Thanks to its high Attack stat and almost unresisted STAB combination, Choice Band Terrakion makes for an excellent wallbreaker that is very difficult to switch into. Earthquake helps it deal with Poison-types such as Fezandipiti and Okidogi. Quick Attack gives it a form of priority to deal with faster, weakened Pokemon like Cyclizar and Noivern. Justified allows Terrakion to switch into Dark-type attacks and punish moves like Knock Off from Cyclizar to boost its Attack. Tera Blast paired with Tera Ghost gives Terrakion a Ghost-type move that threatens a 2HKO on bulky Psychic-types like Slowbro and Reuniclus. Tera Rock boosts Terrakion's Stone Edge even further, making it very difficult to switch into and guaranteeing a 2HKO on Slowbro. Tera Rock helps Terrakion defensively by removing its weaknesses to Fairy and Psychic and giving it a resistance to Flying-type attacks, making it much better into revenge killers like Choice Scarf Gardevoir and Talonflame. Tera Ghost also removes its weaknesses to Fairy and Psychic, but it also removes its weaknesses to Fighting and Ground, which gives Terrakion an opportunity to take out common Choice Scarf users such as Mienshao, Okidogi, and Krookodile. Tera Ghost pairs well with Justified, deterring opposing Pokemon from hitting it with super effective Dark-type attacks in fear of boosting its Attack.

Choice Band Terrakion can fit on a plethora of balance and bulky offense teams thanks to its great Speed tier and its excellent power as a wallbreaker. Entry hazard support from Pokemon like Chesnaught, Empoleon, and Krookodile can help it pick up 2HKOs on bulky physical walls like Hippowdon and Slowbro and rack up residual damage on revenge killers like Choice Scarf Gengar and Okidogi switching in. Terrakion appreciates pivot support to get it in safely; therefore, Pokemon like Cyclizar, Fezandipiti, and Thundurus can keep up momentum by pivoting on defensive switch-ins like Empoleon and Krookodile and create opportunities for Terrakion to attack. Terrakion appreciates Future Sight support from Pokemon like Slowbro and Reuniclus, as it can use Close Combat more freely while Future Sight punishes Fairy-, Flying- and particularly Poison-types that switch in like Fezandipiti, Noivern, and Galarian Weezing. Lots of common Choice Scarf users such as Gardevoir, Galarian Zapdos, and Mienshao can revenge kill Terrakion, making defensive partners that can switch into the aforementioned Pokemon very valuable. Physical tanks such as Hippowdon and Galarian Weezing and special walls like Empoleon can switch into the revenge killers while offering utility like entry hazards and Rocky Helmet chip damage. Terrakion weakening opposing Pokemon like Hippowdon, Jirachi, and Hisuian Goodra allows teammates like Revavroom, Choice Scarf Krookodile, and Yanmega to come in afterwards and finish the job.

Thanks to its high Attack stat and amazing STAB combination, Choice Band Terrakion makes for an excellent wallbreaker able to 2HKO most Pokemon that don't resist its STAB combination find a better wording here since nothing resists the Fighting and Rock coverage. Earthquake helps it deal with Poison-types such as Fezandipiti and Okidogi. Quick Attack gives Terrakion a form of priority to deal with faster, weakened Pokemon examples. mention quickly its ability Tera Blast Ghost say clearly that Tera Blast works in conjunction with Tera Ghost threatens a 2HKO on bulky Psychic-types like Slowbro and Reuniclus. Tera Rock boosts Terrakion's Stone Edge even further, making it very difficult to switch into and guaranteeing a 2HKO on Slowbro. Tera Rock helps Terrakion defensively by removing its Fairy- and Psychic-type weaknesses and giving it a resistance to Flying-type attacks making it much better into Choice Scarf revenge killers like Choice Scarf Gardevoir and Talonflame Galarian Zapdos. Tera Ghost also removes its Fairy- and Psychic-type weaknesses in to ? Fighting- and Ground-type which gives Terrakion a better matchup into common Choice Scarf users such as Mienshao, Okidogi, and Krookodile. add that it combos well with its ability since people do not want to throw Dark-type moves at it Tera Ghost also gives Terrakion the option of using the aforementioned Tera Blast to deal with Psychic-types.

Choice Band Terrakion can fit on a plethora of teams state the archetypes thanks to its great Speed tier and its excellent role as a wallbreaker. Entry hazard support from Pokemon like Chesnaught, Empoleon, and Krookodile can help it pick up 2HKOs on bulky physical walls like Hippowdon and Slowbro and rack up residual damage on revenge killers switching in. Terrakion appreciates pivot support to get it in safely, Pokemon like Cyclizar, Fezandipiti, and Thundurus can keep up momentum by pivoting on defensive switch-ins examples and create opportunities for Terrakion to attack. Lots of common Choice Scarf users such as Gardevoir, Galarian Zapdos, and Mienshao can revenge kill Terrakion making defensive partners that can switch into the aforementioned Pokemon very valuable. Physical tanks such as Hippowdon and Amoonguss Galarian Weezing and special walls like Empoleon can switch into the revenge killers while offering utility like entry hazards and Rocky Helmet chip damage. I feel like these 2 sentences can be merged to make it more natural Terrakion appreaties having the opposing physical walls weakened, special wallbreakers or Pokemon such as Hisuian Zoroark can disguise as Terrakion to lure in physical walls and weakening them, paving the way for Terrakion to clean up. oftentimes it's not Terrakion's role to clean, its role is to weaken the team to then let a teammate clean, so name such partners (Revavroom, DD Necrozma, Scarf Krookodile...) you can also mention which Pokemon appreciate Terrakion being able to absorb Knock Off attempts from defensive threats
Good job!

This sentence needed some restructuring, you can either follow the changes I suggested or rewrite it in a different way.
