[SET COMMENTS]
* Choice Band Hisuian Goodra looks to use its inferior but still solid Attack stat to surprise and defeat foes such as Hoopa-U, opposing Hisuian Goodra, Volcarona, and Assault Vest Regidrago.
* Heavy Slam deals tons of damage to Diancie, Sylveon, and Primarina.
* Skitter Smack is extremely useful for the Hoopa-U matchup, as it can OHKO even the most bulky variants of it. It's also helpful for non-Focus Blast Iron Crown, as it means it's difficult for Iron Crown to break through.
* Earthquake hits important threats such as non-Counter Hisuian Goodra, Volcarona, Metagross, and non-Air Balloon Heatran.
* The EV spread allows Hisuian Goodra to live a Choice Band Hyperspace Fury from Hoopa-U as well as two Life Orb Moonblasts from Primarina.
* Since Ground- and Fighting-type attacks are quite common in the metagame from Pokemon like Iron Valiant, Haxorus, Ursaluna, and Landorus-T, Pokemon with typings that are quite good against these like Primarina are advised for teammates.

* Earthquake hits important threats such as opposing Hisuian Goodra, as long as they don't carry Counter, on top of non-Air Balloon Metagross, Iron Moth, and Heatran. (i dont like how u grouped these mons into non air balloon as this leads the reader to believe balloon gross and balloon moth are real things, so either seperate the balloon point or remove it. also i dont like moth mention as u can just outrage)
* The EV spread allows Hisuian Goodra to live a Choice Band Hyperspace Fury from Hoopa-U, as well as two Life Orb Moonblasts from Primarina, with the remaining EVs going into Attack.
* Since Ground- and Fighting-type attacks are quite common in the metagame from Pokemon like Great Tusk and Landorus, Pokemon with types that are quite good into these like Primarina are advised for teammates. (dont mention great tusk as ur fighting example, mention things like both shifu or specs val or otherwise.)

* Choice Band Hisuian Goodra looks to surprise and defeat opponents by using its inferior but still solid Attack stat, such as Hoopa-U, opposing Hisuian Goodra, and Assault Vest Regidrago. (Mention volcarona as a matchup it gains)

* Heavy Slam deals tons of damage to Diancie, Sylveon, and Primarina

* Skitter Smack is extremely useful for the Hoopa-U matchup, as it can OHKO even the most bulky variants of it. (You beat non-focus blast Iron Crown as well)

* Earthquake hits important threats such as opposing Hisuian Goodra, as long as they don't carry Counter, on top of Metagross and non-Air Balloon Heatran. (I think we should mention eq being your best click into volcarona [outrage can get confusefished by sub volca])

* The EV spread allows Hisuian Goodra to live a Choice Band Hyperspace Fury from Hoopa-U, as well as two Life Orb Moonblasts from Primarina, with the remaining EVs going into Attack.

* ( add a bullet about what sap sipper allows you to beat )

* Since Ground- and Fighting-type attacks are quite common in the metagame from Pokemon like both Urshifu formes and Landorus, Pokemon with types that are quite good into these like Primarina are advised for teammates. (Lando-T > Landorus as example. I-Val for fightings. Add Ursaluna as ground example since its probably the biggest threat, and perhaps the weakness to haxorus since we r using prim as an example)

* Choice Band Hisuian Goodra looks to surprise and defeat opponents by using use its inferior but still solid Attack stat (RC) to surprise and defeat foes such as Hoopa-U, opposing Hisuian Goodra, Volcarona, and Assault Vest Regidrago.
* Heavy Slam deals tons of damage to Diancie, Sylveon, and Primarina.
* Skitter Smack is extremely useful for the Hoopa-U matchup, as it can OHKO even the most bulky variants of it. It's also helpful for non-Focus Blast Iron Crown, as its chance of lowering Special Attack (Skitter Smack is guaranteed to lower the stat if it hits) means it's difficult for Iron Crown to break through.
* Earthquake hits important threats such as opposing non-Counter Hisuian Goodra, as long as they don't carry Counter, on top of Volcarona, Metagross, and non-Air Balloon Heatran.
* The EV spread allows Hisuian Goodra to live a Choice Band Hyperspace Fury from Hoopa-U (RC) as well as two Life Orb Moonblasts from Primarina, with the remaining EVs going into Attack. (I don't think mentioning this is necessary unless there are other important benchmarks.)
* Since Ground- and Fighting-type attacks are quite common in the metagame from Pokemon like Iron Valiant, Haxorus, Ursaluna, (AC) and Landorus-T, Pokemon with types typings that are quite good into against these like Primarina are advised for teammates.
