraged to check Blastoise, Vaporeon, and Inteleon. Electric-resistant Pokemon like Celebi, Decidueye, and Dragalge check Heliolisk and Rotom-C. Maximum Speed with a Jolly nature outspeeds neutral base 85s like Kingdra, Toxicroak, and Duraludon.

A soldier in the skies and prowess in combat is the valiant Pokemon, Braviary. Its high attack accompanied with decent coverage allows it to check many Pokemon like Vileplume, Sirfetch'd, Arcanine, and Diancie.

Smh if you are going with the puns you might as well say its "sky high attack" to follow through. I dislike usage of the word check though as you do not OHKO all of these (i.e: Arcanine and Diancie can live) and they can do a large chunk back. I'd rather you use "break" instead of "check" as it captures the essence of Braviary here a little better.

Pokemon like Drapion, Palossand, or Nasty Plot Celebi should be used to notably check Iron Defense Bronzong and other defensive Pokemon like Mudsdale and Diancie.

I think I would mention another wall over Diancie here as the main point of this set is to lure Diancie, so listing it as a prospective wall like Bronzong and Mudsdale is probably not ideal. Otherwise, this is swell.

Rest is superb, great job! 1/1 roxiee have a good week my friend
