[SET COMMENTS]
This set maximizes Snorlax's ability to tank hits and KO in return with its great coverage options. The physical bulk investment lets Snorlax survive a Bolt Beak from Choice Scarf Dracozolt while the special bulk guarantees survival from a Choice Specs Sylveon's Hyper Beam. Giga Impact OHKOes neutral targets such as Rotom-A. Its coverage options in Earthquake, Darkest Lariat, and Heavy Slam hit Pokemon such as Excadrill, Indeedee,and Sylveon for super effective damage. Additional targets for Heavy Slam include metagame threats such as Aromatisse and Mimikyu. Heat Crash is an option that can be used against Pokemon such as Vikavolt and Ferrothorn.

Although Snorlax is a great physical attacker, it does lose to common physical threats such as Sawk, Choice Band Galarian Darmanitan, and Conkeldurr. This makes Fairy-type teammates such as Sylveon and Aromatisse great partners. They also appreciate Snorlax's ability to KO Steel-types such as Excadrill and Aegislash. Snorlax also pairs well with physical walls such as Galarian Corsola, as they have excellent defensive synergy.

This set maximizes Snorlax’s ability to tank hits and KO in return with its great coverage options. The physical investment of 12 HP and 252 Defense it used to survive a Bolt Beak from Choice Scarf Dracozolt. That 12 HP is used in conjunction with 8 Special Defense in order to guarantee survival from a Choice Specs Slyveon Hyper Beam. Giga Impact is the most viable choice for a high base power STAB move, OHKO’ing the likes of Sylveon and Haxorus Slam gets Sylveon, Outrage gets Haxorus, Giga is for OHKOing stuff like Choice Rotom and other Neutral Targets as well as KOs stuff w/o need for the coverage move (describe how it's a flex move that gives it MUs from Outrage / Heavy Slam / EQ) (Also it's good for Vikavolt). Its coverage options in Earthquake, Darkest Lariat (mostly for Psychics, ghosts are weak to other moves), and Heavy Slam hit pokemon such as Chandelure, Excadrill, and Hatterene for Super-Effective damage. Mention Heat Crash and Outrage as options.

Although Snorlax is a great physical attacker, it does lose to common physically attacking threats such as Sawk, Choice Band Galarian Darmanitan, and Conkeldurr. This makes teammates such as Sylveon and Aromatisse great partners. They also appreciate Snorlax’s ability to KO Steel-types such as Excadrill and Aegislash. Add more stuff here, like how Snorlax + Physical Wall is good as Snorlax acts as a special body and the Physical wall acts as a check to physical attackers.

That 12 HP is used in conjunction with 8 Special Defense in order to guarantee survival from a Choice Specs Slyveon Hyper Beam. Giga Impact is the most viable choice for a high base power STAB move, OHKO’ing neutral targets such as the Rotom Fomes. Its coverage options in Earthquake, Darkest Lariat, and Heavy Slam hit pokemon such as Indeedee, Excadrill (swap order of Excadrill and Indeedee), and Sylveon (heavy slam also hits aromatisse and mimi super effectively, which are both important. I think you should mention those.) for Super-Effective damage. Heat Crash and Outrage are options that can be used against pokemon such as Vikivolt and Haxorus (does it hit anything else? gimpact KOs haxorus).

Although Snorlax is a great physical attacker, it does lose to common physically attacking threats such as Sawk, Choice Band Galarian Darmanitan, and Conkeldurr. This makes Fairy-type teammates such as Sylveon and Aromatisse great partners. They also appreciate Snorlax’s ability to KO Steel-types such as Excadrill and Aegislash. Snorlax also synergizes well with physical walls such as Corsola-G as they both cover their respective defensive weaknesses.

very nice. go spell Sylveon and Formes right before a GPer sees it. swap excadrill & indeedee order to represent the same order you mention Snorlax's coverage. if Outrage doesn't hit anything else, remove it from the analyses cause gimpact KOs hax. @me when done
