Choice Scarf Landorus-T is a great choice of role compression with various utilities such as a Ground- and Electric-type immunity, a soft check into Pokemon like Mega Mawile and Mega Medicham, speed control, and sometimes even a late-game cleaner. Thanks to Intimidate and a powerful Earthquake, Landorus-T has plentiful opportunities to pivot on forced switches with U-turn against threats like Iron Boulder and Galarian Slowking. Stone Edge hits Flying-types like Zapdos, Moltres, Mega Charizard Y, and Tornadus-T as well as Volcarona. Defog is very effective since most entry hazard setters like Heatran, Mega Diancie, and Garganacl don't like being hit by Earthquake, which prevents them from staying in against Landorus-T and gives it easy opportunities to Defog. Explosion as an alternative allows Landorus-T to trade with threats like Ogerpon-W, Darkrai, and Mega Lopunny as well as weakened checks like Gliscor, especially when Landorus-T is low HP. Tera Water removes Landorus-T's weakness against Water-types like Urshifu-R, Mega Swampert, and Hisuian Samurott, as well as common Ice-type moves like Ice Beam from Darkrai and Ice Shard from Weavile, and also gives Landorus-T a chance to revenge kill Volcarona. The given EVs make sure that Landorus-T outspeeds Zamazenta and survives a Choice Specs Moonblast from Iron Valiant and two Zen Headbutt from Mega Medicham after Stealth Rock. Teammates like Tapu Lele, Iron Valiant, and Darkrai appreciate Landorus-T for bringing them in safely via U-turn. In return, they can threaten walls like Alomomola and Gliscor for Landorus-T. Landorus-T can be worn down quickly due to Stealth Rock and its lack of recovery, so teammates like Alomomola and Ferrothorn are helpful to protect it from being overwhelmed too quickly by foes like Zamazenta and Mega Lopunny, both of which can also check Water-types like Mega Swampert for Landorus-T. Additionally, Alomomola can heal Landorus-T with Wish and form a pivoting core with it. Other pivots like Rotom-W and Iron Crown bring in Landorus-T safely and form VoltTurn cores with it.

Choice Scarf Landorus-T is a great choice of role compression with various utilities as a Ground- and Electric-type immunity, a physically defensive pivot, a Speed control, and sometimes even a late game cleaner. can briefly mention checking stuff like lop U-turn provides momentum with Intimidate and its 145 Attack, which enables Landorus-T freely switch in at attackers like Iron Blouder and pivots like Galarian Slowking, threaten them with a powerful Earthquake, and bring in teammates relying on pivots like Hisuian Samurott. <- can note that u turn is super spammable and u can click it as a midground when faced with a 50/50, prolly gonna reword the sentence in GP tho its kinda confusing Defog on Landorus-T is very effective since most entry hazard setters like Heatran, Ferrothorn, and Garganacl don't like being hit by its Earthquake. <- elaborate a bit; dont like eq, so? Explosion as an alternative allows Landorus-T to trade with threats like Ogerpon-W, Darkrai, and Mega Lopunny, especially when Landorus-T is low HP or something similar, basically how when ur dying u can boom. Stone Edge hits Flying-types like Zapdos, Moltres, and Tornadus-T, as well as Mega Charizard Y and Volcarona yard is a flying lol. Tera water removes Landorus-T's weakness against Water-types like Urshifu-R, Mega Swampert, and Hisuian Samurott, as well as common Ice-type coverage moves like Ice Beam from Darkrai, which also gives Landorus-T a chance to revenge kill Volcarona. The given EVs makes sure that Landorus-T outspeeds Zamazenta and survives a Choice Specs Moonblast from Iron Valiant and two Zen Headbutts from Mega Medicham after Stealth Rock. <- explain a bittle more, why is adem cook good? how do these benefit lando? Teammates like Tapu Lele, Iron Valiant, and Darkrai appreciate Landorus-T for bringing them in safely via U-turn. In return, they can threaten physical walls like Alomomola and Zapdos for Landorus-T. Landorus-T can be worn down quickly due to entry hazards Stealth Rock and its lack of recovery, so teammates like Alomomola and Ferrothorn are helpful to share its pivot work ferro aint a pivot, did i misunderstand? reword if so, both of which also resists Water-types for Landorus-T. Additionally, Alomomola can heal Landorus-T with Wish and form a VoltTurn core with it.

i originally meant that u could say "these help lando perform its role by taking hits better yada yada" but when i think abt it again u can just ignore that comment

Choice Scarf Landorus-T is a great choice of role compression with various utilities as a Ground- and Electric-type immunity, a physically defensive pivot soft check into Pokemon like Mega Mawile and Mega Medicham “Physically defensive pivot” isn’t really true as it is more a soft check into physical attackers than something that switches in constantly into them, a Speed control, and sometimes even a late game cleaner. U-turn is very spammable with Intimidate How does Intimidate make U-turn more “spammable”? There isn’t really a correlation between the 2 and its 145 Attack and provides momentum against attackers like Iron Blouder Boulder You may want to include another example like Waterpon (or anything else offensive really just using Waterpon as an example) since u U-turn on that as well and pivots like Galarian Slowking don’t you always eq into this Rotom-W and Corvknight To bring in teammates relying on pivots like Hisuian Samurott and Mega Medicham. Alternatively you can do stuff like raging bolt as well in the teammates that need pivots With a 50/50 of powerful Earthquake sentence doesn’t really feel neccessary here as it’s referring to prediction and idt that is good to put in an analysis Defog is very effective since most entry hazard setters like Heatran, Ferrothorn Mega Diancie, Ferro against this spread takes 36% at most and gets lefties and leech recovery; it’s not like u can pivot on it safely either and Garganacl don't like being hit by its Earthquake, which prevents them from staying in against Landorus-T and gives it easy opportunities to Defog. Explosion as an alternative allows Landorus-T to trade with threats like Ogerpon-W, Darkrai, and Mega Lopunny especially when Landorus-T is low HP You should probably mention how explosion can also take down a weakened Gliscor. Stone Edge hits Flying-types like Zapdos, Moltres, Mega Charizard Y, and Tornadus-T, as well as Volcarona. Tera wWater removes Landorus-T's weakness against Water-types like Urshifu-R, Mega Swampert, and Hisuian Samurott, as well as common Ice-type coverage moves like Ice Beam from Darkrai include Weav here as well because of shard which and also gives Landorus-T a chance to revenge kill Volcarona. The given EVs makes sure that Landorus-T outspeeds Zamazenta and survives a Choice Specs Moonblast from Iron Valiant and two Zen Headbutts from Mega Medicham after Stealth Rock. Teammates like Tapu Lele, Iron Valiant, and Darkrai appreciate Landorus-T for bringing them in safely via U-turn. In return, they can threaten physical walls like Alomomola and Zapdos Gliscor You definitely needed a Glisc mention here plus zap is already hit by sedge. Also it isn’t very safe to u turn on zap for Landorus-T. Landorus-T can be worn down quickly due to Stealth Rock and its lack of recovery, so teammates like Alomomola and Ferrothorn are helpful to protect it from being overwhelmed too quickly, Since “overwhelmed” is used I’d mention what mons it can get overwhelmed by, probably stuff like zama mmedi and mmaw both of which also resists Water-types for Landorus-T Which waters?. Additionally, Alomomola can heal Landorus-T with Wish and form a VoltTurn pivoting core with it. It may be confusing for readers when they see “VoltTurn” because no volt switch user is being used Other pivots like Rotom-W and Iron Crown bring in Landorus-T safely and form VoltTurn cores with it. I feel that these pivots really make Lando really annoying to play around
