  • Bisharp is one of the only viable Defiant users, capable of punishing foes with the omnipresent Intimidate. Additionally, it is one of the few Dark-types in the metagame, allowing it to check Jellicent and Cresselia, and it can leverage Sucker Punch to check faster threats, notably Latios. Bisharp, however, is held back by its middling speed tier, and its Sucker Punch can be played around with redirection. Its low Special Defense also means that stray neutral special moves, such as Thundurus's Thunderbolt, will do massive damage. Finally, the three Intimidate users, Landorus-T, Hitmontop, and Scrafty, all can hit Bisharp super effectively, mitigating its ability to snowball with Defiant.
  • Night Slash is Bisharp's most reliable STAB move, OHKOing Jellicent with Dark Gem. Low Kick provides excellent coverage alongside Bisharp's Dark-type STAB attacks by covering Dark- and Steel-resistant Pokemon, such as Heatran and Tyranitar.
  • Life Orb secures an OHKO on Heatran and Kyurem-B with Low Kick after Stealth Rock damage and allows Bisharp to fire off a strong Sucker Punch. Dark Gem grants a one-time boost to Sucker Punch, allowing Bisharp to do massive damage to a faster threat, such as OHKO Choice Scarf Landorus-T at +1. It also allows Bisharp to OHKO Jellicent with Night Slash.
  • Landorus-T is a good teammate because Bisharp benefits greatly from Stealth Rock support, which puts foes in KO range of Sucker Punch. Landorus-T can also check Heatran while benefiting from Bisharp's ability to check Jellicent and Latios. Physical attackers are also excellent teammates, because Bisharp deters Intimidate users from switching in. Choice Band Kyurem-B is another good teammate, as the threat of a Defiant boost can prevent Intimidate, allowing Kyurem-B to fire off strong a Outrage. Bisharp also checks Latios, which is one of the best answers to Choice Band Kyurem-B.

  • Bisharp is the only viable Tornadus Defiant user, capable of punishing the omnipresent Intimidate. Additionally, it is one of the few Dark-types in the metagame, allowing it to check Jellicent and Cresselia, while the access to the rare Sucker Punch lets it checks faster threats, notably Latios. Bisharp, however, is held back by its middling speed tier, oftentimes forcing it to use Sucker Punch, which and its Sucker Punch can be played around with redirection or other non-damaging moves i mean this still is p good bc you sap their offensive pressure. Its low Special Defense also means that stray neutral special moves, such as Thundurus's Thunderbolt, will do massive damage. Finally, the three Intimidate users, Landorus-T, Hitmontop, and Scrafty, all can hit Bisharp super effectively,(add comma) mitigating its ability opportunity to snowball with Defiant.
  • Night Slash is Bisharp's most reliable STAB move, OHKOing Jellicent with Dark Gem. Low Kick provides excellent coverage alongside Bisharp's Dark-type STAB attacks by covering Dark- and Steel-resistant Pokemon, such as Heatran and Tyranitar.
  • Life Orb is the preferred item to give a boost to all of Bisharp's attacks, securing secures an OHKO on Heatran and Kyurem-B with Low Kick after Stealth Rock damage while allowing and allows Bisharp to fire off strong Sucker Punches. Dark Gem can be used for grants a one time boost to Sucker Punch, allowing Bisharp to do massive damage to a faster threat, such as OHKO'ing Choice Scarf Landorus-T at +1. and picks up jellicent with night slash. do we mention sash as a fringe option
  • Bisharp benefits greatly from Stealth Rock support, since it can put Pokemon which put foes in KO range of its Sucker Punch. Physical attackers are also excellent teammates, because Bisharp deters Intimidate users from switching in. Landorus-T can set Stealth Rock and check Heatran while benefiting from Bisharp's ability to check Jellicent and Latios.

1/2 for sure
 
I don't need to quote check this like usual because besides the last paragraph and then modifying a thing or two above it, it's very good.

The way I think we should restructure the last paragraph is as follows:
  • Landorus-T is a good teammate because it has rocks & the mons it puts in range of sucker/night slash with them. the reason I want you to lead with this is because the only other good rocker is tar and tar isn't typically part of sharp structures but we can discuss this if you want
  • the things lando checks and what sharp checks for lando in return
  • the other physical attackers that pair well like cbkb and that sharp checks latios for it. & the info about the intimidate deterrence for it & in general
I think it should flow better this way. basically, just reorganize the info you wrote. if you need help lmk

2/2 but show me before tagging gp
